Get There While You Can.

I moved to Louisville, KY a little over 7 years ago. I would say that I found this ditch within the first month or two of me living here and have been waiting for it to be dry since. It's got everything you'd want in a ditch: smooth ground, perfectly pitched walls with tranny at the bottom, plenty of flat, and amazing hips, gaps, and ledges in it. It's also got this wallride.

When my wife and I bought our house 4 years ago, I was psyched because this ditch was less than a block from it and I knew that I'd get a daily look at whether or not it was dry. It never was.

Until a week and a half ago. I got a call on my way home from work that there were a few guys skating it so I rushed home and grabbed my gear. Cole had been killing it all day and volunteered to jump up and do this axle stall again for a photo. I don't love the photo except for the fact that after waiting for 7 years I finally got to shoot something in this ditch.

Cole Wilson, ollie up to axle smash.

Why would it suck to be a pro cyclist?

Have a drink after dinner and you're removed from the Vuelta a Espana. Poor Andy and Stuart. I wonder what they were drinkin'. Well, I guess they could have as many drinks as they like now. I'd call that a good problem.
