SHAKE IT 'TIL THE MEAT COMES OFF THE BONES!
I know we are already a couple of months into 2012 but here are some of my favourite shots of myself competing in the 2011 race season. Obviously, my choice of pictures shows me in the best light possible but on the other hand, like they say....the camera never lies!
Looking forward to the start of the new season on April 1st (no joke)... as the competition continues to get stronger I've no idea how I'll do this coming season but I feel I've finally recovered from my various injuries I picked up late last year and feel it's gonna be a good year for dirt track in the UK!

THE STAGS...VALENTINES DRAG NIGHT
Great show at the weekend to celebrate Valentines day....girls dressed as boys and boys dressed as girls. Pulled 'Husky' out of the bag after a 5 year lay off...it felt good!

DIRT QUAKE.....feel the rumble!!
Just announced...this will be a doozie! Lots of stuff planned but top of the heap for me is the UK's first ever dirt track chopper race. If it's heavy, hard to handle and totally unsuitable for track use...then it's in!
Pics are from a similar event that took place in Finland last year

Takes me right to the spot.....
Just received this shirt in the post from Tim Stamp. It's a short sleeve repro of the MAX shirt that I wore in 1982.
It's a high quality screen print on a 'Super-Premium' Fruit of the Loom and a limited run of 20 pieces.
Tim also excelled himself last year with a repro BICYCLE MOTOCROSS ACTION MAGAZINE long sleeve.
The BMX ACTION shirts are long gone but the MAX design, at this moment, is still available. If anybody wants one, get in touch and I'll pass on Tim's contact details.
