Hey guys, props to the Ramada hotel for having a computer to use for the guests. Today was the 4 cross, it was super fun, unfortunatly my good friend Sandy Close who was gunna be rippin shit up this race wont be racing due to a broken collar bone:mad: it was a freak accident that happend while he was practicing on the 4 cross, sad news but he wil be back rippin in a short while. Not as many people out this year for the 4 cross it seemed but it was still hella fun. Kyle Guay was rippin it up for NSMB doing very well in Pro! Big shout out to Jack Johnson rippin it up on his new Santacruz HT and representing Steed Cycles, he was rippin with mad style but didnt come out with the win. I had a good qualifier going on then forgot that i was racing and layed doen a Xup table and then ate it shortly in the big berm (another one bites the dust) Thank got for dainese, i just shook it off and finished my run which was some obscene time hahah but its all good cuse for Jr men everyone qualifies. I mess up on the gate in round won but went on to win the "Phat daddys rap race" i won meyself a rad chicken wrap that tasted so good. Tomrow we will be rippin the DH course all day. I was chillin with Cheese and Inshane look out for soem sick pics when hes home.

Later boys.

Haha that what I thought too
read like 3 posts up :o
Neil rides a big hit.

no jay did it on his full suspension so did neil on his new big hit he just got, hard tails were a thought but we heard the landing had some big ruts from 4x4's climbing up or something so big change of thought. full suspension on that is way smarter but I bet before the summer ends some one will try it if it's not already been done buy some local ripper.

I looked like an idiot getting bucked over the bars on one of the jumps, roasted out my knee. Atleast I got to see out of towners jason muscroft and neil meir hit gillard gap..
Neil hit a rut and got fucked.. lost his shoe in the rubarb!!! later recovered! He stomped it but the rut got to him!
