Tomorrow we are planning to go for a trip to some trails. If you are interested meet at the concrete skatepark in Maidstone about 12.

I had a little mishap last night. As I was pumping a roller I pulled up a lot and the bars hit me on the chin. My jaws slammed closed and my whole mouth went numb and it felt like I had no teeth. Pretty horrible. I had bits of broken teeth in my mouth and a gash on my chin. I had to shave so I could stick the cut back together which wasn’t pleasent. The cut seems to be holding together well now but I have a chipped tooth and it hurts to bite stuff. So remember to keep your head away from your bars when you are pumping.

Are you a middle lane moron?

I have monday off! I want to go riding somewhere. If you can get Monday off too let me know and we can have fun on bikes!

Hard to believe:

This is probably the deepest lip ever. I have changed it 4 times now (keep on making it longer).

I think the weather is looking better for this week. Time to get the trails running properly again and then go on some trips.

There is a new skatepark in Swalecliffe.

This looks very similar to the way Tim broke his arm – just put it out onto the transition as he landed. The worry for Mark Webb is that it might keep happening now. Hope he heals up soon.

Practice your mental arithmetic.

Weekend was fun. I went on a bike ride last night and nearly got struck by lightening. Lots of storms about.

Liam Eltham came fifth in the pro Dirt comp thingy and Simon Hall was 25th. I heard the jumps were trailsy so you have to ride a lot of trails to get through, but I don’t know what trails Simon Hall rides.

We went to joeys woods today. I took some pictures, which are up in the gallery. You can see them by clicking on the words Joey’s July 2007.

The Sunday before last there was a mini tour de France. I took some pictures: one | two

This weekend, on Saturday I had lunch at the trails and then on Sunday we had a big bonfire of Seb’s roof the other day, once it was taken off the house. I was being a bit stupid, playing on burning haystacks.I took some pictures of the people at work:

We recorded this clip at work using skype. It might be interesting to listen to or it might be very boring. Have a listen and let me know:
