Rode my hometown today. I’ve avoided riding it for a couple of years because I was terrified I wouldn’t be able to do any of the big stuff anymore after my break in riding post Covid times. Did every line I could do before plus two new ones that I’ve always been scared to try in all my time riding, all very easily. Been riding that dopamine hit all day. It’s really nice to be given some solid evidence that I’m not just back to my usual level but progressing again. I love bikes.

riding bikes in leicester this eve with josh and chris. monster energy cans were 30p from morrisons. did a few new manouvres i couldnt do in the past. tasty.

that was quite refreshing. i'm no professional, and certainly not a better rider, I saw some real potential in that, theres a bit of genericness to some of the lines but i think youre just gonna get better. thanks for the good watch.

love that mercedes as always got something up their sleeves. Hate Brawns comments on the "spirit of the regs", honestly, the spirit of f1 is to find loopholes... if they change the rules to ban the merc because they didn't anticipate it, I'll be very upset..

still have it yes, just on my wall for now!

toward the end of 2021 I really fell out of love with riding. it felt repetitive and slightly pointless knowing i couldn't put in time to be as "good" as i want to be. Kind of coming to terms with that and remembering when I just went out for fun. also I have come to hate rim brakes. so I hung up my Crewkerz and built this: Bionic B1: found completely covered in petroleum. a lot of hours of white spirit, rags and face masks to get it slightly green again. hope pro2 evo SS on trialtech rims with jitsie tyres front and rear unknown forks, trialtech stem, jitsie Prototype carbon bars hope trialzone rear brake with a shimano up front. echo cranks, no tensioner as the chainstay is the perfect length for a stretched chain! Initial thoughts: brakes are surprisingly good. rear is 160mm for sidehop protection. It taps really nicely. the lower bb makes it very stable. my only complaint is its a bit on the heavier side. Video soon. moving to London soon for my new job so I'm excited to ride there. Cheers

thanks for the good stunts, sir.

the lab i used to develop my film has shut. can anyone recommend a decent film lab that does medium format?

thanks mark. there's not really any clips where i'm actually doing any moves that i'd consider big for me, and as Flipp knows i was quite anxious id not really got any of my "big" riding in there. battling rain/snow/ice every time i could if he has the little tyres that could, i have the big slicks that couldnt.

thanks dude

This was fun to be a part of making the best of shite lockdown situations.

for some reason, this for me. bersha always seems to be on it with music choices. that, or really liked this. im a bit weird with music though. probably not popular choices.

Charlie is a unit. For the clips with the bars forward, I’m hidden in the background somewhere. It’s all ridiculous. First try for quite a lot of it, and even when it isn’t it’s still a “make”. So consistent.

What the f**k? He made that look like it was a sloped wall...
