Chatham Bmx. If you haven't noticed, bmx is quite a big sport in Chatham-Kent, being a small community there isn't many places where you can participate in the sport. Recently the municipality has banned riders from riding the skatepark! This is ridiculous and outrageous! Bmx is not just a sport but a lifestyle and changes your total outlook upon life, and everything surrounding you. This petition is to support bmx, remove this stupid law or build a new park. Ride on people!

    • I don't live in chattam or chattam kent really I live in essex county but really skateboarding isn't the only sport that you can go off of ramps and infact BMXing is a bit cheaper saying for a good deck it cost like about around $100-$200 for a peice of wooden on wheels however with that money you can just buy a BMX anyways there is alot of creative things you can do with a bike on a ramp it's really fun and very active and other thing personaly I think the skateboarding population is starting to shrink so when the people decide that skateboarding sucks and BMXing is better then the parks will be pretty much a ghost town and you'll have all that wasted land for nothing.

    • With the growing interest in BMX biking in Chatham-Kent and the ongoing drive to find positive activities for our youth to participate in, I am deeply disappointed in the decision to prohibit bikes from the skate park. Does the damage you believe bikes cause to the park not equal the damage the skateboards themselves do? If the concrete can sustain impact from skateboards, should it not be able to handle that of bikes?

    • skateboarding & biking go hand in hand, it should be about what the kids want, & not the money hungry municipality. it's public, & should be shared both with skaters & bikers.

    • Why not let bmxers ride at the park??? Very unfair and stupid. Let them ride!!! Would you rather have them riding in the streets causing trouble?
