so I haven’t been able to take any photo’s off my camera in a while. Therefore, I shall update you with some random pictures that I particuarly liked out of the many on there. Here goes….

Segment visited our woods for the day, then we visited Chertsey with them

This line got built a while back, Run DMC. Now being ridden in, weather permitting… Aidan and Pipe did some lumberjacking…

Jib rode some stuff, hopped some heights, and pulled some faces, the coolest dude ever, full time

Pipe wrote us a story among other things…

We’ve had lot’s of fires down the woods, producing pretty photo’s. The woods are fun

Pipe et Poll

Close up, flames always look amazing

Stu of Loxley posed on my favourite tree

My favourite tree up close, those vines are so rad…

Why the woods are awesome

Stu and alice climbed the bridge up high to avoid any trolls

So by now you’ve heard all the stories, therefore I won’t bother typing them out. here are a bunch of my favourite snap’s from the course. I haven’t updated recenty due to a combination of moving house and lack of internet, and the fact that I’ve been having so much fun riding, partying and smiling. So many more photo’s to update with too, should get back on it once our WiFi is dialled in. Enjoy these self-proclaimed treats.

Brian Yeagle, my riding highlight of a wild weekend, absolutely nuts on a bike

Chris Doyle, standard but never tiresome

Clint, along with yeagle in the best people to watch ride

Taj, look at that background view…

Yeagle spinning, soooooo good

Spot the Lima. not many good photo’s of him as we were too busy cheering, heckling and waving our banner

Kye, put on a good spread

More Kye, floating a good ‘un

Another Forte, Leo, straight out of the ambulance, rode the course faster, higher and nicer than most people

More Clint Reynolds, rad dude

Hennon is an effin mental dude. Hit it straight and hold ooonnnnnnnnn

Hope you liked this little selection. Plenty more to come from other fun times once we get out net sorted. Look out for Ed’s Cotty woods updates to come too, guna be bloody awesome. enjoy every dry day because there ain’t many to the pound.

SO finally went riding and partying with crew. Good times, the Shovelload house in Oxford is a bit of a treat a few shades lighter now due to a good old game of antiquing.

It’s important to work out these days to stay at the top of the Oxford BMX game. Aiden shows Pipe how to do it

Aiden wasn’t that stoked on these, but I reckon they are alright

Pipe gets some air

Pipey turndown

Pipe turndown of goodness

It’s weird riding at the Oxford spine mini now because everything else has been taken away so it is just literally the spine mini and a muddy, empty field. Ho knows what is going on with getting something proper built. Maybe my kids will get to enjoy it one day? Maybe. Street riding in Oxford is fun anyway, and it is always digging weather at the moment to…

Went to Grove with people after going out in Oxford.

Chaz is a good boy

He can do an alright table to when he needs to.

Pipe does some pretty good stepthru footjam thinger. For anyone unlucky enough to live in Didcot, or around it. I will have a couple of photos in an exhibition in the Didcot art center for you to enjoy. For more details see here.

Also if anyone fancies themselves is an aspiring model and doesn’t ave a face like the back of a bus
let me know…

Yeah it really is true I am not dead or given up on this site, life has just been a bit crazy and I have not even properly ridden my bike in over a month…

So since the last update loads of stuff has happened, mostly photo related. I won an international competition that Microsoft run so got to fly out to the states and won some money. That was pretty damn good. You can see stuff about that on my photography blog

Me outside no. 10 downing street. Chilling

I have been and worked at a news agency that a fellow BMXer (Brad from RadomBMX) also works at, and I have been up to The Times in London to do work experience there for a bit. Pictures are worth a thousand words and all that so here are some pictures from the last month or so…

Max Mosley trial and ensuing press brawl. Good fun that was

Got to go to Buckingham Palace to take some pictures of where the Queen has dinner

Been doing some fashion stuff, wanna keep going with that

Was at the Bigchill last weekend, good times

Bill Baily was there and was pretty funny

Mighty Boosh

Sunset at Big Chill

Fire at the Big Chill

So all is good in the hood. I want to actually do some riding, and take some BMX photos… I have a car again now so just need to pass the test in a couple of weeks and it will be sweet.

Thats about all I can be bothered to write for now. Out
