some weekend in may. started after work on friday. went down to the trails and soon mark and chris from paddock wood turned up. rode trails for a couple of hours. we had just changed a few things on the main line. a big step up on the second and a hip/transfer on the third so there were a lot of new things to ride.

then rudi turned up and mark and chris went home. rudi was watching me and tim ride and was bored. his friend nathan was supposed to come but he never showed up. then tom and nigel from tenterden came down and lots of media was taken and we rode until the light went. i crushed my thumb. then went to play on the trampoline and i had a look at my new shoes.

saturday morning got up early. changed the spark plugs in my car. packed some stuff and drove to gloucester. stopped to take this picture, urinate and eat lunch. my car was better by now. this is near stu's house i think.

then we carried on driving to hereford. i went to a wedding and tim went and found these trails and this ramp. then we went to the reception. i didn't get any pictures of that. then we drove back to reading to sleep for a bit.

next day we got up, went to crusties. i couldn't ride it well. i landed the second to flat everytime and tim bent his wheel so we went to buy a spoke key and then went to caversham park. met josh and rode a bit.becky got lots of pictures. and tim broke his brake.

then later we went to burham. tim learnt to ride the spine mini breakless and we practiced going high. i did the spine to volcano and volcano to spine transfers and it was all going well. so hot. 1000 miles last week. i <3 summmer.
