weve been on the road and it has been hard to get on a computer in a few days.. the last few days have been awesome.

we left portland on thursday afternoon and headed west to the coast. we drove down the entire coast of oregon and it was gorgeous. there was alot of really preatty coastlines and it was a nice site to look at for a while. and i saw this awesome spray paint tag along the way (wolf it?) and we pulled over on the side of the road and an elk walked right up to the car

we slept in a hotel parking lot just outside of california and i woke up and had an amazing continental breakfast.. cereal and bagels and eggos and fruit and juice..soooo good.. debbie slept.
after that i headed south into california and off to the RED WOOD FOREST!!! oh my god was that place amazing..pictures do it no justice at all.. that is by far the most amazing thing i have ever seen in my life. go there right now. buy a plane ticket and go.. theres trees 400 feet tall.. not even exaggerating.theres trees you can drive your car through.. i loved the trees so much i hugged them

after that we headed south to san francisco. that place was nothing like i expected it to be.. there were crack heads everywhere begging for money there were people getting shot and hookers and i had to take every single thing out of the car because the bums would break in and take anything they could..i wasnt that siked on the place. the golden gate bridge is definitly not any cooler than any other bridge i have drove across.. place sucks
sean did introduce us to some cool people though. and the next day we headed north to ride a few skateparks.. they were coool. we went to a park in navado wich was one of the best parks i have ever rode.. there was hips everywhere and lines all over the place

this kid colby was showing me around riding spots while sean got a gypsy tattoo.. but we were at the park for 2o mins and he tried to flip something he didnt even jump first and he nose cased and bent his frame in half...LOL. fortunately he was fine and still in good spirits but unfortunately be couldnt ride for the rest of the day.. but he was sweet and we cruised on to another park in peteluma.. it was an old school style park with no coping and some awesome hips. i had seen it in some videos before.. it was fun but the paint was slippery.. colby took this sweet pic of me .. thanks colby

then we headed more north to santa rosa park.. that place was awesome but it was hard to ride at first and there was alot of people there so i kinda just hung out with all the locals and it was a good time.. the park was similar to the one in petaluma.. it was old school no coping but the lines there were amazing.. the locals were killing the place

thats enough posting for now..the parks were fun and today was awesome too but im over posting so im gonna post more tomorow.. check it out tomorrow

oh yea.. check out circuit bmx.
vic has a video on there of mark mulville riding some trails in pittsburgh..brock filmed it while he was there and made an edit for espn.. the video is funny and worth watching
