It’s pretty crazy how fast time can go when you’re staying busy. One of the biggest things that we’ve been trying to do with The Union lately is producing an original feature everyday of the month. Now… I’m sure a lot of you are thinking “that wouldn’t be that hard”… But when you work a real job that kicks your ass along with trying to keep up with the constant flow of BMX videos, products and parts, it can get a little hectic. Luckily, we were able to pull off another full month which has lead to opportunities to take a closer look at bikes, get to know some of your favorite riders, take a look at some of the latest BMX products, keep up with all the latest and greatest videos. There’s a good chance you missed a few of these things, so I’ve compiled all of the features into one post so you can easily get to each and every one. Take a peek!

“Over the last few months we’ve seen a bunch of videos from the TdUp crew. They always have a real good vibe and the riding is always real solid. We got talking and decided it was time they did an original for The Union and they went to work on a fresh mix edit featuring the crew for you all to check out. This video features Mike Milford, Austin Miller, Kaleb Retzer, Cody Stahl, Joe Wolfgang, Eli McCloskey, Chris Adamson, Travis Cherry, Jacob Milford and Charlie Bowers all putting in work on their local parks and street spots making for a real good watch. Kick your weekend off right with this rad new edit.
