Odyssey's Way-better-than-Jim-C-Jim-C-pedals the
Trailmixes are now available in light 'n' pimpin'
magnesium flavour.
17.2oz for
sealed,
17 flat for
unsealed. So yeah, in short: Silence > Weight = Sealed. Silence < Weight = Unsealed. Simple! The other picture is obviously of the
Twisted PC pedals in
purple and
fluoro red,
2 of
4 ltd. edition colours that are about to drop. My
Twisteds are pretty old now, and still work fine, so yeah - a pretty good investment.
The Boneyard, a fun park up near
Chester (Oh-so relevant to
Southampton, but you never know...), has been given a bit of a face-lift - check it!

In other
skatepark news,
Newport was being given a facelift last time I was there to change the
pyramid hip setup into a more diverse
strizzeet section (For all the
fruitbooters to sit on, instead of the funbox, no doubt...). Although that was an immense downer to me as all I wanted to ride was the
bank->wall and aforementioned
pyramid hip setup, it's still all good 'cos it'll be better in the long run. At least that's what I kept telling myself.
£10 to get snaked a lot and ride a pair of pallets in some glass infested wasteland was probably not the best value for money ever, but there we are. Win some you lose some. Anyway, yeah, it's a bit more fun to ride than
Motion (In so much as it's more than just a set of minis with a comp-fest going on into the foam), so if you've got enough people in the car to make the
Severn Bridge Toll viable, head over into
Welshland and get involved. It's a fun park, and the lights are re-done so you can see where you've going without
night vision goggles.
Laaaaaaaaaastly,
Street Vs. Tweak 2008 is pencilled in for
7th June. I don't think I can really express how important it is for you to go if you're from
Southampton. I mean
I'm going there, and I live some distance away, so if you're a
10 minute roll away, you should probably man up and get down there. It was a good time last year, and with the combined might of
Street Dave and
Project5 (Who's
Lynched in Leicester jam ruled, so they know how to put on jams...), it's gonna be unstoppable*.
*Assuming it doesn't rain**.
**But even then it'd probably still be good.
