Here's a pic of the Sunday Pro Complete with all the others behind it. Bright enough?

In other not so serious news: :p

G-Dogg is back! After his savage crash on the rail at saffy his smashed elbow was repaired using space age meterials and technology. He is now back riding, not 100% in control of the bionic arm yet but certainly getting there.

Here is a pic of him "bustin" a mizzive 1 footed flatty. If you were ever in wondering how to perfrom the perfect 1 foot flatty take notes here. The angle of the shot makes it look likes he is just laying on the floor but trust me he is a atleast 8ft high and transfering from the bowl to the grass bank ;)

(Notice how serious his face is even though he is infact just laying on the floor. G-Dogg is a serious BMX'er)

In even less serious news......

Whilst preparing my dinner for when I arrive home like all good women should (thats right I said that, know you role ladies), my gilfriend caught a Pea disease from the petit pois (small peas, for those who skipped french lessons at school) They attacked her hands in some sort of rebellion against being put into boiling water. Don't worry I came to the rescue, saved her hands and ate them to make sure it wouldn't happen again. This is what her hands looked like during the attack.

Watch out for peas, especially the french kind they WILL fight back.

 ....enough mythical tales....I now must get back to work.

Time for another bike check I think. This time Alsy "Badman" Childs. Alsy is pretty tall (Nuff tall if you wanna be "street" about it) so he rides a 21.25 frame to give his mazzive legs some room so that he can bust bar spins all day long.

Pegs: No idea but he needs new ones.

Finally had a few sunny days in Harlow, about time too. Me and Alsy spent the day at the local park enjoying the sunshine. Felt good to properly jump the hip in the bowl, its been too long since it was warm enough to ride in a T-shirt.

Splendid day..........

Me nose manny.

Alsy up rail double peg to ice.

Me smith to ice

Me jumping my favourite hip.

Jordy just got a new frame and forks so I thought it would be best for him to have the first bikecheck on the GrooveBMX blog.

If you know Jordy you'll know he's not exactly poor. So when he realised the other day that no money had been spent on his bike for a few months he came down to splash some cash.

He was riding a hawk V2 but I think we all knew (jord included) that it is a nice frame the Hawk V2 was not the right frame for him. Jord is a spur of the moment kind of guy and the Hawk was there so he just got it. This time Jord wanted something that was right for him. Although he did nearly go for the mazzive United 40 in 21.25 even though he is 5'10" haha.

In the end he went for the new Wethepeople Worriors frame and the also new Wethepeople Scorpio forks to match. Both frame and forks use the new invest cast dropout's which is supposed to be stronger and looks better I think. Jord rode it for the first time properly last night and he seemed to be getting on with it just fine.

 check it out:
