Please someone out there save me from this insanity!! It's been a while since I wrote a blog so aplogies for that but today has kick started me back into life such is the madness outside in the street!

Following last weekend's brilliant Red Bull Pro Nationals down at Landrake I now find myself in a complete state of distress. There was I thinking I'd take a nice bank holiday weekend off. I really didn't fancy a jaunt all the way up to Duns to take in the Maxxis championship and support my Twisted 7 lads (they're big enough and ugly enough to look after themselves) so I've decided to kick back in my lovely little home town (well village actually) and much to my shock it's become like Royston Vasey!!

If this is what goes on here every May Bank Holiday I'm glad I'm usually away racing. I'm certainly going to make sure I'm away next year for sure. Much to my horror right outside on the village green are grown men in silly costumes beating sticks and jumping around like they are smaked out of their heads! Maybe that's why they have ribbons tied so tight to their arms so they can find a vein to get 'smacked' up!! And just when I thought that was all over and I couldn't help but get excited as the announcer said that pole dancing was up next (by the way the announcer sounds a little bit like the legendary 'It's a knockout' presenter Stuart Hall  - which is the only ray of light from this strange going on!)  Of course it turns out to be a very different type of pole dancing than what I was hoping for!! That might have made me venture out.

Oh it's a May Day alright!! Someone save me for Christ sake!! Next year I'm definitely getting out of this place and going riding or to a race where things are all 'normal'!!
