fashion and the broken frame

Some of you will find some nice improvments as I spent the day at the trails with the hound. Built a sweet fire and listened to stars on the i pod speaks. Yesterday Ryan and I worked on the roller landing on the hip. My puppy is passed out right now at my feet because we worked so hard today. This is the best time to be at the trails of the entire year. Break up with your girlfriends and get to work!!! Ryan got too piss drunk last night to even make it out today, although we had a blast.so drunk he couldn't even talk on the way home. I cleaned up and surfaced most of Beyonce's today to get it running for all of you tomorrow. Furthermore, draining out Bumps and Bitches and sweaping that too. And that wasn't even any of the improvments i was talking about. Come one. come all tomorrow!!!!!! Let's ride for a couple hours, then finish a hip landing, drainage, and onlys 6th landing.

included are some RIP pics from the old spot i found.

Lend A Hand!!!!!

Sorry for the lack of posts as of late. I think we've all been a bit busy.
I just wanted to get on here and let everyone know that Thursday and Sunday
seem to have a pretty incredible weather forecast right now so come to the trails.
The sixth Only isn't going to finish itself. The lip is near completion and the landing
is piled about 1/3 of the way there. I'll try to get some pictures of that tomorrow
when I go to the trails and get em posted. That set should be running in full effect for the
Halloween/Bday Jam at the end of the month and Brett and I decided we are going
to get Beyonce's running and if we have time finish the straight set after the step down.
So long story short what I'm sayin' here is get your ass to the trails and get to stackin'!

I'll try and post some pictures either tonight or tomorrow night of the super tight mini session
that we had on Sunday. Fashion...feel free to post whatever you got, I know you took way
more than I did!

Quick rundown of the weekend.
1. Brett lost his mind (see roof jump below).
2. Rob is the sexiest guy in the 717 (again...see pictures below).
3. Ryan is the Wildcard and can and will do whatever whenever where ever.
4. I'm too old for this shit (and knowing that is more proof I'm the Brains!).
5. Old German is the shit...if you can find it. Only in Gtown apparently.
6. Lets Get Mystical is the sickest movie I've seen in forever...get it.
7. Go to about 4 minutes in on the video below for more evidence of #1.
8. Baby dirt mounds are fun in small doses...but cant hold a candle to the monsters.
9. My dad cooks the sickest hot dogs EVER (even BMX Brett the former vagitarian agrees).
10. I'm tired of typing this and I'm late as hell for work.

Enjoy the noise below!

Check back soon

Just wanted to let everyone know that I am going to be posting all kinds of shit from this past weekend's adventure as soon as I get time. I have a sick ass video of Brett almost dying that I'll probably upload to Vimeo along with pictures from this years Gtown Jam. I'll get back on here soon with more info and pictures real soon! The only reason I'm even posting this now is bc I know Brett and Rob will be asking me tonight...surprised no one has asked me yet haha.


Here is me and Ryan's favorite new beer! $15.80 after tax for a case of pounders!

Two Jams

Gtown Jam is this weekend. I reposted the flyer for that below. Definitely come out.
We'll be there in full force.

Finally whipped up this super fast shitty little flyer for the Halloween Jam. The date
is October 24th. If you have any questions dont hesitate to leave a comment or shoot
me an email (the addy is on the flyer). Nothing crazy here...just a chance for us all to enjoy
the woods one last time before winter hits. After party should be wild with the keg of legit
ass beer and all. It'll probably be the last party at our old apartment...moving up in the
world to a new pad before the year ends.

SHIT

Well I don't usually mix business with pleasure; for that matter girls with trails, or all of the emotional garbage I hear about from everyone with trails  but I may stray from that tonight.

The trails have become a type of sanctuary for many of us. A place where our problems disappear with each shovel full of clay, dirt, or leaves. I don't dig because I like the finished product and I like to ride what I have created, I dig because I don't know..... it's what I have done for a while now, and somehow it helps. We encounter girl problems because of the trails and our bikes, however, at the same time finding the only solution to life's journey in the trails. It's like a catch 22, or an alcoholic. ( I drink because i'm depressed and i'm depressed because I drink.)

My guess is if you are visiting a trail website it is because you want to see pictures of trails or videos, updates, something like that. Have you ever heard the old saying, "The church is not the building, but the people?" The trails are not the jumps but the people who labor constantly to craft a pile of dirt to perfection. We are the creators, We are the trails. So in a way maybe it is life's situations that make trail builders, maybe it is the problems we go through that create the need to throw dirt. Maybe the trails that you enjoy are somehow a product of our lives.

So I guess that's how this ties in with trails, because we are the builders, the life of the trails. 

In continuation, I thought I would get one more post off before my old girlfriend takes her computer back and I have nothing to post on here with anymore. Again, a perfect example of trails taking their tole. This relationship is probably down the drain because I refuse to "grow up" have "real goals" and "stability" in my life. I just can't change who I am! 

"I didn't mean to be mean. Like if you became a professional biker and were in the x-games and graduated college and lived outside of Lancaster County and called me and asked me out, Maybe i'd give you another shot."  That is word for word of the message I just got at 10:13 pm as I type this right now. Guess I'll never get another shot, but I'll probably be at the trails slaying dirt tomorrow, starting this whole process over again. Next time you hit the 6th lip in onlys, think about why it was created and why I helped pile a 7 foot dirt mound.

Best of luck to you all. 

Fall

Seriously starting to realize that fall is kicking in. Its about 60 degrees today and
on my way to work I noticed the leaves changing. This is probably the best time
of year in general but when it comes to trails this is about as good as it gets. Not
looking forward to winter but I'm excited for the next two months of trails awesomeness!
Thats all for now...lip building and landing stacking tonight so come join us unless you
dont like trails or you dont like jumping new jumps.
