Adam check the history of the ramp rat thread I think there's pics of chingford in it (ramp rat is damon nicholls.)
Were you at Jess D's garden halfpipe when pepi, jason lunn and myself visited would be 85 i think. not 100% but think I recognise the bike in the pic of you. (might have been nick phillips)
