BIKE CAMPING!!!

I am so excited about this! We've talked about doing a bike camping trip for a while now. The ride will be relatively short, so being loaded down shouldn't make the trip take too terribly long. I've camped at this site before, and as I recall, it is pretty sizable. So, I hope a ton of people join us. We're shooting for a noontime departure, that way we can set up camp, and get started on the feast. And, I wouldn't mind going for a brief ride further into the forest after setting up camp.

Here's the Facehook event, if you're so inclined.

GHOULS NIGHT OUT//PAN AM MAYHEM

IND.FIX's first trick jam! After this, we'll get an edit together of everyone, and post it on the new IND.FIX blog. Get HYPED!!!

I've had some of this footage on my computer for a while. Usually, I don't like to make edits this long, but the tricks fit the song.

Halloween

After throwing around some grandiose ideas for the Halloween weekend, I think I'm going to stick around Indiana for the Monster Mash Alleycat in Indy. Sounds like an awesome race. And, I've never had a bad time with the Radskids crew.

A Few Fall Photos

I've got a new edit of 'ok' footage in the works. Kind of waiting on some clips from Isaiah...we'll see about that though.


There's also been talk of unifying Show Up and Radskids, and anyone else in Indiana, under the moniker IN.FX, IND.FIX, or something similar. We'll probably launch a new blog, and put collective edits and photos on it. More on this soon.

No Chain, No Problem

5 minutes into today's session, I broke my chain.
I think I had a dream about this happening last night.

SHOW UP » HANG OUT edit 2

Big ups to Dru for filming and editing again. Good work Shawn and Zach, bringin it. And, I'm hyped that Mark tricked me by moving the bar up to 18" instead of 17".

Looking forward to this week!

Thursday and Friday

The third week of the Show Up » Hang Out did not disappoint. Nine guys from Indy came down, and evidently they're going to try to make it down every week. Shit yeah!
We sessioned the bunny hop bar for a while, rode up the tree, and played some footdown. Then, half of us went to Greek's and the other half went to play polo. After Greek's we went back to that same bank as last week.
I'll try to come up with a different night spot to go to this week.

Not having my fill of them Indy boys, I drove up there on Friday. We did some chilling, and then hit up this loading dock spot, which had a burly grass bank and a grass spine; and of course, there was Mt. Dew for all (thanks Dylan).

Some good stuff went down both nights.
I really wish I had a video camera there on Friday.

Here are a ton of photos:

Red light tickets. Ugh, sorry boys.

Friday, Indy:

Raising the (adjustable) Bar

Rinzin and I fashioned an adjustable bunnyhop bar today. It goes up to 20", but I only cleared 14" today on the sidewalk. And, you'd better believe this will be at the Show Up » Hang Out tomorrow. Sounds like Zach and Cody (perhaps more?) are going to be headed down again too. Awesome!





And, Tom got a new Masi, for the miles.

The guy who owns the camera Isaiah has used, Dru, shot and edited this. Sounds like he's going to be trying to make it out every week. Sweet.
Keep your eyes peeled for some fakie hop-barspins, and barspins up curbs in there. So hyped on that. Without a doubt, I wouldn't have tried those that night had it not been for Zach, and the Indy kids.

The Past Few Days

I've been riding hard, and often. Hear are some photos of Tom and I.
