SOME INFO.
Sorry for the lack of updates.
The new RIDE bmx magazine has landed in our hands and there was a cool unexpected photo of flatlander Chase Gouin doing some kind of cross-footed nose wheelie link, while working those special edition 20×1.75 Frequency G tires.
Matt Beringer scored a bike check in this issue, so be sure to check that out.
Gary Young, Danny Hickerson and Mike Aitken also have cool photos in this issue.
Adam Banton was in today building up his new Eastern Reaper frame. The Reaper is his first frame with internal headset and he is psyched. Those things are so easy to set up that i even had to help him out with it. Adam also has the sweet 2-page spread in the above mentioned issue of RIDE bmx.
Thats all for now. Have a good weekend.
Its True..
This is the new JC limited edition color. Looks like a normal Pearl Blue….
But in the dark they look like this….
Bikes are worse than Crack.
So while Jeff Z and I were riding this fine morning, a cop came upon the Public Skatepark. He rides right past 3 kids WITH CRACK and doesn’t pay them any attention. They are all nervous(because of the CRACK). They had no need to worry because he was just kicking two bike riders out of a public park. He then rode past them again while they were fumbling to hide the crack. We don’t need to hear all of your cops/parks stories, I’m sure you have worse, but I felt I needed to vent.
Thanks for listening.
