The days are getting longer, slightly less cold which can mean only one thing. Grove sessions! Been having some sweet rides after digging down the trails. Every once in a while there is a dope sunset over the skate park, hopefully I captured it. Look through the gallery to see all the pictures.

I will try and update this more often, just busy busy at the moment!

Decided my computer was thirsty the other night, so fed it some water. Unfortunately, she was allergic to water and died. Managed to save the hard drive luckily so the last three years worth of photography, music, videos and more were saved, phewwww. Here’s some fun I’ve had lately.

Went to Btown and had a sweet weekend - disco’ing and riding and hanging out and seeing rad people

Jib has been riding around on bicycles, even doing footjams

Little Joe got himself a dialled 2CV for his first car, took me cruising, really suits him and gets him even more chicks the little stud

Painted Grove baby blue

Got kooked with wine and sherry bombs (the next big thing) at 157, go on Tannnerrrrrrrr

Footlong roll up, Subway inspired, so rock ‘n’ roll

Got us a gingerbread man painting kit, really fun, here’s my Lightsinthewoods one in progress…

Not just for gingerbread people, Jen got wrecked then edible-painted too…sure she’ll love this shot!

Butler did some box spins

Then some eagles

Then a tuck

Turner shreds

Here are some pictures of pipe riding the old BMX down grove skatepark. A 360 on the box

Invert over the hip. Pipe got these so dialed since I was last here!

Style on the hip

Turndown.

360 on the box again, super nosed dived. Also check the rim reflection.

Pipe does really good no foot cans, grove training box has taught him well. This photo didn’t quite work.

Another turndown at height. Pipe has progressed a shed load since I was last down grove which is rad to see!

I only have one hand to use at the moment so I’m not gonna type much…Operation went okay, in a sling now. Will do an update about Amsterdam trip in next week or so.

Sucks that Empire of dirt isn’t happening this year, should be even more intense for next year though! Damn the English weather. Dean updated and

Craig Tull did some riding photo updates. Good to see Craig back on the net at last!

Took the old camera down grove skatepark for one last session before the operation, last ride in six long months!. Turned out to be one of the best sessions for both riding and photos I’ve had in ages. Pretty stoked! Pipe, Couch, Daz, Rev, Stu sucks, Lee etc. It definitely felt like a summer evening, just the right temperature. Daz has a new tatoo of some men shooting at some bees. If you know daz I guess you will get that.

Couch has recently ditched 8 little wheels to 2 big wheels. He’s only been riding for about a month and can already do x-ups like these. Good lad.

I set the old camera gear up and took a load of photos of pipe which I was really happy with. I will put those up in a few days time, haven’t finished sorting through them yet also might be used in an advert for pipe products.

I tired pipe out making him do lots of stunts so he took charge of the camera for a bit and took some photos. Lee tyre grab.

Have been trying these for a while, finally got them going right. Me trying to do un-turndown.

Lee doing an x-up, not met Lee before but seemed like a nice enough chap. I think he added me to myspace. Building the network.

Another angle of an un-turndown by yours truely.

Lima wasn’t about cause he is helping build the empire of dirt track. Apparently it is pretty much amazing, see pretty shady for some photos of it. Not sure if I am going to be able to go for two reasons, first I might not feel like it with my arm all screwed up, and second not sure if I can get a lift anymore. Soooo shall see what happens there.

Couch man also can do tyre grab real good, I don’t think I have ever even tried this trick. Not sure why not. Something to learn I guess. Couch you should be stoked on this!

I have to be up at 6am tomorrow for surgery in Reading, only have to stay there during the day should be home by tea time if all goes well. Will have my right arm strapped to my chest for 3 weeks, then in a loose sling for another 3 weeks. So should hopefully be able to start taking photos again before too long so book your session now, in the mean time got some website to make for people and a few other projects. Pipe photos up soon - Signing out
