Preston Bloody Preston

So as you can see there's been a few changes round here. It's not all finished yet but there's only so many hours in the day, it'll be done soon enough though. The grey and orange was how I originally intended Gain to look; the blue layout was just a standard template that blogger give you to use. It was nice and convenient but not really what I was after, now everything is more photo orientated.

Here's some of my first attempts at using my camera properly; shooting RAW files instead of JPEGs. I wont bore you too much with what that means if you don't know already. But it basically takes shooting digital closer to shooting film. It works by taking the equivalent of a negative that is then processed by the user (me) rather than the camera, at a later stage. Anyway, it'll hopefully make for better pictures.

After all this website redesign I'm not quite up to the South Wales tour post yet. There's probably about 5 posts worth of stuff for that anyway. These pictures are from our recent attempts to ride street in Preston, which promises much but really hasn't delivered yet- out of 2 sessions and about 150 miles driven we've managed less than an hours worth of riding!

This Tommy wall ride is pretty much all that's occurred so far, hopefully we'll get better at reading weather forecasts in future.

God's Wraith? - This wall belongs to a church, minutes after Tommy rode on a church it rained and I got a popped wheel (which would've never happened if Tommy hadn't ridden on that church).

There's more! Not content with riding all over the house of God, Tommy completes a 'Stunt' to 'Run' conversion by immediately 180ing these steps. No wonder he's been in Ride.
