I really could do with some sleep.
Thing is, I don't feel tired.
Been riding the first time since getting back from Les Gets. Listened to System of a Down at high volumes all the way there in the cruiser.
Gunned it at the table top and launched a good 'un- I left my lock out ON. A good landing ensured all was good.
Saw that the local riders had reworked an unusable double into a good looking step down. Wicked I thought. Donned my full face and thought that the landing looked a lil narrow and soft.
Still gunned it and had an "okay" launch, looked for my landing and there wasn't much of one. A small slope of soft earth met my tyres, my suspension front and rear compressed, looked for the exit, and bang I was off......floating through the air knowing that I was going to.....bang.....hit the floor.
Good ol' full face. I sit up and look at my bike- a beautiful metallic navy blue and I can see green diamonds all over it. Hmmmm.
I get up and all is good (apart from odd green diamonds every now and again) and construct the landing and exit more user friendly.
And guess what- I bottle the next runs. FECK! Now I'm stoked up ready for the next round.
I MUST DO IT, I MUST DO IT, I AM THE KING NOT GRAVITY.

Nothing beats a good Nytol. I try and do stuff I fall off on instantly then think about rebuilding stuff, otherwise I bottle it.
