Happy Days

Three happy kids. New Sunday! complete, New parts on the WTP, and New FIT BF1. Stoked.

Rippin it!

Pint sized pump track I just built at my kids elementary school. Wicked fun!

RYE Overnighter

Another trip in the books. Good times as usual went down at Rye this weekend. I smashed my hand with a hammer, Norm seperated his shoulder on a backflip, Jamie sprained his ankle, Adam split his chin open on his bars... But no one died! :) Everyone shredded. Dylan even dropped in on the ginourmous Half Pipe! crazy. The weather was amazing so when the AM rolled around, they opened up the walls and let the sunshine in. Most everyone got along. ( Unless you fell asleep on the bus on the way home. Then you may have been written on, easy cheesed, or if your mouth was wide open, you may have received some Ramon Noodles. Check my FB page for that one! ) All in all, a great time was had. Thank you everyone that came along. Tell me when you want the next one! This time I will NOT be fixing headsets that need to be hammered out! hahaha

Woah. RYE in 2 days!!!

Holy cow, the bus leaves in 51 hours! You have your waivers signed, right?! Under 18 and have never been to Rye, you have to download the waiver and get it signed by a Public Notary with your parent/s/legal guardian's signature/initials. If you dont, they WILL NOT let your ride. If you are 18 and over, or have been to RYE before, you are all set.

You must have or rent a helmet. You can buy food there, or bring a small cooler.

Your bike must have the front wheel off, pedals off, and handlebars folded down. Its the ONLY way to get 55 or so bikes on a bus. PLEASE do this before you get here. Thanks

Bus leaves the shop at 6pm sharp. See you then!

Rainy Day Good Times

FBM made an unannounced visit yesterday. ( Not true, John Lee informed me 60 minutes in advance :) Rain was coming down, the shop was slow, and before you knew it, Eric Hennessey was "hoping" 53" over the bar with a severed head watching from below. Always psyched to see Crandall and crew! Pizzas were demolished, beverages were consummed. Even got to sample the new FBM video coming out soon.! Nice seeing Jay from The Least Most as well. Stop by anytime, guys. Always welcome. J

SUNDAY!

Aaron Ross

Alex Magallan, Jake Seeley, Scot Draper

Well, the Sunday! crew just left. They are headed west, for a stop at The Garden tomorrow. If you are in the Pittsfield area, stop by.

The day started with Elivin taking home the award for " highest hop with a 40lb. bike". I think he got 36 with it!! damn. It was followed by a train of 50 or so bikes hopping the bar. I dont even know who the hell won or what the highest hop was. There had to be 100 people here. I could barely get outside to see many of the festivities. Blood was shed, wrists were bent, the Ding Dong Cart came by ( I though u had to be friendly to drive one of those?), the Police arrived ( some neighbors can be sooo lame), there was a giant game of footdown, Director forks were given away, autographs were signed ( got Jim C. to sign my SPAM shirt), a kid even bought a new SUNDAY! Gary Young Complete bike and got it signed by Jim Cielencki.
The day ended with EVERYONE at the Northampton Bowl. ( Sorry to barge in skaters, thanks for dealing with the 60 or so bikes) It was great to see Bobby Parker rip around the bowl and Jim C. airing out over the hip. Ross was hurt, so was Seeley and Magallan. But it was still great seeing all that BMX. Good times for sure. Maybe next time, some dirt behind my house, Scot ??? Mother nature can be a bitch. :)

Thanks again Bobby and Jim for making this happen. It really meant a lot to me. Thanks to everyone at SUNDAY! for hanging out and talking with the kids. Showing them how cool their favorite pros can be. Im pretty psyched Aaron and Scot like football as much as they do. Thanks Jake, for getting the kids stoked on the shop and organizing the footdown comp. You didnt have to do that. I appreciated it. Thanks to everyone who chilled at the shop afterwards. That was the best ride down the bikepath ever! And all I did was carve, skid outs, and jump the grass bank! And thankyou to everyone who showed up. I can not do it without each and everyone of you. You supporting your Local BMX Shop, means everything to me. Thank you again, and I hope to see you soon.

Go ride something. There are tires to be shredded:)
