Alreeet!
Man what a weekend.
Went to Brighton Backyard jam and it was one of the best events ever.
Gary Young took the win (well deserved - the guy was grazy), leo forte was IN-SANE!, Morgan wade was bike flipping all over the place and Dave Osato with his over icepick on the highest vert wall was sick!
Seth kimbrough took the highest hop contest win (good man)
and Dave Osato obviously got best trick.
Ben Hennon (even tho hes the biggest fallace in the world) got 3rd place overall cos he managed a flipwhip transfer from quarter to sub box!
The competition rocked.
I managed to meet a couple of my favourite people too.
Had my picture taken with Seth kimbrough and Ruben Alcantara. Linz got a picture of Dave Osato close up and a drunken one of Owain clegg (ill explain later)
Sat night was the party, we mingled and met loads of cool guys and gals.
by then we had managed to make friends with Owain Clegg and Alistair Whitton (two pro riders) due to the fact we got locked out of our room and theirs was just..there.
Had a bit of a Partay at the bar of the hotel with all the riders and staff.
had a good crack on with the owner of seventies (he was so so drunk and i was very very cheeky)
I bumped into Chris Souter there too, he was being his usual self, he was soaking wet by the end of the night doing lunges and the cancan in the bar.
van homan refused to share his pizza with me - even tho i offered him 50p
After the party we made our way back up to the room with the media guy and the big boss of Ride BMX, they came in our room for a while and chilled out along with Ali and Owain and a few others.
By then they were all very drunk and owain broke our bed (when the picture of him was taken) and ate our skips. Cheeky sod.
end of the weekend we had all had a good time and forgot about Linz's car being broken into and all our stuff taken.
It was an awesome weekend and i cant wait til the next one.
Ill post some pics when i can.
