A few weeks ago Rampworx local and DK rider Anthony Watkinson hopped on a train and got himself down to London for a few days. The fisrt morning we were up at 5am to get to the American Embassy in time for Wocko’s final ‘Athlete VISA’ interview. After waiting outside for an hour, I decided to film a few bits to document what was going on, but within a matter of minutes two squad cars bursting with fully armed police rolled up and questioned us. No messin’! We got away with no problems… And a secured VISA for Wocko! We spent the next couple of days riding some local parks and watching England ‘play football’ at the pub. Before being up at 5am again to get to the O2 store in time for the release of the iPhone 4! The early bird catches the worm… A quick session at Farnborough before Watkinson was back on the train home, with a some dope clips under his belt, aswell as a new iPhone 4 and an Athlete VISA.’
