Lance Armstrong X Stages Artist Project

Posted in All, Art, BMX Flatland, Culture, Events, Fashion, Life on July 17th, 2009 by Bear

The STAGES project features Lance Armstrong’s work with several of the most amazing artists/ designers of our generation. Among the few are Jose Parla, Shepard Fairey and Kaws. Amazing that the artists will lend a hand for a better cause and inspire this generation to work for something greater than themselves.

Here are some of my favorites:

Inspired Bicycles- Danny MacAskill

Posted in All, BMX Flatland, Culture, Film, Music, Sports on April 27th, 2009 by Bear

Filmed over the period of a few months in and around Edinburgh by Dave Sowerby, this video of Inspired Bicycles team rider Danny MacAskill (more info at www.dannymacaskill.com) features probably the best collection of street/street trials riding ever seen. There’s some huge riding, but also some of the most technically difficult and imaginative lines you will ever see. Without a doubt, this video pushes the envelope of what is perceived as possible on a trials bike.

Thanks to my man, DJ PREDAKON, for the link. You should peep his music, he tears it UP!!
