Welcome to the DME
Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving in a well aged and functioning body wrapped in cotton wool, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of rubber, smoke and butane cannisters, hungover from a ten and a half on Woodstock bourbons, covered in grazes from cartwheeling your bike, legs over head, exhausted and jet-lagged from seeing too much of the world. Super stoked, totally worn out, with a grin that explodes from your beautiful face, your sticky uppy hair, your crinkly eyes and the love in that smile that could melt Antarctica…
yelling…
“yeah boi! that was sick!”
