Sorry I haven’t updated for a while, Have been real busy!! Right well whats new, we had the first of the moto trials shows at santa pod last month which went horribly wrong. Had a massive crash off the top of the rig resulting in one broken bike which wasnt cool! The push bike shows are now dialed! got a few different moves in the show this year some pretty rad stuff going on!! Was hoping to of had the backflip by now but just havnt had time to practice in the foam pit. Road a few enduros at the start of the year to keep fit, quite happy with my results just wish i had more time to ride some more. Theres just not enough time to fit everything in!! am going to try and update the blog a bit more often now so look out for new posts! thats about it for now, just working hard at the mo, pretty boring stuff!

Take it easy.

Right where do i start…….. These last few weeks have been absolutely flat out! We got back on the 5th from the Isle of mann TT, which was absolutely awesome if not very hard work! we had to drive through the night on wed 28th may to get the overnight boat to get there for 7 in the morning to start shows! unfortunately due to a few complications we had to take the old rig which meant alot of hard work lifting it in and out of the van. The shows made it well worth it tho! In the day times we were all over the island at different events putting on shows and having a wicked time, then it was back to the promenade in the evening to put on the stunt show there which started at 7.30 and finished at midnight. What an awesome atmosphere, 15,000 drunks shouting there heads off as you can imagine it was a right laugh! We only got to see one days racing which was a bit of a disappointment but with grandstand seats sat next to Carl Foggorty it wasn’t so bad!! all in all the week was awesome and we enjoyed every second of it, Big thanks to straight liners for organising it and getting us out there!! Unfortunately we didn’t have the camera man with us so we don’t have any pics. But hopefully there will a vid going up on the site fairly soon!

Last weekend we had Bronte Vintage Gathering, I really enjoy doing this show as the weather is usually good and its a real friendly show. The show is actually a vintage and steam fair so you might think its quite a strange show to want such an extreme and loud show as ares, but they seem to love it! The weather did not disappoint this year as i managed to get my self sun burnt!! The weather just makes the show so much better as every body is so much happier! We did 2 shows on the Saturday and 3 shows on the Sunday due to a duck trying to end its life by lodging its self under the cars that the land-rovers were driving over, so we had to put on a quick one whilst they saved the ducks life!! don’t hear that very often! Now we have a couple of weeks off to try and get the rig up together ready for the Isle of Mann TT which I’m well excited about! anyways I’ll keep you updated.

Laters! Chris

Just got back from Speed, the show with no limits! It was a wicked show and the crowd was pretty big. We were indoors with a big hall pretty much to our selves so we could make as much noise as we wanted and we didn’t have to worry about getting wet, which is always good! Being as it was the first time they’ve run this show i thought it was real good and has alot of potential. Back up to north yorkshire again next weekend for Bronte Vintage Gathering.

Another very successful weekend at Santa Pod. This weekend was Big Bang which was a VW camper & bus show and being as I’m a bit of a veedub nut myself it was a wicked show to be at! At first we weren’t sure whether i was going to be able to ride the show as i have torn a ligament and damaged cartilage but i strapped the knee up and carried on through! (what a hero hahaha!) The Saturday was roasting hot and i even managed to get a bit of sun burn, the crowd was huge and were all really up for a laugh which made for a wicked show. The Sunday wasn’t as good weather but still warm and although everybody looked as if they had the biggest hangovers ever they were all still really up for it. all in all it was a wicked weekend and me and the team cant wait to get back there for bug jam which is also a veedub show and is supposed to be a mini Glastonbury so were well up for it! peace out for now!
