Standard Premiere
Standard premiere last night, im feeling like ive been hit by a truck which normally means it was a pretty good night. Standard DVD was pretty good, had a totally different feel to it then any other videos out there, took it back to old school type videos. I guess your view would be different depending on your music taste, was pretty heavy which in my book isn't a bad thing. Martyn's section was good as expected, a lot of stuff from America and nice to see some Plymouth/Saltash stuff as well.

Save Ferris
It's been a while since I've put anything on here, so you're gonna get a horrific mishmash of stuff old and new I guess.
I've just got a new 400d and a couple of vivtar 285hvs on their way so I'll be sticking up loads of crappy shots for a while, deffo can't promise owt as polished as G-raf but I'll see what I can pull out of the bag. All the gear and definately no idea.
oh, and if anyone's interested, I setup a UK Trails group here: http://www.flickr.com/groups/uk_trails/pool/ last year and summers on it's way so hopefully a fair bit more on there apart from diggin shots.
first a couple of minibike shot since it's a shitty time of year and I REALLY want some tight-jeaned prick complaining about it not being bmx in the book...
here's Greg getting all moto 1 foot off the ground.
G, Matt and Deebo
Some massive cock action. come back white car, we miss you.
and what would this site be without the obligatory Jimmy-Love shot
anyhow. more at: http://www.flickr.com/photos/johnrae/sets/72157603461819288/ etc.

Big update today, not bad for winter. Went up to Corby last Thursday, heres a few pics. Taking photos in parks is fucking boring and I have little enthusiasm for it. To quote Jonny, 'skateparks are to trails riders what ping pong is to tennis players'. Luckily Lee took the camera for a bit so credit for some of these goes to him! Don't worry there's some trails pics below.
This hip is about the best thing at Corby, Dave
A photo of Dave is about the only still image that could induce epilepsy, so many colours
Classic Dave table
It's me! haha
Caught lee by surprise with this one so it was a bit wonky, luckily through the magic of photoshop you'd never even know..
Jonny pretending the hip is made of dirt
Leeeeeee
Leeeeeeee
Luke footjams on the pointy bit of the hip
tongue for style points
It's the Tim show!
Winter training ground nosey 3
1 Handed
two turndown 3's, one is a better turndown but it had got pretty dark, one is nice and light but not quite as good, so you get both
and a whip
Jim, 3 over a very tiny jump
and half a 3, so a 1.5 I guess..
taaaable
Rob and Jimmy match
I think this is the one where a split second later Rob went down pretty hard and got his finger stuck in the chainring.

Skin
Went to Mount Hawke skate park last night. We were there for about 20mins when Kev (who had never been to Mount Hawke before) decided to go full throttle at the big wall ride peddling from the other side of the park, which you have to go over the flatbanks to get to.
Considering Kev had never been to Mount Hawke before we probably should of told him that on the other side of the flatbanks was a long chunky set of stairs that was kinda hidden.
Kev managed to do a real nice stair ride on his face going about 20mph and sliding across the park. Sadly we didn't get any footage of it but to show you the kinda thing i mean check out this video below of some crazy ass street rider taking it:
In memory of Kevs skin! ha

Some completely un-bmx related photos just to keep everyone happy. Roo takes photos as well so doesn't get many of himself. He can also ride round corners very quickly.
And some minibike action
minibike jumps are getting bigger

Happy New Year. Being back at work is a whole new level of shit, if anyone wants to pay me to do something fun then let me know. Managed to ride quite a bit over Christmas, here's a few photos.
It's me! Just to prove I do ride. Rob pressed the button.
Jim, dark 3
Table 270, he did some better ones but I didn't get a photo
Rob, more no hands
Table from the angle of un-cheat, would look inverted from the other side
shit photo of a good tiregrab twist
Si back on dirt, likely for the last time. Bloody skateparks
I don't normally put up photos of stuff that wasn't pulled, this looks pretty though
The colours on this were shit so I did a quick B&W job on this one, and did it badly. Tom tabling out of the wallride on a slippery day.
Digging has now re-commenced at Wisley so if you're planning to ride this year get your arse down soon!
