go ride your bike.

180 barspin down some steps.photos from pete.(soon to appear in dig?)
bike is nearly fixed, just need to find a shop/person with a big enough spanner to fit primo bb cups? stupid things. going to ride a lot this summer hopefully my shoulder allows it. i read scruffian bens thing about how people should make their Internet blogs interesting and stuff i guess he is right, i should make more effort on this site but then i don’t really claim to run this site as a blog or what ever its just like something i update when i can’t think of anything else to do, maybe thats the same thing? i don’t know.
i meant to say last update what a hero mark Norton is, the world needs more people like him. a lot of people haven’t met him but over the years i have seen a lot of him. first time i met him was down at Radley skatepark i think i had gone down on my own on the train like i did a lot in those days before i knew so many people who rode. i talked to him a bit there and stuff, he knew old man mike who i had met a few times down radly.any way i didn’t see mark again for ages, but then a while later he phoned and asked me if i wanted to go to radlands(rip). it was one of my first times going to a big park or whateva and i was stoked.me and mark and kurt and other random people went to various indoor parks for a couple of years probably much to the dismay of my gcse’s and a-levels.but it was worth it. anyway the point is he used to drive me to birmingham and hardly make me pay any petrol money and had the best times.
for like a whole winter it seemed like we went up almost every weekend, then i did my shoulder in the spring of last year. joe rich says something profound about not riding on the Etnies video i think, can’t remember what it was. but anyhow i haven’t ridden as much as i used to.not riding sucks, but it does open your eyes to other things in life, probably the reason i got into a good uni is because i wasn’t out riding or digging every hour of the day.so i guess thats a posative thing to come out of it.
i just felt like writing something, and if you have read this far i guess you’re a hero too.

is life passing you by?
