loved watching kickstart and junior kickstart as a nipper 😀
Yeah man. Used to love Kick Start.
That's such a memory - I can hear the theme tune still now!
I am two years younger than this video.
Never heard of kickstart
For the young pups like Joshvegas - junior kickstart was a kids version of kickstart with the added thrills and spills of the acrobatic devision of the St Johns Ambulance
That was awesome!
That was awesome!
Used to love watching kickstart as a kid but had to go to my gran/grandpas house to watch it, then I’d head out on my kx80 and attempt similar stupid stuff and fall off a lot, a peaky two stroke mx bike was not conducive to controlled trials moves.
I wonder what time Tony Bou would get on that course.

There's a 200 yard-ish section on my local loop that is flat but all lumpy and bumpy so takes a bit of balance, line picking and thrutching to pedal along it. I can't help but hum the Kickstart theme whenever I ride it.

Does the name Maggie Philbin mean anything to you?
I loved Kickstart and Junior Kickstart as a kid so we watched a bit of that last night.
There is some great stuff on the BBC Archive and we invariably end up watching the father of MTB
The junior one above with the st John's ambulance guys always reminds me of Father Ted when the nurses get stuck in the tunnel of goats.

Ha ha, Exactly the same here, but an RM50 (and later a CR80).
I'm sure I've seen footage of Rob Warner on Junior Kick Start.
Loved that - thanks!
The Japanese fella stuck in the water filled skip!!!
Loved kickstart, being part of an off-road mad biking family in AMCA “scrambles” in the 70s and 80s and early nineties.
Remember also the moto-cross version, was it called moto-sprint or similar.. ?

the young whipper snapper’s boasting that he doesn’t have Alzheimer’s now
Does the name Maggie Philbin mean anything to you?
Who?
Or maybe not
Absolutely loved that show.
