Fun Spot,Derby Skatepark, Polo Grounds, Maywood

I went over to the Fun Spot in Santa Cruz. A bunch of bmxers there so i kept driving. Rode my bike over to Derby Skatepark. Kind of a pain to find and what a disappointment. I was bored before even hitting it. I left in about 2 minutes. Went back to my truck and was leaving and told my self if there is a parking spot before the Fun Spot I will stop. Last parking lot and a car left so I has to take it. It was busy because there were some waves and the weather wasn't too crappy. I rode over to the spot and watched for awhile. Probably 15 bmxers. All in girl pants, most with tatoos and most without helmets. Not very inviting. I eventually went in. Intimidated. An older guy like me on a p3 rode in and I pretty much followed a minute later. He hit the 2 box jumps and berm. I maualled over it. and then half assed it the next time. some bmxer said that was pretty good you almost got the front tire over. Oh gawd this sucks. sigh. after awhile i would try it again and again. finally i was able to do it but it wasn't much fun because there were so many bmxers and some would leave but more would come. Finally I just left.

I went over to the Polo Grounds and no one was there. I jumped the 4 pack. and even hit the big jump. It began to get windy so I left. I would have liked to stay and hit that big jump some more. There was some water after the 2nd jump so i didn't want to try it.

Left there and went to my moms and washed my truck for the first time. started my dirt bike rode it in the court and it stalled. can't get it started. damn. push it back. work on my planet x headset. then look at my dirt bike and hmm i think i have the gas off? try it again and it starts. let it idle for a bit and then rode it up the street. i do not feel comfortable yet.

went to Maywood. what a sad sight. trash everywhere and the jumps all suck. beat up and half assed built or rebuilt.

came home to elizabeths and read for a bit nad then got online.

pretty good day. ups and downs. not really down but more bored and not bored.
