Threads Vol. 4

March 28, 2014

It’s that time of the week again where we head over to Bikeguide and take a look at what the guys are getting into over there! This week we’ve picked out two fresh threads that are getting pretty interesting and are worth checking out!

The CULT X VANS TYRE thread has everyone talking about their thoughts on the soon to be released tire that Cult is working on with Vans and their legendary waffle pattern. Definitely interesting to see what everyones thoughts are!


Thread: CULT X VANS TYRE

Next up we have a thread that I never expected to stumble upon… Storm Trooper BMX. The photo is pretty self-explanatory, but believe it or not there are a bunch more photos surfacing like this that are pretty hilarious. If you’re into Star Wars or just looking for a laugh. Take a look at this thread because it can only get weirder from here on.


Thread: STORM TROOPER BMX

That wraps up this weeks round of Threads! Head over to Bikeguide.org and check out all of the threads on the board! I can guarantee you will find something that catches your eye!

Insight: Stolen – 2014 Heist

March 26, 2014

Complete bikes are getting more and more dialed with each year and there are options for just about everyone out there. Stolen have a huge range of complete bikes from the entry level all the way up to the higher end bikes that are loaded with aftermarket parts. The 2014 Heist is an example of a bike that spec’d for quality without breaking the bank. We figured it would be cool to take a closer look at just what this bike is all about. Let’s take a peek.

Threads Vol. 3

March 21, 2014

It’s that time of the week again for us to take a look at some interesting threads that are popping up over on Bikeguide! This week, in The Bike Shop, there’s been a pretty interesting thread that will probably take a lot of you guys who have been riding for a while down memory lane. The FRAME HISTORY? has everyone talking about the history of frames they have rode over the years. Some go waaaaay back and I guarantee you will say “Ooooh! I remember that one!” a bunch of times. Definitely an interesting read and a good one to get in on!


Frame History?

The second thread is probably one that’s catching my eye again because my neighbor has been spending the last few days revving his engine on his Harley to get it ready for the season. It’s been in the upper 30’s and people are busting out their motorcycles here in Minnesota… I shit you not! The Motorcycles thread is 120 pages long and filled with every kind of motorcycle you could possibly think of. Anyone who is into motorcycles, or considering getting into them will be able to kill a lot of time paging through this one! Take a peek!


Motorcycles

That wraps up this weeks round of Threads! As always, there’s a TON of stuff to check out on Bikeguide, so go take a peek and maybe get yourself setup with a FREE account if you haven’t yet — Bikeguide.org!

Photogallery: 2014 3rd Lair Jam

March 14, 2014

This past weekend was a busy one for Minnesota. Not only was this years BV JAM over the weekend, so was the annual 3rd Lair Jam that some of the locals up in the Minneapolis / St. Paul area throw! Our friend and photographer, Ben Austin made his way to the park to check out some of the good times that went down! He ended up with a bunch of photos from the day, so we figured it would be a good time for a new photogallery!

“3rd Lair just wrapped up their annual BMX jam, presented by the Skworl crew. This winter has been a historically cold one for the Midwest, and the local scene had been hurting for a chance to get together, hang out on the bikes, and have some fun. It was great to see all of the faces from near and far make it out. The contest went off without a hitch, and ended up being a really good time. Check out a few dimly lit photos from the day, enjoy!

Hosts: Skworl, Lee Mies, Mike Gelle
MC: Kevin Robinson??
Results:
Pro: 1st – Andreas White, 2nd – Derek Strong, 3rd – Jake Demuth
Bowl Jam Supreme Champ – Justin DeWitt
Best broken forks – Chass Uthe
Footdown Survivor – no one cares” – Ben Austin
