Right here

- Wearing headphones whilst riding

- Not wearing a helmet

- Crashing into a lorry

- A broken Cervelo (broken fork steerer, actually)

- "Dude, it was gnarly".

I wanna see the lorry. I bet it's in pieces. I bet they had to use a dustpan and brush to clear it up.
Swim. Bike. Run. Yeah. That's what I used to do.

Bike 2-A

    I suppose you have to be a bit of a dangerously idiotic looper to be a world DH mountianbiking champion, no?

    "I was like, oh my god."

    She said that just to piss me off after my rant about people who insist on saying like and oh my god 10 times every sentence.

    Q: How long are the skids that this bike can do?
    A: Dear Mad Dog. The skids odometer shows 128,992 metres, but i think it might have gone round the clock. I once did a skid that went for two weeks.

    Dude!


    She was pretty pillock-ish to get hit, but I'm glad she's okay.

    Oh and I'm sorry this was on Cake Stop ages ago. 8)

    ps THE END.
