Got some sliders and want to practice some kneedown action but can't find a decent large roundabout in my area where it is pretty quiet. Does anyone know any decent ones in Hampton / Surrey?

Cheers!

The real skill is on one of them painted ones...
Becareful not to ride on the white lines.

Still i'd love to see someone do that, even on a mini moto would be cool.

If its a huge roundie you will have to go really fast to get it down. Start on a smallish one at around 30mph first

There's a pretty small one where we go in Theale, not painted but about the same size... though the roads a bit wider than your average white painted roundabout because 17 tonne lorries regularly go past there.

Wouldn't be any probs at all on a minimoto... I Can pretty much gmkd in less than the width of my road Smile

OMG. I've been looking for a bike chat group like this for a long bloody time. Good to eventually find one.

The M25 orpington turnoff is good at night, anything from 50-100mph.

Here is a little vid I took from the Oakdene/Farningham meet a while ago.

I know the one, but they are too busy. I go around back of cineworld where there are loads of small roundabouts. If you're free a Sunday evening or something contact us and show me some 'juicy roundabouts' to practise on!
