We’re going to Poland cuz the World Cup is next weekend and we’re going to ride this weekend. But he’s frothing. We got Tomos back there as well. And we’re off. Trolley stunts, guys. It’s 11:30 and we’ve made it to swag, right? I’ve got my sey new pants on. And we’ve made it. Some fashion icon. I’m not sure. Got a steey hoodie on. Oh, you can buy this weekend. Next weekend. Yeah. Not this weekend, Poland. It’s not a racist kid. But we are in Poland. Come to ride at Charora Bike Park. I was waiting for this guy, the boy. Walking in with style. And um we’re off to get our bags and our bikes and all that kind of stuff. It’s like midnight. Yeah. See you. How easy is that to get off? It’s like midnight and um I think we’re all a bit delusional. That was the longest flight of my life and it was about 2 hours. Oh guys, I’m going to go with there’s no balls. Oh, one n baby. Okay. Are we allowed to spin? Are we? Yeah. [ __ ] spin. And this is a tie breaker. Ryan’s pulled a handle off. Benny can’t get the ball. This is an intense game. Can you get a sweet dump here, dude? Ryan’s pulling my box apart cuz for some reason why we need that again. Right. This is our whip for the week. It’s a huge big van. Front seat. Yeah. Right. We’re at breakfast. We’ve got Remy with us. He’s just trying to get his SIM card. Taco Pancakes. Remd’s got 4%. So, you’re not 4% match rate. This is my Turkish eggs. I got some bread. Rey’s telling us how he uh tried his phone last night. Right. We’re doing some shopping. Oh, we should go get the shoes. I’m getting the shoes in my LSD. Um Thomas just apparently doesn’t know what a changing room is and he’s just doing it in the middle of the store. I did forget my books. Oh god. Oh yeah, dude. Look at those shoes. The jacket combo. It’s a bit small. Right, we’ve just stopped. Bernie’s taking his new kicks for a spin. Tags on and all still. Right, we’ve made it to the bike park. Well, by the bike park in this ACOM. It’s called um family ski and bike, I think. And they have hooked us up with some acom little playground for Remy to play on. Little cute swing. We got our stuff out here. Yeah. Family ski. Oh, goodness me. We’re about to build some bikes. This guy’s kept this box like in perfect condition. And mine he’s decided to like rip it off and rip this one out and put like holes in it everywhere. Put like holes in it everywhere, dude. You can have it here. I’m checking out what we put down. Bike work stand. Here you go. We got someone pumping up their shop. We got someone pumping up their tire. It’s taken about 10 minutes already. Remy’s getting there. Got the sheep skin on. I like his sheep skin built up over here. Got new shoes on. This is how the new pivot runs. Apparently Dia not even bolted on. The wheels going to come off. Here we are watching wildie do his tire pressures. I don’t know how it reads. What is it? Like the fo block, but it’s still giving it like an accurate. This is how funny we found you in year one. It’s a good time. We’re getting there, dude. On the door. One thing I’ve 12 years into my cycling career, it always takes so long to get ready to go riding. Does it? Or is it just you? Maybe that’s just for me, but it’s one thing I’ve learned. Cambodia. I’m keen to cambula. You couldn’t even read what it said on the on the tire gate. It was backwards. It’s all right. I got it. I think I got it. We’re on a different lift now because we don’t want to pedal up that savage little hill. Got hair everywhere. But it kind of looks like it’s about to start absolutely bucketing down. Uh we’ve done five laps already. Um and we’re going to go up for a content lap. This lift is so slow. This is literally leg. Yeah, it’s leg, isn’t it? It might almost be slower. Oh well, we had to hang out. We don’t know where Remy is. We’ve lost him again. But this is way better than pedling up the hill. And like you get lift from where you park in the bike shop up to here and then you get to do some sick jumps down and then you get the big lift up to um I forgot the track’s name but it’s the one that comes like down this side. It’s really sick. Right, I’m back on the camera. Got all my stuff and we’re going to chug a bike park. I think that’s how you say it. My shoes are going. Got my shoes. Got my charging pack. Got my the most important thing of the day. Got my stuff. Got this. It’s actually my birthday today. Turning 21. And um got his new shoes on. He’s got new boot goofing. We’re going to go get some fresh buns and baguettes from the store. And then we’re going to go shred the bike park. We’re a bit late today. It’s already like 11:00, but um she’ll be I’m eating a pistachio donut for breakfast. I think it’s mine. We’ve got enough lift tickets. This is where we’re staying. And bike park has given us these, which is so epic. Thanks, guys. And we’re waiting for Ryan and Remy cuz we don’t know where they are. And then we’re going to go ride. Remy’s going for the full tuck. Or should I say Mr. Kerr. What was that? Burn. Joe or someone else. Sebastian Boon. Like Yeah. Let’s do this. Up one. [Applause] Heat. Heat. Dude, they made it so much better than last year. I forgot it was quite gnarly with like the rocks and stuff at the top. They’ve made it epic. Yeah, it’s good, dude. Compared to last year, that is a lloma. by that first. Nice little [Music] Pretty proper. Yeah. [Music] Yeah. There we go. Oh, how are we Thank you, dude. That one I’ve got some kind of fun easy jump. But I might go to better jersey on. Jen, are you keen or not? Yeah, I’m a bit hot. Yeah. This way is sick. [Music] Oh, she could have gone on that one. All right, we’ve done one lap. Bernie’s yelling something back there. Um, going to do a couple more, get some lunch, and then do a couple more. But it’s pretty fun, pretty good, pretty hectic. And, uh, yeah, I’ll probably only put in like a couple laps like riding, you know, like maybe three riding laps of just the whole weekend cuz it’s the same thing over and over again. But yeah, Heat. Heat. I like [ __ ] jacket. Not going too fast. You’re going to pull it from there, dude. Good stuff. survive. Yes, dude. Oh, heat. Oh, I’ve gotten lost. Oh, I’ve gotten so lost. I need to be there. Oh, it’s fine. I’ll just go to there. Whoa. Oh. Let’s go. [Music] higher ones are good. Yeah, that’s hard work, dude. Just go get some lunch. Good. I like what I’m seeing. Yeah, dude. [Music] Sorry, dude. My hands hurt so much more going that speed. I was like, I need to stop. My hands are sore, huh? All good, dude. Are these jumps easy? Yes. Look at this line he’s looking at and then just follow me into them. Yeah, you’re doing so easy, dude. You reckon wide or this mid line then cut in? I just did mid. I think you do mid and then cut through. Yeah, that’s what I was thinking. Yeah, except just inside the rock. I don’t want to find something different. Oh, your balls are too wide. All right, J. Just follow me. You’ll hit me all easy. Just like just cruise off them. The first little step down. It’s not kicking, but just cruise with me and you’ll do it easy. Are they? Yeah. Okay. They’re super easy. Go my feet. You got them easy. Make panic pedals. Yeah. Yeah. You can go quicker than that. Oh my god. Right, it is Sunday. It’s the next day. Um, yesterday did not go at all to plan. Um, if you’ve watched Birdie’s video, if it’s up before this, you would probably know. But yeah, we’ve done five really good laps. I’m 100% okay, just FYI. Um, we’ve done five really good laps. We’ve been having so much fun. We went up for a content lap at the end. I went down the track to film film the boys come down and yeah, but Bernie came down had a huge crash. I was kind of like, is he okay? He’s in like the bushes. like move his bike. Oh my god, what’s happening? Ryan’s coming down. Um like just you know survival mode. I was like am I off the track? Is Bernie off the track? Is his bike off the track? Ryan will go like I can’t stop him. He’s going too fast. He’ll just go through and then we’ll go from there kind of thing. And then next thing I know Ryan is flying through the air. The exact same crash as what Bernie had. Like you honestly couldn’t ride it. It was insane. it like it was just it felt like honestly all of us I think we were in a movie. It was just kind of like what is happening? But um yeah, Ryan is unfortunately still in the hospital. He’s got a pretty gnarly cut face. Um I think he fractured like his eye socket, concussion, but he’s all good apart from that. No broken arms, legs, back, neck. They’re all fine. Bernie’s unfortunately got a broken wrist in one hand and a broken handbone in the other. we think right now, like they said yesterday, but potentially maybe a broken wrist in the same as his hand. So, he’s in two casts, but he’s okay aside from that. Um, so unfortunately, neither of them will be racing for for the foreseeable future. So, wasn’t that just a great birthday present from the two of them. Um, oh, but yeah, Rey’s riding now and I’ve just like I’m going to quit. Well, I’m ahead. I’m all good. I’m just going to Yep. I want to start this season good and given what happened yesterday, I’m not going to take my chances today. So, but yeah, it was just so unlucky. They Yeah, just I think both slid on like a baby head that was in the track and absolutely nothing they could do. It was no one’s fault. It was just such a freak accident. But like yeah, it was insane. So, um yeah, that’s how yesterday went. And now we’re just gonna hang out and then go get some lunch and um try to keep spirits high because as you can imagine just smash the cubes. I would have 10 a day easy. 10 cucumbers a day for sure. No you wouldn’t. Yeah. Remog the cucumber here. He’s keeping us happy these days. But how many? He’s got a piece of bread and a cucumber. Good. Better than me, dude.
