Epic bike skills
Scott Edgeworth is rediculously good on a bike. Beats the shit outta barspin to tailwhip to no hander to footjam to whatever any day.

Helmet Cam
Billy over at Dirt mag very kindly leant me a pretty rad helmet cam. This was taken a while ago but its taken me a while to figure out how to convert the file formats since I suck balls at computering. Anyway now I’ve sussed it expect more! Me following Seb going mainline into Jam, you’re knackered by the time you get to the bottom…

Teddington Lock Plans
Apparently the teddington lock lot are up to something with the council related, from the sounds of things they’re trying to get some money put into the place. One of the guys sent me this which I think is supposed to help explain things.
Seems they’ve been playing with models as well…
So if you plan on riding down there it might be time to get involved and get down there with a shovel!
Fanta Claus Is Comin…
Just a little Christmassy vid to get people in the seasonal spirit and all that. Definitely one to watch at work/school with the volume turned right up. One of the funniest things I’ve ever seen…

Cheers to dave for pointing me in the direction of this gem…
Out of the rain
We were very lucky to be able to get a session in down at the tunnel this weekend, with the full on shitness of the weather it was pretty much the only place we would have been able to get a ride in. Damn that place is hard too ride well. Massive thanks to the lads down there!
Iphone awesomeness
Some random photos from the iphone for your viewing pleasure.
Biiiike for Saaaaallleeee!!!
Built this up using an old frame and some stuff I had lying around, as well as a few brand bits. The intention was to use it to ride some street over winter and do some grindy stuff. However it turns out that doing that soet of thing bores the shit out of me so I’ve decided to sell her. Spec:
21″ Fit series 2 frame and forks, sprayed matte black (not very well I have to admit)
Beringer lt bars, cut down a bit
Redneck lt stem
Primo brake and lever
Profile cranks, LHD, one black, one chrome,
25t Tree ring
Sun rim on wtp front hub
Primo Balance rim on Sputnic rear hub
Odyssey intac post,
Not sure on the seat just yet, I kinda wanna keep the S&M one, we have history.
I think that’s the lot. Added it up with Dave the other day and it came to a total of around £1300 brand new, so someone will be getting a bargain at £350. Any more info email me at gbmx666@hotmail.com.
Autumn
Good sessions still going on down the trails even though it’s getting a little chilly. The leaves are going a real rad colour, I like this time of year…
Trails Roadtrip 08
The Dirt trails roadtrip has become something of a annual tradition now. I’ve just come back from this years, which was awesome, and coincidentally the article from last years has just come out in the mag. It ended up being super late for a lot of reasons, but I think it turned out pretty sweet, so check that out. Here are the photos that didn’t end up in the article. As usual I’ve saved my fave two which should be on my portfolio site shortly…
