Christmas week

Christmas week was pretty good for us nor-folk. Despite the cold temperatures, we managed to ride trails nearly every day! We had a bit of a jam at our place one day with the Bury boys and Tricker visiting. It got a bit hairy in the high winds but it's all good fun.
New Years day we headed to Snape for what has now become a bit of a Hardcore Hobbies crew tradition. We always have fun there and this time was no different, highlights of the day were Williams pulling out a one foot x-up, Rebecca and Stifflers race around the dirt bowl and Rebecca making it through the first 3 of the main line. Everyone was stoked for her and she was doing them so smooth too! So much so that she was presented the achievement of the day medal! There is another similar medal floating about for crash of the day but that one is not so saught after....Scoob keeps trying to get rid of it but keeps on winning it back much to his annoyance.
Last monday a few of us headed over to Bury to hange out with the HArdcore Hobbies crew and watch the new S&M Bikes video. It's a really cool vid with a fair bit of trails in too, check it out :o)
This past weekend me and Scoob hit the shovels and made some big improvements down the trails, making the 3rd set a foot or so taller and the back line way more flowy and fun! We have so many plans for tweak here and there, we are gradually getting through them but it is so dry at the moment t's difficult to pack in a lip. Carpet seems to do the trick though. Some of the dirt was frozen solid today too which didn't help. Hopefully we'll get some more done during the week.
Started back at boxing this week and we discovered the guys who run it are FMX riders. They've done loads of displays and built there own foampits and stuff, pretty cool. Oh yeah and I hit Scoob on the nose a couple of times...accidently of course!
