marys gunna get it
Monday 12th Mar 2007 - Cothill

taluka! so my name is yak of the vale and when i go to pub or club toilets, i like to piss all over the urinal detergent that fills the bowl. why? because some things cant be justified.
so the past few days have been some of the best in a long long while. you've waited a week for this and in my eyes its worth it.
DISCLAIMER: the photos you're about to see are in no way an open invite to the trails featured in this display of writing and photography. someone on the prettyshady book asked why people put photos of their trails up on the internet. i choose to, cos i hope it inspires and gives people ideas and is pleasing to the eye and the head. its a harmless exercise if those that view it show it some respect. so that viewer is you. lets begin with a journey that creates dispair and almighty joy:

so we spent three glorious days down cothill in order to get back in touch. last year was a disappointing year where we properly fucked up and we dont want it to happen again so try to spend any spare moment down there getting stuff ridden in or tweaked so it can be the best it can. a yak table. thank god i didnt whack my shoulder. that shit hurts.

aidans a fucking sickhead and no one can trust him in any way shape or form. we both now own MP3 players, not that snazzy iPod shizzle but real MP3 players. the other night we rode home and went by the shop to purchase some dried tobacco leaves in a pouch. i was in and out within 4 minutes or so.when i came out i found aidan asleep on his bike and had to wake him up. god knows how he didnt fall over. here aidan doesnt care and does whack his shoulder.grizzzz!

proven fact - i havent done a turndown since newport back in june. theres pictorial evidence of that very day in the archives. thats 9 months ago. in that time my brother and his wife made a baby from snot and eggs. if i wasnt so stupid i'd have these down by now. you win some you lose some. i probably drew, but in itself, that isnt a fact.

schooled!! aidan banging out a treat. these were amazing to watch and it made me wanna do them as well. today was a pretty momentous day and the gay boy wonder managed to land his first three on dirt over his trick jump that you cant usually clear the gap on, let alone spin. like i said, he cant be trusted.

suprise suprise. so we got that most recent issue of Dig Magazine with the trails article in it. it just blew me away. ive never read anything that is so accurate and poignant when it comes to trails. i hate reading articles about building trails in Ride cos they make it sound like its some elitest spiritual journey of enlightenment. the Dig article made it out to be about big kids on small bikes which to me, pretty much is what it is. if you havent seen it, its issue 57 and costs ?2.95 which that article alone is worth. the rest of the magazine is pretty dialled too.

big picture! this is the laziest no foot can ive ever seen i think. chances are he was about to fall asleep again and thats how it turned out this way, but he managed to stay awake just long enough to go over the next set. its been so dry recently you can see bits of tops of landings tryna peel off, none of which we can fix until the drought ends. one order for rain. tescos probably sell it these days.

russsssia! this took me a fair few go's to get the picture. eventually good things come to those who cant time pictures. not long after i took this aidan tried to stick a three and held onto the bike too long and as he landed popped his shoulder. so that was that.

wooop. how long can you go? according to this, roughly 2ft. i aint worried, its only the first set. and what a set it is. i got another set in my line kind of running considering all the stuff before it was peeling off and i hadnt actually properly packed most of it. i crashed more in the past 3 days testing some of my stuff than i have in months and months. when i wake up in the morning i cant get out of bed without aidan tempting me out with the promise of a sleepy hug and some tea. my knee will hurt tomorrow. i am sure of this.

i really like this picture. all the other pictures have been of stuff at the tops of our lines cos thats as far as we've been able to get. this is a little further down aidos line.then out came the MP3 players like true champions as the troops returned to a land far away from the gentle delights of days in the woods and into a land of alchohol abuse and dead pigeons. what do i spake of? i speak of pipe.
yes. so on a saturday night, no different from any other saturday we travelled into oxford to see a band play. we ended up not seeing the band and instead sat downstairs with perhaps a 40yr old woman called julie who aidans not at all secretly in love with. shes nice that julie is. the pipe made a phone call to our fair electronic device and a plan was hatched. so after finding a very drunk stu sucks and having to make his rollies for him, we heard the call of the zodiac. many heroes were in attendance, an air of anticipation hanuted the lunging legs of the tight jeaned skinny kids.
last time i went there a super pretty girl had stole my hat. in return i demanded the number of her electronic device. so she was there. along with her friend. her friend was called mary. and my god was mary gunna fucking get it. the boy who cant be trusted tounge banged the shit out of her til she couldnt last any longer and had to go home. the filthy bastard. meanwhile i tounge banged her super cute friend until she had to go home as well. we felt successful so talked to a mancunian nutbar called john abernethy whos business card i have here. he was so crazy i didnt know what to do. the end.
i tend to only go on websites that take amazing photos these days, of which there are quite a few like RANDOMBMX. its just had a makeover so works better than before and has just had some awesome pictures posted up by brad and kung. theres one picture brads taken at motion thats just incredible. you'll know what i mean. fuck i best end this. wayyyy too much writing. peace and love. xx
