The bravery of these BMX riders was incredible

Was hoping to meet up with some West country blippers at the BMX rally today but failed to see anyone in the crowd of lads that looked like a blipper!

They were incredible - wave after wave of riders hit the ramps and leapt skyward, spinning their bikes 360's, turning themselves on occasions too - they were so strong and sure of themselves (and many were so good looking!) More leaps here

Spring appears to be on its way - my neighbour's dog was bitten by an adder yesterday and I found this in my allotment today looking dehydrated and hungry
