New partner announcement. Osprey Packs.

Osprey Packs; our newest partner.

I am very pleased to announce that world renowned manufacturer Osprey Packs (Osprey Europe Ltd) have kindly offered to support us with product placement in our ongoing endeavours.

My sincerest thank to Dominik Wolf, Osprey's European Marketing Coordinator, for his tremendous enthusiasm and generous offer of assistance.

I have already received an Osprey Atmos 25, to use in next years Yak Attack mountain bike race; and a  a very nice t-shirt that, if I do say so myself, looks rather fetching on me! :) I might even post a picture of me wearing it for all you lovely ladies out there to admire! Hahaha :D

I'm looking forward to working with Osprey in any way that I can.

Thanks Dom; you're The Bomb!

Battered, Bruised, and Smiling!

Tamworth Snowdome.

I don't about you folks out there but I've had a particularly fun weekend!

It all started on Friday for me with a trip to one of my favourite Summer haunts, Tamworth Snowdome. It's a great big indoor fridge that allows me to ride my snowboard during the Summer months when it would otherwise be gathering dust in the spare room. It's very quiet during the Summer which suits me just fine; most people go there in the Winter months to prepare for their "real" snow holiday.

There was hardly anyone on the slope for the whole morning except for a small group having a lesson and about 20 or 30 people riding just for fun. I had a great time carving the slopes, hitting up the kicker, getting a few grabs in and generally smiling a lot.

I like to smile.
