sneaking into Canada next week...
I always feel honored to have friends like you guys and if you would like to stop by the compound maybe have some Kool Aide and pudding I could try to enlighten you about these new friends of mine who seem to think we are all one.
Skating fast but not as fast as you guys.
aint seen your package...uh...I keep loaning out my gloves to these Vail newbies...the future.

Has your sponsorship package arrived yet? Price mis-spelled the name of your street at the Post Office so I hope the Carrier knows that it's Nottingham instead of Norringham. Either way you are my favorite ham. If it gets returned we can make Dave bring it to you personally.

Rob! YOOOO DA MAN!! Too many of those Krishna folk here in London but a bit of song and dance always brightens my day. All these folks here are so up their own asses you've gotta smile when you see a band of peace loving Skinheads Dancing through the corporate wankers on the side walk banging on their drums and symbols.. Beats the pants off most of those other "Godly" folk tryna tell you its their twisted way or
eternal suffering. Waaaah haaa ha. Sounds like you are continuing to live it up Rob,you're an inspiration to us all! have fun bombing all those rad roads in Rado brother!! Hope i can come out their for a visit some day in the not so distant future.
peace

Hitchn yesterday up Vail Pass to ride to Copper, my Friday ride. I got a lift from a Hari Krishna, I haven't read the book yet so I don't know if I;m spelling it correctly? So this guy is real nice and I figure if he try's anything I could roll this lil old dude. As soon as he told me he was a Krishna I cracked a joke about not seeing his peeps in airports lately, just to let him know i was goin to be a tough sell. My church, The Church of Skatin, hasn't been around that long but we have all kinds and acceptence is importatnt. I've had rides from scary drunk construction workers to crazy hookers who wanna take me back to there place. People who pick you up and then tell ya they will go outta there way to give you a ride, that can be kinda scary or a definate red flag. Hitchhiking is a large part of bombing hills for me and I have considered keeping a journal of all the rides I've had. But I can't remember to brush my teeth or not to smoke sometimes. The scariest rides though...the religious cats. Ya just never know thier level of devotion or how bad they need members. This guy had his sell down! He was talking about goin through life on a board and how meditation is like flying down a hill and just kept trying to be serious about Krishna. My whole take was how the Church of Skatn had more members and could probably kick his ass in the ensuing Holy War between our to groups. He had these lil prayer beads and asked if The Church of Skatn used material objects to embody hope and faith??? I pulled out a skate tool and started speaking in tounges.
Rado is goin off!! There's Outlaws, big mountains, pretty animals and longboards everywhere. Any hill I choose to ride now there are signs of other Church members coming for service. Vail Pass is still littered with the sign holders the highway folks promised to pick up in 2004 after the Pass Timeship race. It's 5 am now and time to get ready for church. Mass today will be conducted at the top of Cottonwood with a peak at Poncha down south. Don't come to Rado!

O.P.D. is hitting big up in the High Country. OPD t shirts anyone? Tom Settler stopped by this weekend and ripped up some freshies and got first decsent on ???? Road. (and he didn't see the code Justin) The hill is kinda hidden unless your across a valley and then you see this band of dropping OPD. Tom slayed the dragon and also hit some OPD while waiving hello to the security cameras. Here's the ones I can name on the hit list;) Red Sandstone, Buffer Creek, Red Sky Ranch, Daybreak Ridge, Colorow, Alpine Drive,Cresta and OPD's that are hard to walk down. Go ahead and Goog Erf some of those from your couch and dream bout Colorado. Tom was able to ride some crazy gnar in 24hours and glad to see these hills ridden without footahbreaky.
I've noticed I keep putting photos of dead animals up here while other posts contain skateboarding footage. And thank you guys for keeping me in the loop. This lil guy killed himself Saturday. I tried to get around him but when a chipmunk wants to die who am I to not come down on his lil rodent stature with the Radikal hangar of judgement.
I'm startin to think my new leathers will not have my name on them. Riding hills with such heavy bust factor and killing animals while riding. It might be smart to have "McKendry" streaked across my butt while trying to flee. I should get somebody elses name...I can see the cops now looking for this guy "Huey or Dubes" who keeps blowing thru security gates. Dan Dengler has now droppped in for a couple days and we are outta here like a dead chipmunk to Vail Pass. See ya on the top.

Couldn't think of a better way to start the day. I'm on my way up yo Daybreak right now with a crew of 2 to do some recon. Fun to call a private shuttle from the resort to poach the hill. We skate a hill with heavy security using thier shuttle service. Beaver Creek is dead to me!
What a country...high country. Vail is primed and all the roads are hitting.
Sun is shining and I can't look at this computer any longer. peace
