Finally finished sixth form at last, a good feeling i guess probably won’t see quite a lot of people again but university should be good. Hopefully going to Cardiff so Newport and things will be just down the road, if i don’t fail all my exams first. Yesterday was so damn hot, got a pair of shoes with 40% discount cheer oli if you read this. Sorry for no riding pictures or riding news, i thought my shoulder might be getting better so i rode and now it feels shitty again. Actually pissing me off so much. The physio does seem to be helping but it all takes far too long.

Me and mark agreed to go to romford skatepark on saturday, so got up well ealry to go, marc picked me up and ACDC live were playin in the car. My shoulder felt okish, but not amazing. So we start the drive up to rom the legendry concrete bowls and stuff. I guess we had been driving for about 20 minutes when marc’s revs on his car goes sky high… Then we slow down. Turn out Marks automatic gearbox had destroyed itself. Marc’s car has done 260,000+ miles so its quite well bedded in shall we say. We ended up driving in first gear at about 20 mph back to marks house. So we didn’t get to rom in the end.

I have my driving test a week tuesday, fingers crossed for that. Marc now has some shady old renault.

Maybe going to Romford with mark tomorrow, feeling a bit wasted but maybe a good update from there. I got called a French exchange student today, wicked.

Started riding a bit again at long last (7 weeks?) and went down the jumps in blewbury. Some new people have started coming down and one of them is a landscape gardner, and he deceided the place needed some work so he brought a digger down for last 2 days. Super safe guy called mario i think, did a lot of stuff like make roll in bigger. Lots of work still to do but its all good.Such a nice day too today, suns out. I managed to be the only one not to be ‘id’ed going into a club last night which was lucky as i am only one without id.

The digger making the roll in bigger. I’ll put some pictures of finished stuff soon, camera is being broken.

Me bad lookback.

Dec and ollie came down. The tabletop is quite fun, someone dug out so much earth. Have no idea who but i am pretty happy about it.

These are the state of the trails at the moment, nice and dry though. Actually managed to ride a bit for first time in 6 weeks wot wot.

Burnt stuff.
