This weeks first "last times" is with Korean rider Kwon Seongtaek, Kwon now lives in Finland with his wife, I met him at the groundtactics final, always nice to put a face to a guy I chat to a few times a week. Kwon rules, super tech riding style.Keep an eye out for an edit soon..
The last one was King of Finland 2010, a national BMX championships which I won the title. As I started rather serious pratice this year, I anticipate more from next year. Hopefully the KOG series in Japan as well.
Last time you were drunk:
Extremely rarely I get drunk though as I am gifted to have ability to digest alcohol faster than others.
Last time you rode in the rain?
I never wanted to ride in the rain before but I happened to read someone's interview from Flatmatters that flatlanders from U.K. do rolling tricks more as it's all the time wet there. I realized that there's no need to whine and hate rain when you can actually go out and ride in the rain. So yesterday I did it lil' bit but it was only for testing my new bike setup.
Last time you rode with Martti Kuoppa?
It was Ground-Tactics times.
When I came to Finland, I was so excited to meet Martti Kuoppa and expected to be riding and have some parties together. But maybe because of the fact that I always lived too far away from his place? I rarely even see him here.
Last time you got a puncture?
I rarely get any flat tires. But yesterday, my brand new tire was faulty and a surface of it got ripped.
Last time you threw your bike?
Not today but my last sesh. Just to look tough.
Last time you checked flatmatters?
Today. It's a routine.

Backward whiplash today. Hopefully get used to it fast so I can do it with other tricks soon.

Last bikepart your brought?
In fact I am putting the front brakes on after being brakelss for ten years. So I got now KGB space2 fork with upside down v-brakes set, pedals, chain, seat, grips, barends, tires, and stem. Now I am expecting a new frame all the way from South Korea.

10th of September. I wanted to see Aleksi Ritsilä's new trick and it was a day for a sudden jam a day before Finnish crew's trip to Estonia for a jam. I didn't go to Estonia but I had a lil session with local riders there.
