EBFF ii

a scant few hours since i scampered from the filmhouse, i'm back again for a showing of klunkerz at the edinburgh bike film festival. no time for nachos, but plenty for a beer or two with anna, gary, peter, shearer and su.

a slightly sugary documentary on the early days of mtbing in marin county, it's an interesting enough, but you get the impression the real story is in what isn't said...

q&a with jacquie afterwards is entertaining, particularly the q for a youngster in front of us who asks whether jacquie has been to that modern day mtb mecca, glentress.

couple of beers afterwards at the excellent chopchop in haymarket (in the presence of one of the standing start directors nae less) and we fifers are on the dundee train and heading home for a *very* quiet saturday.

tomorrow brings a tspc outing to see 24-solo, a few hours at work and tea at my maw's.

I am one of the riders featured in "Klunkerz."

For a lot of the story that doesn't appear in the film, you might have a look at my website.
