4x in 09?
I hit my old local nat bmx track yesterday with JW who raced bmx for a number of years and it showed, the guys quick and has some sweet lines that i picked up. it was a lot of fun and i may have to race some 4x if i get in to racing again (but just for fun).

Off to session the bomber track
off to have a session at the bomber track and maybe get some photos done, The winds blowing hard here on exmoor but the suns out and it should be fun riding with JW for the first time.
update in the next few days, as for the last few weeks.. Had a killer cold and then once that had passed i went to my woods at cove, But i was not loving it, Slow going on the wet soil and called it a day early, Few days later went to the bomber track on the azonic, First ride and had a good hour and found some fun stuff and loved riding the track again.

SW EXTREME BIKE (build part 1)
With the 4x, freeride/shore park just under an hour away, i felt like i should make it one of my main spots for 09, so a SWE bike was needed.. the build has started.
Big props to hotlines-uk the importer/distro and my oneal sponsor for sorting me out with some of the parts, The frames bang on the buck for what i need, low slung, low weight yet can take a more freeride fork and the big hits that a pure 4x rig can not.

tracy on Trek!
Tracy Moseley Signs With New Trek World Cup Team
1.12.2008
December 1, 2008: Granada, Spain. Today the speculation on the 6 rider line up for the new Trek sponsored World Cup program reaches a conclusion with the announcement that 29 year old Tracy Moseley from near Malvern in the UK has signed up to ride a Session 88 from January 1, 2009. Tracy is one of the greatest downhillers in the sport's history and has a place in a very exclusive club of only 5 downhill riders, male or female, to have won 10 or more World Cup races in their career. Tracy has won her 10 World Cup races between 2002 and 2008, with two of those victories taking place in the past season at the Fort William and Canberra rounds. Tracy joins World #5 Justin Leov (NZL), and South African Andrew Neethling, as well as XC team mates Lukas and Mathias Flueckiger (SUI), and fellow countryman (and near neighbor), Liam Killeen. On the announcement, Tracy said today: "I am really excited to have this great opportunity to ride on a new exciting bike from 2009, and with a great team around me to give me all the support I'll need to further improve. I'm also really happy to have 2 great guys to ride with as I believe that is really important for my ongoing development as a racer. These three things combined, the new bike, the team support and my team mates, will make a big difference to me." Team Director Martin Whiteley says: "It's a thrill for us to be able to announce Tracy in our line up. We've been excited about the idea of having 3 DH riders and even more so to be back in the game of women's DH racing. With the growing interest brought on by web coverage like Freecaster.tv in 2009, it's clear that women's World Cup racing will continue to get more competitive and exciting. Tracy showed everyone what she can do on the physically demanding and pedalling courses like Fort William and Canberra this past season, and looking at 2009's venues, Tracy will be well positioned for a great season with us on her new Trek Session 88 DH." Trek Mountain Bike Brand Manager Michael Browne says: "Trek is extremely happy to have Tracy Moseley join the ranks of the DH roster. Her world-class performances and professional manner are a perfect match to the existing roster, one which Trek is excited to expand beyond a men's-only team. Trek is confident that Moseley will fulfill her greatest potential aboard the Session 88 DH in the 2009 season." Co-sponsors for the team are coming together rapidly and 23 Degrees will be in a position to announce those in the next couple of weeks.

more shore closed..
Haldons freeride area has been shut down, its not clear why, other than the people that built a lot of the area seem to be in a battle with the FC for much of the time and a lack of memebers to the builders club.. no news if it will open any time soon..
Chicksand closed! The north shore area has been closed for now because of insurance problems, it should be open again soon...
Oke shore has had some of its stunts removed, After the trees have been felled the shore should be put back by the okefreeride crew.
All three Oke runs are on my GOPRO head cam and now up http://elbry.pinkbike.com/channel/first/

out with the old, in with the new shore
SWE has its shore line growing each and every week, above the new skinny line, bellow the huck line.. good times..
(from back in the day, me riding on the SANDLAND & CO tour at Oke shore)
Oake shore looks like it will be no more in just 3/4 weeks, It seems the spot had had a lot of riders come from far and wide, But sadly the locals have not been so down to keep up with the day to day repairs and because of this plus felling work the shore will soon all go and its unclear if it will come back unless the locals fight for it..bad times..

kbc starburst
By far the best lid i have ever had and thats because its the best lid on the market, The all new shell design has a different fit platform to any of the previous lids made by KBC before, the fits amazing and the qualitys off the latch, you also get for the great price of £200 a helmet sack and a helmet pit bag along with an extra peak.
