New year, new stuff.

Well, don't know about you, but I celebrated the new year by buying some car insurance, then going and buying a 2 litre turbo diesel in racing green from a now defunct UK car manufacturer. Good times.

Anyways, couple of photo related things popped up on the internets over the past few days - Luke Towey got a Rapid Response feature up on Dig which has a bunch of interesting photos shot by Mr. Fred Murray, and that gives me an excuse to post up the video of him again:



Secondly, Jeff Z (nope, couldn't be bothered remembering how many 'i's there were in his name, in a very similar way to my approach to writing Jim Sealkinky's real name) has an autophoto up on Defgrip. Go and look at it, nooow!

Seeing as it's neither raining nor snowing, I'm going to make the most of a dry spell to try and work off some of the cake I've eaten recently. Ta ta!

Usually, the standard "WEED WEED WEED 4:20 BLAZE BLAZE BLAZE" kinda web-vids are pretty tedious, and seem to have to feature at least 15seconds of footage of people just smoking, but fortunately, this video doesn't. I went to the Bristol P5 street jam yesterday (Which, since you're asking, was awesome), and like after most jams, web-videos just bore me. They never really get that 'feel' of riding after seeing plenty of nuts stuff in the flesh, but this video broke through that and is really good. Good tune, awesome riding, good filming. Winners.



I've actually got a set of bolts heading across the Atlantic from this guy (I hate the imperial bolts on my Profile stem. They're getting dangerously tweaked out already. 6mm bolts on everything rule.), so it's good to hear a bit more about the man himself. Click here for an interview with the dude who runs BlueSix.

This is the Brighton Ain't Ready mix section, that has so many different people in it that I'm reasonably sure the only people who aren't in this video are you and me. No joke.



Plenty of deeecent stuff in here, straight from Dig.



Josh Betley has a frighteningly unpleasant looking bike. No joke.

That's all for now. They tweaked the prescription for my lenses in my glasses, and I have a beast of a headache coming on...

Seriously.

Watch this video, right now.



First saw Luke at one of the old Backyards, rode in a completely different way to everyone else. Ridiculously consistent, and incredibly tech - yet able to do big 'n' burly moves too. I've been waiting to see someone pegs to over the Shell rail in London for a long time, and I'm glad it's finally happened!
