nowherefast

So its about 12 in the afternoon at work the day and i get a phone call. Low and behold it's upton, hexham bad boy who i aint seen in ages, we get chattin and he starts goin on about nowherefast and how he hadn't seen it for ages and he's just watched in on google. I hadn't thought about it in ages either so he gives me the link and i watch it when i get home. He was sayin how sick dave youngs section is and i full agree, the double slayer section is too fuckin good, also sinisi is the boyo. I doubt any bmxer wont have seen it but if you aint seen it, watch it. Sick ridin and sick sound track.
Here it is:

TRANNY!!!!!!!!

Weathers been fuckin balls for ages now so the day, since it wasnt rainin and only looked like it would, me pete and olsen missioned. Pete had a tank almost outta gas so we headed down to darlington way. The crew:
So we went down as Pete wasted to ride that long street transition which im sure most who ride will have seen somwhere at some point. Also we heard someone had built a knid of tomb stone add on bit, so we checked it out.Got down for about 2.30, we'd never been but found it pretty easy due to pete's google map print off, dork, to find there was a sort of small ass tomb stone concreated on a section. Pretty sweet though, not usually my cup o tea but was pretty sweet. shit got done and the rain held off thank fuck for that. Olsen droppin the reg canadian foot jams, table to deck mannys and noz bonk to table in. Pete slung em out to wallride then b's back in off the deck and some fakie to cab up the tranny, pulled? I sent some stock manouvers and its was a good sesh. smooth as, quiet as, street as as far as trannys go.
We stayed for ages but went to ride or at least tryn find some darlington street. Olsend been before so hit a few spots he new, rode a seemingly good bank to fence at sainsburys but turned out to be shit. So went to this spot near the swimming pool, class
double kink ledge with rail on, little bowl/pool thing pictures below. we setioned that for ages then mooched about to find basically nowt else. Olsen tooth to 180 b fly out, also back end bump off plant pot into bankk to massi 18 table out (pic), i jumped over a plant pot to fly out no hander and almost ate shit. Pete slung em n did some backwardes. at the same spot theres some sick long fast 180 curved walls n all.

Headed home after just as it started rainin with footage and smack

1 dry day in 2 weeks

Dry Day in Gateshead from Pete_G on Vimeo.

me and pete managed to get a days ridin for first time in ages a few days ago. rode gateshead and was rad, pete made this little edit of the day

Sick Of It All

due to not having the money to waste on batteries for me camera im slack on the posts atm, so here's a video you should watch, sick song and not boring to watch like most shit you see these days

greatest 'Quote'

was reminded of this quote the day, in my mind the sickest quote ever:




'It's Dog eat Cat in this world, and you won't find me in a tin of pedigree chum'




YES, oh yeah and a quid for the person who is rad enough to know where it's from!!

Figs love ACID

heaton green path oppy the harley garage at bottom of warwick st. saw it and had to get a sanp

Figs Crew, sickest kids in newcastle, i love that shit

whitley parky d, heaton bb q

reet, mesell carmine, tommy lee, daz e and pete the greaves (see photo above for crew) thought we have a gander at the new park in whitley bay, went through from town about 7-7.30, dont really remember but late on so it wouldn't be too busy. got there and it was still busier than a motherfucker, basically looked like this
was full of little bastards snakin you left right and centre and dropin the train round the park in a circle, plus the added scallys flocked round the perimeter sharin a can of carlsberg each and lookin like dicks. we went to ride a bit of street for an hour to see if it quietened down but no such luck. oh yeah, and dont tryn pegs down the side of a stainless steel slide coz you stop dead, flip over the bars and eat shit, trust me!
However, the actual park it's self was rad, some sickl lines and shit loads of stuff to carve and launch. not enough street bits for my likings but good bank to sort of jersey barrier that is a treat. well worth a trip over to session, my advise though is wait a few month and go week day in middle fo day or its a nightmare to tryn do anything on.
cutting our losses we headed back to heaton and decided to go to stu's rig which he lives in at the heaton park library carpark, to have some bait and some tins.

swung by PLC? crib and picked up to bbq which we stung on the bike rack to save time, went up summerfield for the sweet 10 CANS FOR A 5ER and some meat then went to stus. there we goined stu, gabby and jethro for some night time summer craic, text book, warm even in the dark, watched carmine and tommy lee wrestle, ate some good burgers and got crunk. jethro shot gunning tennents super, daz e gettin an ear full over the phone. good times.this is the general picture of what it was:
swung by the whops on the way home about 12.30 and had some free wine and chong in the back yard, after feelin smooked and pissed enough we went home, well most of us did!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

cherrs pete for drivin up places, summers here and shits blowin up already........

GAy PAris

spent over £100 on dinner here

thought we'd save a bit of cheddar by buyin a bottle of vino from the shop and drinkin it in the hotel ( at the champs elysees by the way) after dinner, only problem was we forgot we'd need a bottle opener, only thing we could find was a coat hanger to use, slammed it down and got a face and chest full of the good stuff, oh yeah

Day one, friday!
Friday i decided to go take a look at tom bright and placa toms new house in jesmond, text book student house ha, but since the two birds in his house have summit against carmine we didnt
stay long and went out ridin. weather was a bit murky but we decided to head out for a bit anyway rollin with, nezza, fortini, tom bright, placa, and myself hittin a few jesmond spots for the craic. turned out to be a canny little sesh and we discovered the bank to wall in sandyford had been concreted after sessionin a black flat rail and some red brick ledges. some shit that got done:

Nibs 'n' Jibs

Since i'v just finished second year of uni at northumbria at newcastle i haven't really gone past me building much in the last few months since i know they're doin building work so i tended to stear clean.
However a couple of days ago i went though all the building work and caught a glimps of these, situated between pandon foot bridge and the main northumbria student fag square where the library and skates are:6 or so full pipes sittin right at the sit of the site, easy to get into as the fence isn't even joined in places. I'v been told some skaters have been tearing it up but haven't been in to try it on a bike, they look rad as fuck though.
To be fair if you can ride them they look tighter than a fresh pair of tommy lees pants but still if you skate they'd be sick. There's also a little bank to the right of this one you could launch an go over the wall and grass onto the road and chuk a b in there (cookie, your line dude).
Last time we rode northumbria uni though the security were on us like a fly on shit so leave it till the night i recon.

Also the big green goin from shield field to heaton has this little set up, bench to tooth hang the bin or summit, who knows

I'm gonna trykeep me eyes open for little nibs n jibs like these and keep you posted


in a bit treacles

Shithawks hit Heaton

Yesterday myself, Carmine and Scotty T; heaton shithawks team, went ridin for a few hours late afternoon to pass some time. We thought we might as well take the one chipper out and footage the day ridin about heaton just messin on to see what we could get. Me n scott started with the back yard warm up sesh bright n early, then we called by 9th to pick up carmine, durin the day we visited the following spots:

----heaton hexagon
----heaton red bricked church stairs
----byker baths out frint
----byker baths behind
----byker metro, (some radge picked up carmines bike in front of us to twock but fortini sent him packin)
----bingo bank to wall subway
----back home hit up some rad spots


Shit got done and turned out to be a sick sesh, bikes got slung ans so did the bars, fotini bringin back the crank flip combos, alround rad day, therefore upon the return home we decide to drop the edit in an hour and get it onto me blog, so here's the video diary, the next day as we were too off it to get the video onto vimeo.

Oh yeah, and puls im sick to dead of all the bulll shit boring songs and arty edits. i wanted to get back to some old school all out random clip, nothin fancy thrash goodness. Therefore MUNICIPAL WASTE SOUND TRACK, TWO FULL SONGS get used and the footage is sinmply in order of the spots we rode. Fuck yeah!

Scotty T.attoo

Right, most of you will know of Scotty Taylor and the fact he's on fedral flow and a chong smokin shredder. Also happens to be me house mate, and also happens to have a couple of tattoo guns, OH SHIT!!!! ha.

Since his bmx career is know pretty well then i'l give you an overview of his tat career. Due to the many years of meltin his brain with various substances his legs are now an array of cartoon type tattoo's that look like they've been thought up by someone who contributed to making 'fear and loathing in las vegas' (which by the way is a film everyone should see, bill murrey or johnny depp version). His work can be seen on himself, myself, tommy the practice sheet lee, billy lad, robby cairns and more, here's a few of his pieces so far. So if you ever want a cheap prison tat and your in the heaton area, give us a knock.The first ever one done, Tommy Lee's leg, Shake it

Scotts leg, done by myself and him when he first got the guns

My leg, 'PLC?', done for me boy Pud

Billy Lad, T2S

My leg, triforce off zelda, dont ask

Me again, not finished Black Flag sign

There is a load more but couldn't find any photo's. Tommy Lee's arm needs to be seen like, he's got some pin up girl on his arm with a haggard foot and hand, a mexican hat, a bird from our bathroom shower curtain and some random colour practice around.
Anyway, there you have it, the Scotty T tattoo parlour photo album minus a few. Get in touch if your feelin like some ink, peace


oh yeah, and sorry for quality of some of the pics
