Colin Varanyak House Check

November 4, 2016

Have you ever wondered where your favorite pros call home? It’s not all too often we get a look at where riders live, but it’s always pretty interesting to see. Although Colin Varanyak spends a TON of time traveling, he calls Philadelphia home these days. The crew over at Animal Bikes caught up with Colin to get a little insight into where he calls home and just why he chose there out of anywhere else in the world he could. You can check it all out over on the Animal Bikes website — Colin Varanyak House Check

Here’s some news coming from the old Instagram feed. Chris Childs has decided to part ways with Merritt. No word on exactly why, but it sounds like it was Chris’ decision. We’re not sure if he has a new opportunity lined up, but we wouldn’t doubt it for a minute since he’s always crushing it and we’re sure he will have a wild part in the new Sunday Bikes “Grow Up” video!

“I would like to send my thanks out to Merritt BMX for the past few years of their time and working with me on their team. I recently made a decision to step down from riding for them. Best of luck to those guys. Here’s to the first Merritt Tazers trip I was a part of!”

Cult – Lewis Ferris In New Zealand 2016

November 4, 2016

Cult coming through with a fresh BMX video from their connect down in New Zealand, Lewis Ferris. We’re not all too familiar with Lewis, but it’s easy to see just why Cult picked this guy up. Hit play for some buttery smooth lines filled with grinds and freecoaster action. This video has a fairly laid back and chill vibe, but there’s definitely plenty of heat to take in. Enjoy!

“Check out our New Zealand homie Lewis Ferris swagging in his homeland to some lazy tunes…The first time I witnessed Lewis riding I knew he had something special, this edit proves it, simple, dialed ,stylish riding…Shouts to Matt Allpress for the filming…”

Robin Kachfi On Radio Bikes

November 4, 2016

Here’s some news for you! Radio Bikes have recruited Robin Kachfi to their line up over in Germany! If you have been checking out The Union for a while, you have most likely caught one of Robin’s videos that have popped up over the past year or two. He’s been keeping content flowing steady and he’s been doing a lot of progressing, so it’s no surprise to see this news. Expect plenty more from Robin in the near future!

“Robin hails from Mannheim, Germany, and is one of the most exciting and hard working riders emerging out of the German BMX scene right now. Robin shreds it on a bike and is always on the move, out riding with the Kunstform BMX Shop crew and filming videos for his Youtube Channel which he updates daily. We got a chance to hang with Robin a couple of times this year, and got really hyped from just watching him ride, but most importantly he just seemed like he fitted in. After speaking to the rest of the crew, it was a no-brainer to welcome him to the Radio team and have him part of what we do.

If you haven’t already make sure you subscribe to Robin’s Youtube Channel and follow his Instagram page @robinkachfibmx. With a new Radio team project about to start real soon, Robin is also filming for his welcome video, so you can expect to see much more of him in the very near future.

Welcome to the team Robin, stoked to have you here!” – Radio Bikes
