THE BARN.................RIP
« on: July 19, 2006, 04:02 PM »


it took 6 months to build it, it see some awesome riding in it, met some cool people in it, and only took a couple of hours to destroy it





i am so friggin upset at the minute,i didnt even take any photos of the ramp or  people riding it, there was even a set of nos grey tuffs in there, but feck it, if we can find somewhere else we can rebuild bigger and better this time ;)

Ouch

Hopefully it was fully insured along with all the dozens of NOS parts, frames and complete bikes.

On the same note, I have seen a few field fires and a marina mooring burnt, all within the last four days. It's hot and tinder dry every where.

What a bummer (the fact that the barn burnt down, not Pete)  :(

What are we going to do now when its raining ?
I see you stand like greyhounds in the slips,
 Straining upon the start. The game's afoot:
 Follow your spirit, and upon this charge
 Cry 'God for Harry, England, and Saint George!'

When Pete told me this morning I could'nt believe it I felt real bad, all the good times we had there and all the the things I learnt from you guys and especially Jerry teaching me how to air which I never thought I could.
To think all that energy and atmospere have just vanished is so sad. :'(
Lets hope we can get something else going in time for winter.
Thanks to Pete.Jerry& Mark for letting me be part of a great thing.

Here are a few of my favorite Barn Pics in no particular order.

 























Good Bye old friend  :'(
