A couple bits of Aaron related news. There’s a bike check up over at DigBMX.com and as always, you can count on it being one of the most colorful bikes in BMX. Ocean Blue and Fluorescent Pink in full effect.
His signature grip is also available in white now. If you want to treat your palms to some luxurious softness, these grips are the way to go.
If you’re looking for some white forks to match up with those white Seven KAs we posted yesterday, you’re in luck. We just got a batch of white Director Forks and more purple rain.
Here’s another @theaaronross wallpaper download. If you’d like to see it in its full glory, pick up issue #127 of Ride UK. It’s the issue with the grizz air on the cover.

Photo Description #3
The last guessing game was a bit of a curve ball with most people guessing Aaron Ross or Terry Adams. If you were to look into a crystal orb (in this case, our Twitter account would be an adequate substitute), you’ll discover they actually belong to Mr. Adam Banton. We sent him a really bright parts kit and he’s done well with them. The black makes the colors pop like crazy and his new bike is looking dope. Check it out above (photos by Jeff Hall).
If you’re interested in stalking Adam, follow him on the Twitter and le Flickr.
The read more teleporter will take you to Adam’s 2003 Odyssey video part.
His Electronical part is on the way.

Adam Banton has a new bike check over at the Ride website. The photos are embedded after the jump but you can read about the full details of his setup over at RideBMX.com.
Interbike 2009 just started today and the first feature up in our flipbook is the Purple Rain Colorway. As with all of our flipbooks, these guys are portable. Click the EMBED button to copy the HTML code you need to post it in your MySpace, blogs, profiles, websites, etc.
There’s one added feature to these flipbooks as well. In the dice, where it says ODYSSEY BMX INTERBIKE, you’ll notice two arrows (you may need to clear your browser’s cache and hit refresh). Clicking these arrows will cycle through all of the flipbooks uploaded for Interbike. There’s only 2 right now but as the day goes on, there will be more to come.
Also, check out B-Dubb’s Flickr Stream. He’s been posting up a storm.
