new stickers in the shop
Wednesday, June 30th, 2010spending money on things with real elegance and quality craftsmanship is amazing and all and a great thing to do, but sometimes stickers just hit all the right buttons, especially when they’re free with any purchase. we’ve just re-upped on the sticker front because people seem to love them so much, including a new set of neon stickers, exclus

around the shop
Wednesday, June 30th, 2010

this deserves its own post
Tuesday, June 29th, 2010right so this is not a bmx blog, neither is it a fixed trick bike blog, or a track bike or polo blog, but i try to include elements of different cycling endeavors to give a more rounded perspective on cycling. it happens to be that some of the most productive areas of cycling in terms of documentation is the trick scene, in that there tends to be more trick videos than any other individually, and that’s why i’ve started doing ‘today’s trick roundups’ – so they don’t swamp the whole page – but sometimes an edit deserves a post in its own right, and here is one of them

Verde BMX Hawaii Trip 2010 – first out it’s got some super rad riding from Dave Thompson, my new favourite bmx bandit (though the rest of the team are equally sick) and it seems that every trick in the edit is just steez’d out, mad creative and cleaner than Barry Scott‘s kitchen. i’ve watched this edit over and over and i’m bugging out over it. give it a watch, even if you’re not mad into bmx

Tuesday, June 29th, 2010[youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2d9UdVpf0UM]
so who is this dude, like the game or summin? what a douchebag. here’s one of those videos where the guy filming gets no help from anybody and is just left stranded in the right trying to instill some sense in the thwarted and fearful general public. there are so many clear faceshots of those involved so hopefully the dude can get legal action reasonably easily. i’ma beat you up
