Yeah, Derek!

Dirt Diggler is a wicked-awesome trail in and of itself. The Dirt Diggler Fall Classic is an excellent race/plummet. I urge shredders to consider this event next year; it is totally deluxe. Halfway through this thing I thought my heart was going to burst.

i always feel like puking at the end...but then someone hands me a beer

There's nothing quite like a cold beer after a tasty trail and a wicked skid. Booyah!

Just out of curiosity. What is it that you find so funny?

charleyboy14 (Jan 4, 2012 at 10:04)

ahh just there was a taxi driver around my area called derek bird, he went a bit psycho and killed 15 people including himself. then i was linked to this image with the caption "i bet youd love to shoot with him" Rather amusing

birdman74 (Jan 4, 2012 at 16:52)

That is pretty amusing. Trust me there is no relation. I heard about this one constantly for a while when it happened. Lol

notthatfast (Jan 11, 2012 at 16:02)

hah, that's pretty funny, i remember that (the incident itself wasn't so funny...), and i think it's derek byrd, but i'm being pedantic now
