It’s always a good day when the globe trotting Brad Simms drops a new video! This time around it looks like Brad spent some time checking out what Ethiopia is all about. This video gives you a look at some of the footage he collected while touring the area, plus some amazing riding from some of the street spots, what appears to be an amazing skatepark they have. This even shows a few skateboarders getting down that was pretty awesome to see since it shows kids are starting to pick up on things down there. It looks like it was another amazing trip for Brad!

Sneak Peek: GT Bicycles – LP-5 Color Changing Tire
Here’s a little sneak peek we caught over the weekend that some of you might be interested to see! Not only are GT Bicycles bringing their classic logo tire back, but they’ve also got a little surprise inside as well. The LP-5 tire was made so that once the top layer of black rubber wears away, a yellow rubber is exposed. So, in short, over time as you ride, the tire will change colors where the most wear is occurring. That could be from rolling, grinding, skidding or whatever.
What do you think? Would you run that? What color combo would you want?

Scotty Cranmer – BMX Obstacle Course
Scotty Cranmer keeping things interesting once again! He just dropped this new video from a BMX Obstacle Course the crew tried to get done that was nothing short of a challenge. Hit play to see who made it through this!
“We made a pretty insane obstacle course behind my bike shop that involved everything from pallets, kiddie pools, car tires, a random tweaker on a curb, and 14 rolls of duct tape! The outcome was amazing! We all gave it our best shot, took some crashes but in the end only one person could be the champion! The scariest part of the course was the final jump that involved a jump over a concrete wall and a chain link using nothing but a couple scrap pieces of wood! Such an epic day and I can’t wait until we do part 2!”
