NEWS
Stars
for
a
day
When
a
film
company
who
we
had
helped
out
previously
gave
us
a
call
to
see
if
we
could
come
up
with
3
twentysomething
riders
&
a
fun
location,
we
were
more
than
happy
to
help.
They
were
originally
after
a
girl
rider
in
her
20's
as
well,
but
after
repeated
rebuffals
of
my
suggestion
that
I
(43yrs
&
young
at
heart)
could
swing
it,
they
decided
to
go
for
3
guys
instead.
Suicide
Dave,
Iain
&
Tony
were
at
the
top
end
&
maybe
sneaking
over
but
they
are
very
fresh
faced!
See
below.
We
took
them
up
to
'heads
roll'
and
the
filming
began.
With
most
filming
there
are
loads
of
repeated
shots,
but
it
wasn't
too
bad
this
time
&
the
filming
seemed
to
flow.
Plus
for
the
boys
it
was
like
manna
from
heaven
as
they
were
doing
what
they
love
to
do
ie.
jumping
&
riding.
The
only
glitch
in
production
apparently
was
me
running
around
with
my
instamatic
digi
camera
which
flashed
automatically
&
unfortunately
got
picked
up
on
the
filming.
But
what's
more
important
?
film
company
production
or
the
Nirvana
website,
I
know
what
my
choice
is!!
The
film
crew.
To
start
with
they
took
some
film
with
the
camera
running
along
railway
tracks
which
they
built
&
filmed
two
bikes
riding
either
side.
Then
they
headed
over
to
head's
roll
&
the
boy's
got
to
do
repeated
jumps
over
No
1,
No
2
&
No3.
The
only
dodgy
bit
being
when
suicide
was
a
bit
too
close
to
Iain
on
take
off
so
consequently
nearly
landed
on
him
&
had
to
take
avoiding
action,
but
salvaged
it
magnificently.
The
blur
is
Suicide
on
No
1
jump
Then
we
needed
something
bigger
so
we
took
them
over
to
'Kicker
conspiracy'
which
is
approx
17ft.
Iain
was
the
star
of
this
one
&
managed
to
pull
off
repeated
jumps
easily.
Then
they
kitted
Suicide
out
with
a
camera
on
his
bike,
which
we
all
assumed
would
be
a
small
headcam
type
of
thing....but
no,
it
was
huge.
Luckily
they
weren't
after
major
jumps
(maybe
because
we
mentioned
his
nickname
was
suicide)
with
it
but
some
small
jumps
&
trail
shots.
And
as
we
say
in
the
business
"That
was
a
wrap."
What
a
fun
way
to
spend
a
day.
