Special Attraction 2012

Crieff Highland Gathering Ltd are delighted to announce that, by popular demand, the Bolddog Lings Motocross Display Team will be returning to Crieff as this year’s special attraction.  The Bolddog Lings wowed the crowds two years ago with their aerial acrobatics and are sure to be bring a spectacular end to this year’s highland gathering.


The show features the UK’s top ranked freestyle motocross riders, incorporating the latest heart stopping tricks as usually only seen on TV.  The Bolddog Lings Freestyle Team provide a unique, non-stop show, using Britain’s best motocross and extreme sports participants, introducing the articulated mobile freestyle ramp.   As the most advanced piece of equipment in the industry, the Bolddog Lings ramp provides a platform to allow the team to truly express themselves. The show features a wide selection of freestyle motocross tricks such as the “superman seat grab”, “Indian air”, “heel-clicker”, “rock solid”, “double-nac”, “switch blade”, “kiss of death”, “lazy boy” and many more. Many of these moves will result in the rider exiting their seat, taking their hands off the handlebars and rotating their body around the bike!

Bolddog Lings Team Director and professional stunt performer, Andy Godbold describes the show as, “It’s more than just freestyle. It’s a non-stop show that will entertain everyone from off–road enthusiasts to the general public. It’s a must see part of any festival and is continually growing in popularity as the awareness of freestyle motocross increases.”

Crieff Highland Gathering Chairman, David Gillies, said; “We are delighted to be able to welcome the Bolddog Lings back to Crieff.  For many people, particularly those with families, the special attraction is one of the highlights of Crieff Highland Gathering, and they don’t come much more spectacular than the Bolddog Lings.  We really have to thank our main sponsors, O2; enlisting their support at an early stage this year has meant that we have found it much easier to find a top class special attraction.”
