Excuse my incopetence, but Ross who?

Just trying to tag riders on the post here

Hey man,

thanks for putting the link up on that website. I love the fact you think the quality isn't that great. It was filmed on a go-pro, but I guess movie maker took the quality right out of it.

It is in HD if you watch it on the vimeo website. Ill have to pay for the upgrade for the year soon to allow HD embedding.

I was also right, I did enjoy it! Not sure about it being in Glasgow though as everywhere was dry??

I think we managed to land on one of the 10 days a year that the city is dry and the sun comes out. With an annual 3% chance...we got lucky.

RIP Wee echo...

Gutted I didn't have my bike up there this weekend. Saw quite a few spots just walking from my hotel to Kelvingrove skatepark.

You guys should do a trials version of Living in the city and invite some street riders to stay for a long weekend (A)

Always enjoy your vids (Y)

Funny you should say that. Ben was wearing his BSD T-shirt that day and I was singing "livin for the sittaaaaae" for most if the afternoon.

Anyone's welcome to come and ride dude, anytime. There's been talk of Clean 002 ride happening here ;) eh Mark?

Ian Johnstone was also wanting to hold a Phoenix street comp.

It definitely has potential for a big ride. I just don't have the contacts to make something like that happen up here.

Oh, and why didn't you have your bike?

To be fair dude, if Ian's looking to try and do something then that's a pretty good 'contact' for it straight off the bat in all honesty! Ian's pretty motivated to do stuff (and I'm not, hence me having done f**k all Section wise since Bristol :P) and I'm sure that - to slightly paraphrase Captain Planet - when your powers combine something pretty cool could happen. When I was driving out of Glasgow yesterday (and getting lost as f**k trying to find a petrol station that was a work of pure fiction by my satnav) there were flatbanks f**king everywhere. Clocked a few spots I'd ridden with you guys before too.

In video news though, enjoyed it (Y) It was cool to see some new spots in there too, helped keep things fresh.

I only got my train tickets on Thursday evening so it was far too late to sort bike reservations out. I've never been on the train that far so didn't want to risk been stuck somewhere when I've barely got any money at the moment.

It kinda sucked but at the same time it was cool to ride with brakes for once and it saved me from crashing into people all day :wink:
