Quote of the week..

Warren hooked me this quote up a couple of weeks back, I still get a little buzz every time i read it..

Far better is it to dare mighty things, to win glorious battles even though checkered by failure than to rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy much, nor suffer much because they live in the grey twilight that knows neither victory nor defeat!

I have a lot of time for that.

So i'm getting requests to update the blog now, man, i'm thinking about going Global with this bad boy!

The weekend was pretty hectic, considering i awoke to 2-3 inches of Sheffield snow on Saturday morning i didn't expect much to be going off, but a short trip to Sunny Mansfield-ietta and all was not lost, the skies were that perfect winter shade of blue, aeroplanes casting vapour trails in the sky, the wind was strong, yet graceful, and allowed you a break to nail everything on the track, it was a perfect day.

The Goldcoast crew were in the area and as per usual the banter was top form, laughs a plenty, full lap efforts, pump races, 10 meter sprint sessions and plenty of track skill time. We spent near enough 5 hours riding and i was proper spent up!

Evening wise not a lot happened i checked out Transit 10 which was okay and Warren, Mason and I sat back chillaxed and watched The Great outdoors.

Peep it, its big. A showcase of the best bits of the 2007 AMA outdoor MX season. A real treat.

Sunday I woke up when i woke up which was real nice, had a good breakfast and ran some errands, 51JR was in need of some TLC so i did some housework, man, my life is off the chain!

I headed up to Bolehills, bike and shovel in tow to do some more work, ended up with Paul and Pete doing another 4 hour session with some flow time in between.. By that point i was feeling it!

Been off the gym so far this week, as i don't feel my body is ready yet, Thursday session should be on, and i'm going big 120kg up in the place on the rack.. Only 3 more weeks left of this before France and i want to hit 130 or beyond.

Saturday session at the Bolehills, 12pm onwards, we're having the O2 presentation and a photo shoot with the local press.. Come along. I'm hoping closer come too, all this BMX drama, for just 30p!

Over and Out!
