Life is GOOD

The rain here is a bitch. It's a cold, hard bitch. I drove through it to Beaverton today and got lost looking for my new spot. Justin found it and found out that it's lumpy. Oh well...

A few more wrong turns and I found myself in the parking garage of Herman & Meier. This used to be one of Justin's old spots and it's still pretty good. The lights are white and the assorted characters rolling through were really entertaining. We had couples with puppies cheering us on and then a couple of crackheads looking to sell or buy some weed from us. It was pretty funny, actually.

Justin has some tricks, it's true. He's a flashy lad and it's cool to see the combos.

I landed my power trio: Steamroller, Foot Switch Thing and Hang-5's. My H-5's are really starting to feel right, it's so damn fun. I got a couple of funky chickens to roll and I worked on front yards too. I'm obsessed with scuffing right now. I'm on a mission to scuff. Where the hell is Paul? I need some scuffing inspiration.

We rode about two hours and went back to Justin's place. Megan is just about ready to pop! Regardless of not being able to breath she made us dinner, many, many thanks M! We checked out some mind blowing video with all the heavies and then I headed back through the rain to Portland.

I stopped by my office to pick up some photos and the smooth floor called out to me like a siren song. I got out the bike and worked on some stuff. I'm really just playing with different positions now. I really want to learn, so bad. A combo of sorts came to me tonight. I'm not going to play it up but I can't wait to unleash it once I get it dialed in. It's no big deal really but I like the way it feels. Killer.

Front yards are hard. Funky Chickens are hard. Rolling Boomerangs are impossible. Karl Cruisers are going to happen. Whiplashes are going to happen. If it's a trick, I want to learn it. Now.

That's not too much to ask, is it?
