Just saw your post Steve, sucks to be stuck in hospital for so long buddy. I was inspired by Lee posting all the skate videos on your wall so i thought i'd do a few more for you. Hope you enjoy the selection and it does a little to make your time laid up in hospital a bit easier.

Proposed route....there are plenty of opportunities to use cycle paths and smaller parallel roads. The cycle path over the Severn Bridge being the main one....never done it so not sure how we will approach it or where we come out after the bridge.

Does Grosso know the history of Skrewdriver? Is it possible Grosso doesn't know what became of Skrewdriver and it's odious reincarnation at the hands of the only remaining founding member, until September 1993 that is? Skrewdriver were a punk band in 1976, they had a Peel session in 1977, jonozero1http://www.blogger.com/profile/18311562713062485552noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26837629.post-53162390028892369512011-02-16T22:30:00.001Z2011-02-16T22:30:24.725ZMore Skate Videos >>
