This Sunday just gone me and the lads hooked up with Mr Matt Parker of Project 5 fame and hit the streets of Birmingham. It was an awesome day, even if we did get like 6 punctures between us all! Project 5 organise rad street jams and if you haven't been to one yet keep your eyes peeled for details on the next one which should be happening sometime in August. Check out the P5 myspace at;

Nik Ford - The last 6 years on Ride UK BMX Magazine website.... PART 1


Robin Fenlon asked me to pen some words detailing the last 6 years of my life for the Ride Mag and he has posted part one online today. Hit up the link below:

Wearing a helmet whilst riding is something I can not emphasize enough, if I wasn't wearing one I wouldn't be typing this blog entry and sharing my story with you.

Part two will be up tomorrow and I can assure you it is more uplifting than part 1 !

In other news, I placed 2nd in the ledge jam at Redditch skatepark on Sunday just gone (see poster in post below)
