I am made up, I have just done my first spine!!

OK, so its only 2 foot off the floor on the local park, but its been goading me for 2 years!!

I've ridden over it before, but have always had to toe dab it.

Nice and sunny in Leicester today, so we rode to the pub, Me on the Haro 540, Daughter on Dingo's old GT, wife on a wife bike (still has a coaster though!), have 6 pints, ride home, Daughter suggests we go to the park, cheeky bike swap to the new school Alone, no kids there at all, I think `i'm havin' this, just rode up and did it.. bit slow first time, scuffed the Radshop decal under the down tube, 2nd time better, 3rd time distincly average. but I did it.

After riding Corby on Friday with Lenny and Jol, finishing the Haro 540 yesterday and doing 12 miles on it since, now this....its been a cracking weekend BMX wise.

My spine riding wasn't pretty, or big, but i've done it. and to quote PK Clean ant the last BR session.

" I Fookin' love BMX"

Now, time for a coupla cans before songs of praise!!!

Keep the passion for our BMX thing, it pays off, especially after lager!!

Well done,

My first attempt at the tiny one at my local skatepark ended up with a huge gash on my shin. It was pitch black and i attacked it and slipped off the pedal!

You fellas need cameraman numero uno Dordy Dave on the trigger - he makes it look like you're 10 foot up when you're 6 inches off the deck - even when you stack it, he makes it look effortless

Here's last weekend's attempts to 180 the jump-box at the boardroom

Hootski landing the knife-edge

And for the icing on the cake, how the fook Brett stayed on after 180ing the jump-box to this I have no idea

If we can make this much of a mess on a jump-box, I think spines are for another day for us lot
