Just a really good video part

It's About Time - Jason Teet from John Thompson on Vimeo.

I cant help but post this. This dude isnt local or anything, he just does some gnar gnar shit in this video. Found this on the come up. But yea, not too much riding has been going down lately in the friend circle for the most part due to holiday stuff and inconvenient rain that we actually need desperetly. Not sure if other riders in the area have been riding, bt most likly they have been, if not happy holidays, relax and chill out for a bit. Ive been riding a little bit lately, but my knee is killing me today so im about to chill out on the bmx for a bit. Also ill be putting out a new edit soon of the winter footage.

Since im on the subject about filming and video editing, I dont know how much longer I want to be doing this for since other things in life have come up that I would like to spend more time doing. Riding is one thing but not first priority. School is the main thing that I want to get through since this economy is real bad and it doesnt look like it is going to get any better any time soon, so ill stay in school for as long as it takes to get some legitimate degrees in geography and what not.
Another thing that has started to become a big deal to me is music, and trying to write and play songs for a demo and hopfully an album if people like what they hear. Playing music is way more legit than trying to go big on a bike since the risk-reward is more forgiving with music. To score a job or some more income than what I already get would be legit as well. Couldnt find a way through blogging or editing videos, so still "looking for gold."
If you get the impression so far that this blog wont be updated as much, you interpreted wrong. Ill still update more than twice a week because there is always something going down. I feel like I owe it to the local scene to show what people are doing and if they want to get noticed. By the way, everyone who is hoping to see bikes allowed into WC park will be stoked to go to city meetings in th early part of 2009, and we got this in the bag. email me why mkbmx@astound.net
Last of all, this summer, im moving to San Francisco. This is going to create a problem of staying connected to the Concord, WC, PHill, Martinez areas. Thats why im going to need some help to keep this alive. Someone who is totally down with the scene out here needs to step up and post things that go unseen by me, or at least tell me about it and ill post it.
Ok I lied when I said last thing. Speaking of posting things, I went to Alex's house in Pleasanton the other day and he showed us his ramp, empty pool, and trails project there. He's got a legitimate set up, and unfortunatly he got hurt recently, and the surgery doesnt sound to happy. He fractured his growth plate in this knee. Get well soon bud.
What the fuck has been up with most people wanting to get hurt recently. JJ Palmere tore his ACL, so I think ill go tear mine. Thats not supposed to be a trend.
It's not christmas anymore, so I cant say that. Happy holidays everyone, and if you want to shred, go for it, and if your just down to chill, chill.

Peace!
See everyone in 2009
