It makes me cringe to see that 10 days have past since the last posting. Well, to take your mind off of that fact, here is a little treat my brother sent over to me. If you have already seen it, who cares, watching it again isn't to tough . . .

This is the generic image seach photo I picked when I put entered the word "explosion". . . So far, my favorite thing about the 4th, is the lack of cars in the street. Now that's something to celebrate !

Houston park petition
If you have been riding for any bit of time, this subject is nothing new. Grindline has built yet another masterpiece, this time at the city's edge in Houston. But its the same old story. No bikes allowed. Some of the riders down there have put together an online petition to see if they can get the bike rule over turned. If you search around on Google, you will see some of the completed images of this place. Its amazing. And hopefully one day, we'll all be able to ride it. If you are interested, you can sign the petition here.

Danny Hickerson . . . lost !
Danny Hickerson . . . Lost in Europe . . . Never to return home again . . . well not actually, but quite possibly. Danny has been in Europe for some time now and having the time of his life. I've gotten just one or 2 emails from him saying that he's been loving it. There was a small little video on Woozy popped up of him a few weeks ago, but that's all I've really seen. Mystery man. Can't blame him though, I'd be out enjoying the new new surroundings I was in too. Traveling can make you forget about everything at times, its like being a little kid again.

Cyclops stem update
Let's see. Many of you have been asking about the new Cyclops stems and what the status of them are. Well, the truth is that they are due for one final change and then a bit more testing. This has taken a bit longer than we had thought, but better to get it all right before putting it out there. More news on these to come.

Carson heat
Mr Sandy Carson has finally taken a vacation and is up in the Northwest for a few weeks. Which means the web update duties have been returned to me. And already I'm slackin'. I guess today is the end of that.
Austin has been hot hot hot the past month. I think its the hottest June on record. that has left many of us retreating indoors during the hottest part of the afternoon. And down at Barton Springs in the early evening. The water in the springs stays 68 degrees all year round. Which is a perfect remedy for ever so possible heat stoke. Summer in Austin seems to take on a much different effect that the winters here. As if Austin isn't laid back enough, it gets even more laaaaaaaaaaid back in the summer. Not too many visitors come to visit during this time. But its good in an entire different way.

T1 Fakie comp videos!
So the weekend of fakies has come and gone.
Here are 2 little vids for you to check out.
The first one is in HIGH
DEF of the days shenanigans. My camera ran out of juice before
the actual fakie high air comp started, soooooo, there are not straight fakies
on this video file.
However, this next one is all fakie
footy by Dave Parrick's nibble digi cam. Mat Hoffman
would be proud...
Everything wasn't documented entirely, we just filmed some and put these together
to give you an idea what you missed. My apologies go out to the dude that
pulled the ice fakie on the slab o vert without the aid of pegs. Once again,
my camera ran out of recording space on the attempt that you pulled it ! Oh
well, anyhow, good times in the back yard and thanks to Dave Parrick
for helping me film the majority of the footage that is on here. Cheers !
