I rather grind up

After a gloomy start to the day, the sun finally came out and I was ready to shred once again. After work, I met up with K-Phan, Sam, Jon and Shane to blade the cement sk8park in Pepperell MASS. After warming up and playing a game of skate with K-Phan, I was ready to move on to the next spot. We headed to the infamous "up rail" to get some real blading done. We bladed, laced some tricks, took some pics and then K-Phan busted out a crazy motorcycle stunt. He stood on his bike while it was moving, pretty good for a kid that's been riding for about a month.

I am almost finished

With all this rain the past couple of weeks my dad and I were able to make some progress on my custom single speed. Got most of the small things done, just need a few more things and it should be ready to go. After putting on the seat I enjoyed some nice homemade chocolate cake with a big glass of milk.

Sir Banks A Lot

I met Ercaderk, J.diaz, and knoxy at this park along Memorial Drive. Erc gapped to roll immediately.

Then mono rolled it with a grab.

Then Justin did pretty much the same thing but on the kink railing.

Then soul to...

The blade adventures began after devastating the habitat with hot deals and pulls. We unintentionally found ourselves blading hella banks.

Woods getting juiced at Rindge & Latin which has hella new ledges that are capped.

Starting things off proper with a pencil air dedicated to pencil legs.

Double knee grab the channel.

the blade adventures of ian and russ

I rode my two wheeler with blades on back to North Station to meet Ru$$ who had traveled from Lowell by locomotive. I advised an exploration of the back of a nearby building and we spotted this "Go Celtics" barrier.

We began with some basics then Russ pulled this backside roy to sign bonk.


Next move was a short blade down the harbor walk to some natty launches to do lui kangs and what not.

We ventured into the bridge after some hot deals in the North End. I showed Ru$$ the sewer that ate the Ragone bone fone and the gone baby rail was across the way so we figured we'd blade that jawn.

This is by the door by the rail.

Can't blade the bridge without shredding this old fav.

...and Anna's, had to hit that up also.

another day, another dollar

Today started off bad. I dropped my Jeep off at the local garage to get an oil change and then the mechanic called 30 minutes later to tell me that I needed 2 new tire rods. So I talked to the guy and told him to get me a price and call me back. Within 10 minutes I was back on the phone with the mechanic and he told me $145 for the 2 tire rods. I said okay, do it, at this point I needed my skate mobile.

The day turned around when my boss's got a ton of food from Omaha Steakhouse and we had an amazing cookout. Thank you Steve, Adam and Jim, you guys are the best. After stuffing myself with steak, burgers and hot dogs, I was in no mood to blade after work. I got a call from Kev Phan, he wanted to blade so I thought about it and was like what the hell I need to burn off all that food I ate. K-Phan, Sam and myself bladed 2 decent wooden skateparks in NH and had a decent amount of fun. After that, I really can't say this was a bad day at all.

randomness

I ordered some wheels and bearings last week and didn't expect them to arrive until tomorrow or Wednesday. Got them today, I was pumped. My buddy Steve is good at skating and drawing, check out his sticker on the rail, some BSCC stickers are on the way.

not brimming

I met up with Joe Black from Grafton, Mass at the MIT ledges and then we bladed there and the surrounding area.

Erca and J diaz met us at this spot across from the Tootsie Roll factory.

Erca jamming pole.

Ian Hutcho top porning graffitified truck.

This building used to have a decrepit wood launch that a biker did. Now it's a fun little concrete launch/wallride.

Bladed some Cambridge parks, playgrounds and schools and this was at one of them.

I noticed this new MIT spot when I was biking home.

this says it all

Cambridge Used Bicycles has some great bumper stickers and they have also added BSCC on their links page.
