Animal bike shows and Wisley KOD

Sup Everyone,

Had an awesome weekend started off on Friday up early with James Big Hair headed down to Bournemouth for a day riding demo's on the Animal Relentless Bike Tour. the weather was a bit dodgy, crazy windy but the rain held off. was a super fun day riding with my bro and Martin Ashton.

Saturday James and were up early again and off to Wisley for the final round of the King of Dirt. It had been moved from Sunday to Saturday because the weather forecast was crappy. took us 4 hours because of hectic traffic but finally made it and the trails looked so sick , I had not been there in ages and there had been a few changes to the jam line with new hips and different lines looked amazing and i could not wait to shred. Riders started turning up and the session was going off and before we new it the Open comp started all the riders were killing it the standard has most definitely got higher with tail whips and flips becoming the norm. Tom Ren and Craig Potter were the ones that stood out with such a massive bag of tricks.
Pro comp started and it was 3 runs on the jam line and 3 on the pro line. i was a little nervous as always but soon chilled out once i got my first run out the way. good to see Rob Newman shredding its been a long time since i have seen crank flip to xup. got all the runs done on the jam line then moved onto the pro line and with only the last 2 jumps being scored you had a lot of time to think about you run while getting to the last ones had some good runs best was a flip table to downside whip. Highlight of the day was seeing Sam Ren pull a front flip over the small take off to flat.
Sam took the win with me in second and Adam Williams in 3rd.
Prize giving and in the Open Tom Ren took the overall KOD with Craig Potter in 2nd and in Pro it was Daryl Brown taking 3rd overall with Clinton Johns in 2nd and Me taking the overall win was a sweet moment for me so stoked.

Amazing weekend and thanks to DMR for the support you guys are awesome.

PEACE!
