I was just cruising the BMX internets and came across this video of Gabe Brooks doing a 49 inch bunny hop. I thought you guys should know about it. That clip led me to this web edit of him taking that talent to the real streets. Handrails, playgrounds, and soccer goals. Bunnyhop this hump day. Read the full article…

Our dear beloved Husky, he of the .47 ¢ toaster and Monster Dodge. From: Brian he’s in here somewhere http://doucheblogcycling.blogspot.com/2012/04/bark-moon-april-ffr.html. Husky goes large. Somehow, that does not surprise me. After being his roommate back in the mid-nineties as he harpooned his was across Tempe, I can’t imagine why’d he’d change his ways now.   And why Read the full article…

I was sitting at work the other day trying to think of some fun stuff to do that would have a lower impact on my body. I have been beating myself up pretty good lately and needed to take it easy for at least one weekend. That is a lot harder for me than one would think.

Watching Tom Bidon Steels bite his nails at the end of this is worth the price of admission alone. Wilfried Peeters keeps it real. I posted the vid on the DC dummmblr earlier page today. Hat tip to BIG RING RIDING.

That’s not the most the event has ever seen of course, but from last year, which I think saw about 45 riders, that’s a Read the full article…
