Shawn’s House POV

Shawn has quite the backyard setup going on! Trails, pool, fully stocked beer fridge, what more could you ask for? I’ve had the pleasure of riding there a few times and it’s cool watching the yard continuously evolve. Shawn decided to strap on the GoPro to capture this casual afternoon session that included laying down some tracks on a new hit. Psyched to see the new stuff he’s built, but damn it I’m still tired of that song!

Ryan Alcock

This is just straight up ripping, Ryan Alcock is pretty damn good on a bike! It’s a pleasure to see, such well rounded bike riders are still motivated and don’t give no shits.

American Icon Shimano DX Print

Damn I'm stoked on this! I was just about to head out the door when I spotted this limited edition Shimano DX Print that American Icon is doing. A lot of kids probably have no idea what Shimano DXs are! These things were the standard as far as BMX pedals go and very well may be the most copied part in the history of BMX. GT made and exact copy of them, but even though they were an exact copy they still weren't the originals. I've heard so many stories of people driving to small town bike shops looking for NOS Shimano DXs. Hell I even did! I never had a new set of DXs but I had several sets of used ones that I managed to run for years by frankensteining the parts together into a "useable" set. I finally gave in and retired them when both of my feet blew off right before the step down in "Hamburger Hill." You can grab a copy of this print right from the American Icon Store, but I'd suggest that you do so quickly because something tells me that these are going to go fast! Spotted on FBM

Double Dirt Session With Ryan Nyquist

It’s been a while since we posted one of Ryan Nyquist’s “Getting Awesome” episodes. The last few have been lacking in the trails department, but this one makes up for hit. Ryan heads down to SoCal to meet up with people and ride Heath Pinter’s and Stephen Murray’s houses. It’s definitely pretty heavy in the trick department, but I enjoyed it!
