Hey guys,<br />

Allow me to tell you a short background about how this picture came to be. You see,<br />

I have been dreaming of a new pair of boots for sometime now (about 5 years) <strong>and</strong><br />

when I came across this competition in my favorite bike magazine, I new my chance<br />

had come for my dreams to come true.<br />

Now, there were many factors that played a part in getting the perfect shot, I will only<br />

tell you two for if I had to tell you more my short paragraph will most likely turn into<br />

an essay, <strong>and</strong> no-one has time for that!<br />

1) My imagination led me to the idea of this photo but the problem was, I needed rain<br />

<strong>and</strong> a puddle for my ideas to come to life which I highly doubted since we are experiencing<br />

a drought in the Cape. But then, you won’t believe it, that night, it started to<br />

rain <strong>and</strong> it rained hard! Unbelievable. And the next morning, there was my puddle,<br />

just like that! (surely it’s a sign)<br />

2) My old man is really not a master with technology, in fact, he avoids it. He was my<br />

only hope in capturing this shot as no one else was around <strong>and</strong> the common selfie<br />

wouldn’t have done justice in bringing to life my plight. Incredibly, after exceeding my<br />

phones memory limit due to the hitting of the capture button multiple times, we got<br />

the shot, the last one, the perfect one on the camera roll! Just amazing.<br />

We had so much fun putting this together <strong>and</strong> I really hope you take it into serious<br />

consideration!<br />

Thanks for a great mag! Keep them coming!<br />

Yours in riding,<br />

This is my SIDI boots I ride with today. I got them from my Dad who<br />

won “King of the <strong>Dirt</strong>” on that day <strong>and</strong> he finished 2nd in is class with<br />

his new YZ465 in Swakopmund (Namibia) in December of 1979.<br />

This is whats left of my boots. My girlfriend threw them away<br />

because they where falling apart lol.<br />

Really need a new pair riding barefoot is not fun<br />
