I found this photo I shot recently of Jeff Bedard on his bike, doing anything but riding, feeling rough a morning after. Vancouver here we come.

Another 2005 throwback of Rich Redmond with a tailwhip gap at the old Ottawa Skatepark while filming for Scene Here. Time flies. I don’t even remember who shot this, but I’m holding a video camera in the background.

Don’t let Rich intimidate you with his magic.

The starter hip. 5 feet tall, 15 feet wide landing. Beauty.

The line. Tommy is standing on the first jump.

Big news on the Casselman front. Newly indoctrinated resident Rich Redmond has been hard at work the past couple of days digging some gnarly trails in his field. Ignore the bobcat in the photo, the trails were actually hand dug entirely by Rich, using only one hand.
The trails consist of a hip to the right/roll in, a roughly 5 foot tall six pack and a quarter to bank setup (pictured above) where you can turn around and hit a 5 foot tall tabletop. It looks like it is going to be a lot of fun, but there is still much work to be done. I know Rich wants to hold a contest sometime this fall, but we need to get everything done first. On that note, if you plan to ride these warlocks, you probably want to get ahold of Rich and put in a day of digging, otherwise you may be denied access to the trails the same way girls deny Jorden access to their vajayjays.

This Throwback Thursday is brought to you by the fearless Remi Cyr, floating a (bowlegged) 270 table over the hip at CP back in 2006. It begs the question of few past names of the Ottawa scene, where are they now?

Yesterday while riding CP, I lost one of my bar ends and before I had a chance to notice I almost lost the tip of my finger. One of the most gruesome cuts I have ever endured, that jagged metal bar opening tore me a new one. Sure, it wasn’t my nutsack… but it still sucks. 5 stitches later I’m sitting around waiting for it to heal so I can ride in Van next month. Stupid Universe, always working against me…

Because of the time of year, we will be competing with school playground construction so it might not happen until after labour day, but either way we should have a jump to ride this season! So hopefully Jorden wont have to do this trick over an awkward hip much longer and can take it properly to a big box jump.

Jay Leroux sent me this video he put together of Steve Moxley for Want/Sour Fever/Core riding the L’Orignal park.
