Art. I Forget How Big I'am and Garden animals

It's been a while since I put any 'art' on here so I will put some up over the next few days and weeks. Whoop!
I've often been drawing and creating animals and creatures. It's pretty fun taking fave animals and blending them. This is just a plain Elephant, no strangeness to him.
The Giraffes are a bit strange with their markings.
The garden animals are made from spare bits of wood but they do have a bit of strageness to them.

Big Ed's leaked photo

That's just how I roll. I haven't seen or heard from the enigma that is Big Ed and then out of the blue he work's his magic. Lovin' yer!

Hell Of A Weener

Last year I made the Hell-o-Weener flapjack. This year I was asked to create another Halloween treat.
This is what happens with some spare time and my idle hands.
Chocolate, sponge and marshmallow make the, 'Hell of a Weener' cake.

Red Bull Minidrome

Victoria Baths in Manchester is a fantastic venue. Architecture and heritage blend together to make a brilliant viewing gallery for any event that will fit inside the walls of the empty pool. The Red Bull Minidrome was a perfect size for the pool. It looks so awkward, almost impossible to ride which I guess is why the last few riders in the finals all seemed to be sponsored by Red Bull and all seemed well used to riding the tight track.

Mike Watt

Mike Watt is the reason I've been flyin' the flannel for the last 20 years.
Firehose. Minutemen.......Our band could be your life.
He lives in Pedro. He works the thud staff. He jams econo.

Rapha Super Cross

The Rapha Super Cross Series was just looking like a great idea. Promoted and hyped in a way that was corporate enough for the Rapha brand yet, left enough to still appeal to riders instead of fashionistas.
Windermere was a beautiful setting, especially in the glorious sun. The crowds had turned out, the 400 free Rouleur cowbells rang out, the Duvel beer and Frites were at hand. It did have an extra special feel to the event. The course was pretty technical in parts, thick, sticky mud, roots, a few climbs and hurdles enough to give the am's and pro's a few problems. 153 riders took to the start of the Senior race before the Elite Race.
It was great seeing the pros attack the course at a speed most riders could only dream of. Nick Craig and Paul Oldham both suffered early mechanicals yet still killed it on the course.
Fantastic day riding, Fantastic spectating.

Hard Times

I've used these never been worn Vans 438's as my spare change money boxes. They were full so needed to be weighed in at the supermarket. Right shoe came in at £26.66. Left shoe came in at £29.22.
