Yo Dudes,
My trip to Thailand was amazing! We rode some really awesome stuff, including elephants. All of the Thai riders that we met were so hospitable, and the Thai smile really is infectious. Everywhere we went, we were met by smiling faces. It was really quite nice, with the exception of the sun dial that was shaped like a half pipe… but we were expecting to get kicked off of that thing.
Unfortunately at the end of the trip I twisted my knee. It was on this weird road gap, when I pulled up in the air, my hand slipped off the grip. In hindsight, I fell victim to the humidity.
Talk soon,
Gary

Mike Vincent and Jimmy Levan
There’s a Mike Vincent benefit ride happening next month in the LA area and rather than just post details about it, Brian Tunney decided to interview Mike for the ESPN site. In it, you can learn a little more about his accident and his background in BMX. Details about the event are below:
It’s a 27-mile ride throughout the Los Angeles area, with a raffle and t-shirts being sold afterwards. Last year, the event raised over $2200, and they’re currently seeking donations for this year’s raffle. The event goes down on April 5, 2009 at 12:30 PM. If you’re in the L.A. area, come out and enjoy the ride. And if you’re a company looking to donate prizes towards the raffle, your donations are very welcome.
If you’d like to make a contribution or need additional information on how to donate to the cause, please e-mail nicelyd(at)verizon[dot]net.
And if you’ve got a box of swag you’re looking to donate (t-shirts, bike gear, backpacks, artwork, anything), here’s the mailing address:
