Watching friends do dumb stuff

Post-Roubaix drinks session in Flagstaff Gardens...

Benzy convinces Rob to try and play this 'game'...

You have to eat the plastic ringpull from a six pack no-handed. You win if you get it all in the your mouth at once. You don't have to swallow.

Funny to watch, scary to think about.. both competitors gagged...

Don't call it a comeback

So I was pretty pumped to see this arrive in my inbox today...

THE REVIVAL from morehartfilms on Vimeo.

The blurb was as follows...
"In the name of good times, great spots and progressive riding, we are proud to announce that we’re packing our bags and hitting the road. Armed with HD cameras we’ll be heading out in search of some of the best riding North America has to offer.
Beginning on May 16th, 2009 we will be touring eastern cities, starting in Toronto then heading to Montreal and finally arriving in the Big Apple. We aim to reveal the riding and culture that exists within each one of these amazing cities. Filming is also underway in Vancouver where the locals have been pushing hard to lay down some of the best lines ever seen on a fixed gear. Along for the ride are some of the most progressive riders on bikes today, including but not limited to:
Tom Briggs
Duncan Lewis
Sam Miller
Tom Mosher
Ryan Nariata
Eiichiro "TenTen" Temmyo
Torey “HFwido” Thorton
Wonka
Wayne Morehart
and Many More.
"

Given that i have ridden with (and can call myself a good friend of) a lot of these riders I am really stoked to see this come together. It has been rumoured for a few months... and i have heard a few more 'guest' names mentioned.

This will hopefully be an amazing film... with some very positive attitudes and some very different styles.

PS: there's a pint to the first person to spot my cameo in the trailer ;)
