Useing google earth to find street spots?

[Jarryd M]

I used to do it but I know most of the spots around my area and I haven't found much outside of it.

it kinda takes the excitement out of riding around looking for spots

The only problem is you can only see the spots near the main road. Use maps instead and look for gradients in sattelite view. i've found so many parks that way.

its good for finding pools and ditches i guess, and maybe weird rock formation type things but not much else.

yeah thats it hah. alll the local bmxers talk about it but say theres no way the locals would let a scooter ride that park

 

[coryM]

Dude go at night or somtimes during the day on a weekday. All the heshers usually BBQ on sundays apparently. At least when they would work on it they did. Thats the scary time to show up on a scooter lol

 

[blakebailor]
