bowl to be a trail jam
The Last People present the BFF New York Grands
June 26 4:30pm
A BMX race, New York City style.
Get back to the roots of BMX with a race through the streets of the city, battling your friends to the finish. Bump elbows for the holeshot, from the starting point along the East River at 23rd Street. Navigate your way to two undisclosed checkpoints where you will have to roast an obstacle of some kind. Then sprint your way to the finish line at the Bicycle Film Festival. Take a minute to catch your breath, and sit back and enjoy the BMX screenings.
Top 10 finishers get free entry to the screenings, and will be awarded some awesome prizes from Quintin, FBM, Sunday, Terrible One, Dig, Anthem, Act Like You Know, Franchise, Post, and some of BFF's sponsors including a pizza from Two Boots. Awards will be announced inside the theater (Anthology Film Archives) at 6:00 pm. Be ready to shred!
UPDATE : BLACKEN and Operativ added as sponsors. Winners announced by BLACKEN's Darryl Nau. Flyer updated accordingly.
Come to the woods on Sunday to help ride in the jumps, hang with the crew, and shred the gnar. Some awesome prizes will be given out from Nemy, Action Wheels, and Spoked up, as well as another really awesome secret prize. Don't miss it! After this non-stop rain spree, we all need a good session, so spread the word and bring some grub. Rain date will be Monday.
We have been heading up to Sea Cliff for some sessions at Keyko the past couple of weeks. The place is coming along great thanks to Supes, Steveo, Oscar and the rest of the dudes up there. It's hard to beat a day riding trails topped off with a Sea Cliff sunset. Enjoy these photos of the good times.
Originally from New Hampshire, now residing in the haven that we know as Austin, Texas, Clint is making his mark on the BMX subculture. He is the co-founder and creator of Credence Bikes, a company with a niche in the trail scene, making straightforward, sleek-looking, handmade frames by Reynolds himself in USA. He rolls with some of the biggest badasses around, helping progress his riding to great levels, and scoring him a standout part in one of the best BMX videos in years, Anthem II. Clint's way of living makes me think about what I am doing, and inspires me to do things my way, and live a simple happy life. Here is the man behind the wheel of the veggie-powered turtle bus, Clint Reynolds.

On Friday night, Yoda, Grady, Jon Lynn and myself drove out to PA for my thirtieth bday party at my parents. We got to hang with fam and see a bunch of friends, it was a blast. Jon had to split the next day, but Sean took his place after a bus trip to Sands and few brews while waiting for us to pick him up. We proceeded to Catty for a digging session in the woods. Lots of work got done on Fonzy, which is looking pretty dialed, but the rest of the trails all need to be clayed up. It was good to see Marky T with a shovel in hand. Flash was also working on his and Abe's monstrosity, which might be the craziest landing I've ever scene. Grady and I are heading to Austin tomorrow for a quick trip to ride and hang with the crew down there. I am stoked for that, but also can't wait to get the trails going in PA. More digging to come... please help if you can. Here are some photos from the day.
