Grey sky, Yellow bike
Skies are grey today so I can’t go out on my new BMX. I bought it last week – a cheap ‘n’ cheerful GT Performer in the late summer sales. I wanted a Lime Green GT Zone one but they were all out of stock 
So I settled for a sunny yellow one instead. I haven’t had a BMX for a few years and I figured it would help my MTB cycling and be a laugh too.
Funny thing is that I took it out for a blast at the ramps in the woods (just a few hundred yards from my home) and hit the deck on my first run-up LOL. Ended up with a bloody arm and badly bruised knees and legs (hit some metal-work on the way down). Now THAT’s what it’s all about.
EDIT: 10 October: OK, I forgot to mention this – it wasn’t just a bruise on my shin, ends up I took a chip out of the front of my shinbone. BIG lump there now. Anyway, it would have been cool to go down the A&E, get an X-ray and post it here for all to see, but that would have been a complete waste of time apart from getting a cool x-ray pic. What would else would they have said other than, hey, you got a chipped bone? Also my “little” bro did the same last week – he clear one ramp, scuffed the 2nd and landed his bike on top of him at the 3rd – he broke his collar bone.
