Rene,

I won't be at this year's La Costa races. I'll be in Brazil for the World Speed record race at Teutonia in Rio Grand Du Sol, Brazil. I fly to Brazil, October 9th and return on November 19th.

I enjoyed racing at La Costa very much! Good luck to you and to everyone racing this year.

Cliff

Juan Martinez
On 8/6/2007 Cliff Coleman wrote in from Sweden  (89.160.nnn.nnn)

Juan,

I like many mistreated people feel like Rosa Parks did when she was wrongly mistreated. Simply a comparison. As for you being an illegal, you probably have native blood and are just returning to the land that was taken from you in the first place. Read what the sign says at Ellis Island. The welcome to the masses seems hollow. I feel that all of the peoples of the world are my brothers and sisters! Everyone wants a better life. It shouldn't matter what a person's location of birth is. Some say, *one World, one people*. I agree.

Long time no hear!

You still have a slide lesson and you pre-paid. E-mail me at: "sk8fast@gmail.com". I have a great spot, close and accessible.

Good luck to you on this one.

Get a lawyer--- I'm sure there is a lawyer/skater you know in the East Bay. Maybe he can dig up some more "dirt" on the guy you had the altercation with.

Just don't let the judge see the old pic of you doing a slide....... NAKED as a jaybird! That one wouldn't sit too well in court!

Let me know if I can help! Maybe I can put some buckshot in the guys ass for ya! (I am a gun owner, you know!) ;)

Judging Paskapoo Slide Contest?

Cliff
Sorry to hear about the bigot. Hopefully you were able to kick the smoothie out of his hand like the other time. Are you judging the paskapoo slide contest? I am going up there, but Malakai is going to stay back in Denver. I hope your case goes well.

Cliff-
Hope everything is turning out well with your physical altercations. You are such a BRUTE. You have always have had that bad-boy personna! Seriously, had a great time skating with you in S.F. Dylan and I would like to skate with you again. I know you are getting busy, let me know. Does Sergio keep track of this web-site often? Good luck in your events, hope all is well-
Lance

Skater Haters
On 7/19/2007 Cliff Coleman wrote in from United States  (75.20.nnn.nnn)

To everyone out there that skates. I was riding and a bigot against skateboarders yelled, belittled, cuss3ed me out and then spit on me. I defended myself and he stopped, so I stopped also. There was no more need to defend myself. Later, this guy called the cops on me and now I'm being tried for a misdemeanor battery in criminal court. Please, if you have an experience that you have hadd to face regarding skater haters that have vented their bigotery at you, then please write a polite letter to me at: "sk8fast@gmail.com". I would like to take you letters of your experiences to court with me. I'm like Rosa Parks and I refuse to stop being who I am, a skateboarder for life. The Constitution says we have the right of liberty, but do we really? Liberty is being able to do as we please. Look it up in the dictionary.

Once again, please send you letters to me to take with me to court to prove the bigotry that all skaters face.

Thanks,
Cliff Coleman

Shawn,

I couldn't open the web page you posted but if you mean the guys from Brazil, I've seen them and skated with them and they are the best I've seen so far. There are some exceptions like Chris Dahl etc but they really impressed me!

Best to you Shawn and come skate Berkeley with me sometime.
