Me and my friend wanot to go out BSJAing this weekend but the only show we can find that is jumping from BN to 1.20 is Limes farm and my friend doesn't really like it there so does anyone know of anywhere else?
What a bummer!! Its so frustrating since they brought out these stupid new rules

I thought that at the time as well....as i was planning (dreaming !) to be jumping 1.20m's very quickly. However, if you saw the car park at Crockstead on sunday you would understand why they have done it. It was heaving until the 1.10m started....and was empty by the end of it They had 2 entries for the 1.15m, and probably none for the 1.20m
Why are all these show centres holding shows during the week?? Dont they know people work LOL

The reason RL hold their bigger classes on a tuesday is because that is when all the Pro riders go there to jump. They ARE working....and generally they are the people who will jump the 1.20m+ classes. Obviously the few privateers competing at that level suffer
Interestingly, back in the 80's when we jumping the circuit....most shows had at least a 1.25m / 1.30m class, and many more had bigger than that too
A 'normal' winter indoor schedule at Crabbet Park or Ardingly (yes, they used to hold indoor BSJA at Ardingly !) would have been Disco, Newcomers, Foxhunter, Grade C (or B&C) and then an Accumulator or something big as the last class
