God on Gas

This is a Andrew Smith's new mat. A super-free-breather negative rocker RB-JMC. That's right... Another one.

Andrew has been a mat rider for a long time having scored a couple of Neumatics from Dale around 12 years ago. Andrew cares for his mats and they will last a really long time with love but everything is finite and Andrew has been trying to score a G-Mat for a while.

Andrew is primarily a mat rider and was keen to get a sensitive ride. So a 70/70 highly vented mat is perfect for him. The conversation over which model was a brief one... "I want the model that Buck and Jamie are raving about".

Roger that.

(Just a quick note on models. This is the base design. I take careful measurements from riders to tailor their mat).

We talked about what Andrew wanted to call his mat. Andrew is a football fan (soccer for the philistines) and supports Tottenham Hotspur. His favourite all time player, Glenn Hoddle, was known to the fans as God on Grass so the name presented itself... GOD ON GAS.

G.O.G. is heading to San Diego and should be there soon. It'll be good to hear how Andrew gets on.

Cheers

PS as a Liverpool fan I should have charged Andrew more for this!
