Do-er

Dave Skooter Farm is a Do-er. Some of the ideas that are thrown around the Sideburn camp are a little crazy-peeps. In a normal environment, a delusional philosopher's 'genius' idea would be laughed off and they would be ordered to buy another round of drinks. Who'd have thought a motorized steak 'n' kidney pie would make a 'suitable' pace-car? Dave would. Dave did. And so Dirt Quake is blessed with the adoption of said vehicle.

A couple of months ago, when the best of the summer had already moved on, the idea surfaced of riding a motorbike in a skateboard bowl. Dave had built his own bowl in his back garden (its footprint is bigger than that of the bungalow itself), John Highside offered up a ropey old Honda Dax, and faster than you can say "Jack Robinson" I was on my way to Wigan with my camera. "Oh can you get a couple of leggy models too?". We were truly blessed with the weather. Gt Man (aka Greater Manchester) has never looked so So Cal.

Positively, absolutely, legitimately and everlastingly cool. Hope there's more shots to come BP . . .

Bloody awesome, what sort of bribes do I need to offer Dave to skate his bowl. I cant live more than 10 miles away from it.
