It's been a long time, I shouldn't left you!

I just realised I haven't posted anything on here since I got back from Cuba so it's time for another epic catch up:

Firstly Manhead has seen fit to start his own blog bigging up the love of his life: Purple Fiestas - http://purplefiestaclub.blogspot.com

I had a few days after Cuba to catch up on evil e-mails and work on events like UK Champs and Concrete Carnival before heading off on the Relentless Ride with Us Tour. I've got to say that although the trip was super tiring it was a lot of fun. 7 days on the road hitting up mostly concrete parks and a few indoor spots with a crew of around 30. I think at the peak of it we had 2 vans and 3 cars! The weather on the whole wasn't too bad and we had very little trouble trying to find places to camp. The coverage of this one will be out in the next few issue of Sidewalk.



We ended up at NASS which despite being wet was one of the best ones I've been too. Seems like loads more faces were there this year and the VIP area was a welcome refuge and party zone. Seeing Stu Graham fuck himself was a nasty point but he took it all in his stride. It also provided the opportunity to hi-jack one of the Relelentless Land Rovers to go and pick him up from hospital which allowed me and Jerome a little late night comedy off-roading. The Goliath Ramp took a beating and watching Scotty win that was joy. The Vans crew all did well - Manhead got second in Street with Grove in 3rd. Raemers was on form for the win. Chris Oliver was in no real state to defend his title as it was his Birthday weekend! I missed the girls comp due to driving duties but Lois got 3rd i think.



After that I went down to stay with Churchell for a couple of days. we had a bromantic night at TGI Fridays followed by the cinema. We went to see the Bruno film which is pretty ridiculously funny, like a 90 minute gay joke!

I had a few days to catch up on sleep/work before this weekends Young Guns comp which went down a storm. We had about 80 entrants from as far as Aberdeen. I was shocked at the standard and consistency of the top guys, there'll be an edit up on MPORA tmw. There's some snaps up on Sidewalk: http://sidewalkmag.com/news/young_guns_national_unsponsored_comp_blog


I think that about brings me up to date again!
