Climbing things
Smashing lights
Sleeping in the street
Throwing a cone into a pond

Lambrini Jersey Session!

Lambrini Jersey Session! from ben gerrish on Vimeo.

half hour session at the back of the works... shut down by Mole!

Enjoy!

SHUTDOWN :(

Went street riding today and found these gay rails in front of one of the best street hips I've ever ridden. Don't despair, I've thought of some new lines for people to do, and it makes it even more street legit if you ride a spot that's been shut down. ACE!





Goodtimes! First person to show me footage of all three wins an LS6 sticker, hooooray!

Also, who would you rather kiss? Joe or his brother? Answers in the comments please.

Dub Jam Liverpool...

Tom hadn’t slept for 24 hours after finishing the co-op graveyard shift and watching the Emmerdale omnibus. Theo had spent half the night having sex dreams on the sofa while Elvis watched TV. Heading for the train to Liverpool I knew this was gonna be a good day.

After a frisk and a bit of a fondle the 5-0 let me leave the station amongst the crowd of rowdy football plans and within 10 minutes we had by complete chance run into The Mute and Tom Mann who knew the way to the first spot. As we rolled up to the courts the turnout was already impressive, especially considering it had started off as a jam to get old friends together, although, the large majority of the riders there were 10 years my junior, I felt old!

The riding was off the hook from the start rails and stairsets and a hand full of the famous Liverpool street spots got a kicking. Tom Mann bailed and took out Jack whilst he was filming leaving him sporting a bright red swollen cheek for the rest of the day to remind him to get out the way faster in future. I still don’t really like writing or reading trick lists of places and jams I wasn’t at so check out Tom’s photos instead, didn’t take too many but there should be an edit up soon I’m guessing so keep your eyes to www.streetphire.co.uk and www.myspace.com/dubbmx

Highlights, drunken heckling at the end of the day which resulted in three people doing their first rail, the high speed board up stairs 180 fly out competition which left all involved grazed and battered, chatting up grandma’s on the train home, shotting vodka straight from the bottle with Danny from Hollyoaks and watching Thumbs after 33 hours awake shit faced and stumbling around.

All in all an awesome day, unfortunately rounded up with a drunken trip to the hospital with Theo after a collision with Thumbs left him with a hole in his chin which resembled a second mouth but after his apparent dislike for stitches it was mended with butterflies instead… helped by Doctor Gez, holding his face together whilst the strips were put on whilst scrounging medical supplies for my first aid kit with the reasoning, “if I have this stuff myself it’ll save you time cos I’ll use it to mend people rather than coming in here” after retrieving our cider from the bush outside the hospital waiting room it was home to bed!

POP QUIZ!!!

Whats more ugly?
Bings new stem...















or this chappy?

Old leeds video's

I found these two gems on youtube today and one of them even contains a young(er) Jamie "Slam" Duncan on it, my personal favorite is the second one and the scally girl telling them all about the cheese underneath there foreskins ..... what a lovely young girl she was,

Trails Jam!

While Gez was street shredding yesterday, the rest of us went to the jam at Becketts Park organised by Chris Hardy. Local filmer Wakey Matt was their with his camera that is bigger than most of the jumps, web vid should be online soon. Bing shot some photos and I wacked them together into a PDF.

LS6BMX JAM!

NIGHTCARWLERS!

Thats right, there have been rumours and they are true!

Were doing a Jam on the 27th. Be there, it will be a good time.

A Man Amongst The Pidgeons:Thomas Mann

P 5s very own Tom Mann

Tom Mann is a name i`m sure that a lot of people our familiar with.I guess you could say hes one of those "Love or Hate",type characters

I guess i first heard about tom through part Project 5 founder Milk.He had mentioned some kid that would turn up at Burlish,on a ratty ass bike,heckle people to go ride street.Get ridicled for having pegs and no brakes ,then go riding often alone.I`m assumeing this was Mann.

A lot of people might think hes a neo-natzi,angry,opionated,bike throwing angry cunt.

What they dont know is the 2008 Tom.Toms got his shit together.Managerial job,girlfriend,got himself through uni ect.Shit the last time i saw him he was even growing his hair out.Also Mann catches his bars and throws nollies down meat stair sets and can roll with street tec,such as fakies to nollie bebs,or x-ups grinds to bazzas

Due to internet technlogy,i was able to throw a few questions Manns way.That simply would of been too random to ask over a few tinnies.

Take it as you will,lets nit-pick the brain of tinterweb,nibbler the never anonomous Tom Mann

Tom Mann i fucking salute you.BMX needs more individuality and characters that do whatever the fuck they want.

A

B

C

A.Harsh as Fuck opposite feebz.Brum."Goofy Footed for life niggazs"As Mann might say

B.Im sure this double pegs to fakie was done well under the 30 mph speed limit
C.Bars to Crooks.4 pegs kids.Pay attention!

Anger Mann.

Mann Fuckin taking it OLD.

http://video.google.co.uk/videosearch?hl=en&q=tom%20mann%20bmx&um=1&ie=UTF-8&sa=N&tab=wv#




























who,were and what are you?i'm tom mann, 23 and from dudley, in the black country. i work far too many hours in charge of the counters at sainsburys and i try to ride as much street as i can, weather and hangover permitting.



You hate potatoes,potatoe products are mint,especially chips ect. If charlie chans chippery of leeds hydepark sponsered you to eat a bag of there finest in return for 24 red stripe could you do it?i cannot stand the taste of potatoes, they taste of gash. however, let's not beat aroound the bush here, there ain't a lot i wouldn't do for 24 red stripe. red stripe, it's beer. hooray, beer!



Who are and whats happened to the KB?the kb was dent, levi, trigg and key. dent quit riding, me and the mute joined. we went riding, abused people in the street and tried to film. the stories are long, but it went up shit creek, not least when keys lung collapsed.



Describe you bike set up.brakeless, high seatpost, comfy saddle, 3 or 4 pegs, depending on the state of my wheels, small cut down bars, always need flanges on grips, double tyres.



What do you say to the kids that ask you why you tipex "rude words",spray your bike multi colored and put tennis balls,beer matts and spokey-dokeys on your bike?If you were only allowed to run pegs whilst carrying a bag of 4 bricks would you do it or just not run pegs?i was born with 4 pegs.it's a fucking bike. it's meant to be ridden, not sat there being polished so that millions of bg and comeup kids can spunk their load to it. plus, rude words are naughty and make me feel grown up. nah, it's just so it won't get nicked.



Why do you get angry when you ride?i'm generally a moody cunt. much better to take it out on my bike rather then my mates, the missus or random pissed people.



Top 3 things to do whilst not riding
drinkingciggiessharon



Describe Project 5s "The Mute" in a sentance.an absolute fucking nightmare, but nicest guy you'll ever meet.



Describe your own riding style in a sentance.sketchy, loose and full of tricks most people wouldnt even give the time of day to learn.



Describe street dave aka pain bob in a small essay or paragraph,hah ;)no pussy runs, drop to flat pissed up meathead-



Whats your opion on people bringing fly-outs,ply-wood and quick dry cement to the streets?if it's fun, do it. but changing the spot, ie wood on stairs to make it a flatbank stops it being street. that's skatepark now son. bit of cement on a curbs fine if it makes you able to boost up a spot better, though i do prefer just hopping up them.



Last trick related punny was
can't even remember the last time i had a punny. double tyres and low air pressure for the fucking win.



Top 3 bmx vid/dvd/webeddit riding sections.vinnie sammon - can i eatmike brennan - bulldog bikesjason levy - aspire



Last fight and why?i tend to scream that loud people don't fight me, but i spat in my brothers best mates face for saying he used my clippers on his pubes. cheeky cunt.




Newest trick learned?one footed half cab



UK Bmxer you would most like to see KO..ed
anybody that rides big bars and one of those drop down fit stems and has no orignality



Top 3 albums

street horrrsing - fuck buttonsthe end is close. almost no need for money. - go! with fourteen overy pleasure - duran duran duran



Why are you hated and why are you loved?
cuz i'm a gobby cunt with too much of an opionion. my barspins.



A common misconception about yourself is?
not sure? probably that i'm a miserable cunt that won't speak nicely to you or will just abuse you. i mean, i will, but i will take my shoes off in your house and ask before i get a glass of water. or that i'm into death metal.



Ive seen you throw bazzas perfectly doen ample stair sets ,does the interweb banter bother you at all?
not in the slightest. i give more banter then i get. internet beef won't ever spill over into real life and if it does, i'll smash a sprocket int heir fucking face. :-)



Describe what you enjoy about street riding?
lack of effort involved. don't need to pay. abusing the genral public. pegs. get to see some decent fanny. drops to flat.



Who influenced you the most when you first started riding?
oddboy. we'd session the shittest spots, learning peg stunts and abusing security. i still ride the same spots today.



What has been your most memorable bmx experience?
first leeds trip. it was far to hot, far too many sweaty people in one front living room and wolvo dan was on the fucking shutdown.



The come up,love it or hate it?
i go on there most days and watch the vids, but you're fucked if i'm using their message board.

Describe an average day in the life of Tom Mannwake up with a hangover. go to work, deal with far too many old people and various management twats, eat 3 or 4 sandwiches then go to the pub for pints of bitter.



Describe a perfect day in the life of Tom Mann
wake up, around 10, with mild hangover. have some sex and chill, then get picked up b y the mute. go meet the boys at some new street spots. film a good few decent clips without too much swearing. chat shit all day. go to the pub for pints of bitter and double rum and cokes.



You have your ear to the ground as for as the UK street scene,hows someone thats about to blow up?
i'm surprised no ones picked up whip shaun from s-town yet. it can't be long before someone notices gez either. not that his bike riding is better then anyone else, but he whores himself, traveling wise.



Tell us a joke
how does an elephant get out of a tree?sits on a leaf and waits for autumn.20.Who do you normally ride with?matt 'the mute parker', levi, jard boys, bc crew, wolftown locals.



Shout Outs/Thanks
levi, for free lifts everywhere. the fucking mute, too much. [project5]. anyone who's let me stop at their house. wolverhampton and dudley breweries, (fosters banks's bitter...) the staff and locals at the bridge. sharon for putting up with all my shit.



Any think else you would like to add? Words of wisdom?
don't think, just act. stay in the house as little as possible, always try and do some new shit. buy [project5] tay shirts. come to our street jams. don't fuck goats.

York bmx Vid's

York Vid from gusto on Vimeo.


Street from gusto on Vimeo.

I got chatting to a rider up at hyde yesterday and he was telling me that he was filming for a York Based bmx video, and that he is also on kyle of man's graphic design course and the tutor has been showing off Johnny foreigner Kyle's work to him and his year, anyway I had wee search on Vimeo for York videos and came across these two, the top one starts off with some naked riding which ls6bmx fully endorses (check out the summer 08 vid on the videos page) and features some cool spots and riding, and the second one has a horrible song at the beginning but don't let that put you off, as it has a nuts rail hop that Mole and Kyle of man have eyed up in the past, so check them out if your bored.

LATTITUDE ZINE

I love the nature of zines,the ability to write whatever the fuck you want,with out any second party,persuadeing what you write.

Skate zines are allways interesting read.Everyone enjoys Buff-zine and STPs Flipped-zine ect.I fear zines are a dying breed.

Lattitude zine isnt solely one thing or the other.Although there is a lot of 2-wheeled interest.Parts of it have made me "LOL" as they say.

I asked Jimmy @ Lattitude what he had to say about the zine:

Lattitude is basicly anything anyone wants to make it. Our reader base essentially make up our so-called staff. Anything anyone wants to write about, display photos or art of is what the contents of each issue are. Based on anarchist principles of free will, individual liberty and d.i.y. fundamentals - easy enough.

Leland from Shitluck and myself do another project by the name of Fuck Gas, website in the works, at the moment the blog is fuckgas. wordpress. comtake care,jimmy

The cut and paste zine from louisville is also available online:

Couple of mint videos for yous.

" I said Puk you sir"

I hate the rain but I love the fact I can use it as an excuse to spend all day on youtube, and today I have been mostly watching the best of Jonah Takalua, so if you get a chance watch the videos above...

STP's secret formula exposed!!!!

Ever wondered how Scott The Punk goes so high? well.... its nothing to do with all that pedaling fast which is what he would like you to believe, it is in fact down to the beverage you see above...That's right ls6bmx can exclusively reveal that Scott has a secret swig of his own brand of "fuel injection"before riding and blasting those 1foot x-ups.

Where The Fuck Is Troy McMurray ??

Where the fuck is is Troy McMurry? Who cares!

Anyone thats been riding more than a few years will know that this previous S and M sponsered pioneer will shred anything in his path.Troys "glory years" were probably around the realese of the S and M video 4.

Sending rails both ways.Bazza across big gaps and creative breakless lines.Winning Austin Texas sports and music festival the day after getting out of jail.

Inspirering kids to ditch there breaks(well before it was cool) or biting peoples ears of at 2-hip meet the street competions.

A True "Pro",as they say. Maybe hes sat on an unbroken S and M Sabbath frame throne, myspaceing Zach Sprinkle about that time at bike 97 when Zach dropped the whopper to frame of the driveway ledge and threw the bmx world into disbelief.

What ever the fuck hes doing all the best to him,its not our place to interfere.That is unless hes working with previous x-gaymes gimp Chris Duncan then we can all ROFL with the rest of the BMX world.

Rain rain go away!

whats with all this rain? it sucks big style. i dont have much to say other than that!

Kyle's birthday

Gypo Kyle turned 22 at midnight last night, we started the celebrations a couple of hours early in the Dry dock, then went to some awful club night at hifi, were we got kicked out for elvis groping someone (thats bullshit, that little dude just couldnt handle that people were having fun at his club i reckon).

The real party started on the 2 hour walk home, including tug of wars, donating clothes to the homeless, shopping trolleys and cusions, bloody knuckles, bus drivers, taxis, pizzas, wedgies, sign removing, and police.

brilliant.

"I dont believe in an eye for an eye... I believe in two eyes for an eye"

Bumped into fathead at the skatepark today, he told us about this guy Bas Rutten, and he is amazing, STP needs to see these videos...the running commentary when he blows up some guys liver is priceless, joe bailey says "spot on"
