Success at Sheffield, next shoot WM Ski Sunday 14th Sept

Another successful shoot at Sheffield, a big thanks to Andy, Jo, Si, all the staff and riders! Despite weather featuring rain, wind and more rain, there was a good turnout of local talent putting tricks down for the camera resulting in some awesome footage. If you missed the Sheffield shoot I'll be filming next Saturday at the 10ft High comp as well.

Next shoot is Sunday 14th September at WM Ski, 4-8pm, then Boxend Sunday 21st 4-8pm. Success at Sheffield, next shoot WM Ski Sunday 14th Sept.

As an added bonus I've included a few observations on what is possibly the most boring 130 miles you could ever drive, but are unfortunately essential to get from Cheltenham to Sheffield.

-Petrol goes a long way if you maintain a consistent speed of no more than 60mph
-Maintaining a consistent speed of 60mph is almost impossible because it's so boring
-'Erewash' is probably the best-named river ever
-All X3/5 drivers are nobs, as are 90% of BMW drivers in general
-If you consume 2 chocolate bars,a bag of crisps and a can of Relentless in the space of 10 minutes, expect to feel a bit sick
-Driving at night is shit before 10pm, wonderful after
-Speed-camera enforced motorway speed limits of 40mph are infuriating
-If you have to go on really boring drives, take a friend to stop you going mad and writing silly lists like this
