Back to Riding!
Finally... I have been fighting some crazy hybrid flu for 2 weeks! I got back on my bike sunday and am starting to feel pretty normal again. Dennis McCoy was in town over the weekend. It was cool to have someone to ride with for a little bit. Good session.

It is starting to get nice out lately. Had a 57 degree day yesterday so I went and got my motorcycle and rode it for a bit. That felt really good!

Just built up a new bike this last week while I was still sick. Didn't change too much, just a few little parts. Ended up dropping over a pound! I am down to 24.3 lbs. now. I am stoked though. I was wanting a bike a little lighter in certain spots and now I have it. Going to ride this afternoon and see how it feels.

Guess thats about it for now. Wish for summer!
See ya'

Winter Time!
Well it's cold outside, no hold on it's warm out! This is an example of PA weather. It's 15 out today and 50 tomorrow! Needless to say I have gotten sick due to this. I rarely get sick, and never enough to keep me off my bike. I did this time and its been nearly a week now and I'm not good yet! So since I have been sitting around the house for 6 days straight with nothing to do I posted some pics on my profile. I built up a new bike as well and put the pics of that up. Leave comments, give me something to read! See ya'

Long time!
Wow sorry for the giant gap in writing something in here! I have been pretty busy and just haven't been keeping on top of it. Between the holidays and riding I have kept pretty busy. Figured I would post something today. Took a pretty good slam on saturday riding vert and have managed to get the flu over the weekend! Needless to say I am not feeling the greatest today. I did build up a new bike, I'll post some new pics once I shoot some. Other than that, just been riding a lot trying to learn new stuff. I did post some older video on vital videos section. Used an older camera, but the riding is decent. Let me know what you think. I think thats all I have for now.

Times a'changing
So I have been riding for 2 days straight now. Feeling pretty good, not back fully but pretty good considering I have been off my bike for over a month. It's a little weird not riding for so long after riding every day during the season. It's an adjustment that comes with the territory, and so I have been adjusting quite a bit lately.

Then...

I have had a pretty good schedule going at where I work to allow for alot of riding time. So I had yesterday off as usual and got up this am to get ready for my "monday". My boss calls me just as I am making breakfast and says "I got too many guys and I need to cut back, I'm going to have to let you go, but it was really great knowing you and there are plenty of jobs out there. You will be just fine". LOL! What!? Are you kidding me? Ok well I can't do a thing about it so I go to camp and ride. Have a good session with everyone work on some new stuff, pretty good day.

Now that I am home and officially unemployed...

So the whole jist of what I am trying to get at is working sucks!, ok no thats not it. Trying to make it as a true professional in this game they call bmx is difficult...very difficult. You must be willing to pretty much give up everything and then give up some more, and maybe never get a thing in return. So don't expect anything. ride because you truly enjoy it, and don't forget to live a bit in the process.

Season Changes
Well I am finally starting to ride a little bit. It has been about a month and I am starting to feel well enough to ride. This is the second time this year I have broken ribs and they were back to back! Went and put some new parts on the bike, make it a bit different and fresh for the winter time sessions. Guess thats about it really for now. See ya'
