Ryan Leech...

He doesn't dab, you know. And he'll be doing a trials demo at the Burnaby 4 Day TODAY! Tuesday December 28th. Get out to the velodrome to watch some racing and see if that famous saying really is true...



And I don't think any of us are riding BMX enough right now, but Sean Burns' latest should get the stoke going.

Burnaby 4-Day


Next week (Dec. 27-30) will be the Burnaby 4-Day track race. This is possibly the biggest race the BVC has ever hosted with several international PRO level racers coming out. Tyler Farrar (Garmin/Transitions & ranked 9th in 2010s UCI rankings):


Christian Meier (Garmin/Transitions):


Zach Bell (World Championships silver medallist):


Tara Whitten (Current Omnium & Points race World Champion):


Svein Tuft (Former Garmin/Transitions, now Team Spidertech):


...and Sarah Hammer (Two-time track world champion):



There will also be plenty of racing on an amateur level in the A, B & C categories which will be just as good to watch (just not as fast) while the PRO's are taking a break.

The house lights are being turned off and it's going to be all Euro-disco styles with a bunch of kegs kicking around. Party time at the track. Check here for party times.

I'll be there on the final two days working as a commissaire/track nazi. Call me what you will but who wouldn't want to get close to all that spandy-pants ass?

A couple BMX vids to clear the air...

Tate Roskelley's last edit was a lot to live up to, but this one's not bad. I think it's the song, though; that Dr. Dog "Heart It Races" is pretty good.



And a very Sean Burns-esque character with Jay Wilson in the new Bone Deth edit. Nick approves, and I quote: "holy shit of the year."

Next Level Unicycling

Honestly, with the number of times I burst out laughing during this video, I'd recommend keeping your coffee on the desk while you watch it. I won't leave any spoilers here, but it looks like this guy is after our boy Danny and the entire world of fixed gear freestyle.

Browser video cleanup

Yep. Once again I find that I've got way too many browswer tabs open. Instead of bookmarking these videos or Zoteroing them.. I'll just paste them here.


I liked the first half of this one, specifically the wheel building, gets pretty meh once the bike is runnign though:
