Sunny England, What?!?!

Yea, finally made it to the UK!

So, we made it back to England yesterday in time for an afternoon dirt jump sesh and then some great burgers for dinner. My birthday was pretty low key, but it was a nice day regardless. It's been super nice here the past couple of days. I've been loving it. I wasn't too psyched on potentially having many rainy days in a row, so needing to apply sunscreen to go out riding has been great!!

Jumping the Cub Moped (even with a little style thrown in), hilarious!

Rhys won the table comp

But Bernie's weren't damn bad

Today we headed out to Milford to a dirt jump area out there. The jumps there are pretty nice. The guys that I'm staying with were bitching and moaning that they weren't very nice, but it seems like they'd be the best jumps around if they were in Boulder! It was hilarious. My friend Bernard's brother, Boris, has this little moped "Cub" and Bernard had the bright idea to give it a go on a step up jump at the end of the line. It actually worked out pretty well! About 13 little kids (10-12 year olds maybe) showed up just as we were getting ready to leave. They were all pretty darn impressed with the moped jumping!

This bike has been great!! Race on it, DJ, XC, even some DHing! Love it!!!

All the little kiddies showed up to ride here after school! Cool!!
