Glasgow
Glasgow… I love this place. After making the trip almost yearly, it has been a bit since I was here, due to all that travel restriction shite. After a sleep filled flight I was treated to waiting for my bike bag that never came through (as well as Trent Lutzke’s), seemed everything that was connecting in London Heathrow got delayed or lost. Another reason London is a shiter. Fred Murray (who also just got back home from a fun-filled time in Boston) scooped us up and we went straight to The Loading Bay to help setting things up. The UCI world championships were going on and with that comes all the bologna skin gear, carbon fiber and tourists clogging up my favorite city. Aside from that, the DIG Gallery and BSD Jam was a blast. I didn’t shoot any photos of the jam because I was socializing and what not. I also rode in the long jump, but didn’t do too hot… I realized my tires were at about 40psi… I didn’t bother to fill them up when I arrived. We also did some sweet video premiers after, like the Fred Murray documentary by Peter Adam which should be out somewhere soon.
Perfect start to the wonderful trails sessions to come in the next few weeks.
