Van Homan’s Secret Warehouse Session

April 12, 2016

Did you know Van Homan has been building up a secret warehouse in Philadelphia for sessions? We had no idea, but based off this video it looks like a ton of fun. It actually reminds us of that spot they went to in Road Fools… Berger’s ramps?… with the old building, ramps a couple floors up, low ceilings. Either way, check out this video Colin Varanyak put together from a session that he caught with Van and Brian Wizmerski caught there. I’d imagine we’ll be seeing plenty more from this place soon.

“Van invited me to a session at his private warehouse. Decided to test out my new camera. Riders in order of appearance: Van Homan, Colin Varanyak, Brian Wizmerski

GMG Trails – The Last Weekend

April 12, 2016

It’s always a bummer hearing about trails having to be plowed and put to rest. The GMG Trails are the latest to join that list, but it sounds like it was at least on much better terms than most trails are destroyed on. Above are some highlights from some of the final sessions. Below you can get some words from Andrew Bryan about the spot and why it had to go. Andrew also put the video together!

“This is a tough one to post, I don’t really know what words to say. GMG has been home for the last 4 years and we have had so many awesome sessions and good times. Unfortunately all good things do eventually come to an end and the land that we have been luckily enough to call home for 4 years is now needed for the Scott family’s growing company. We are nothing but grateful to them for letting us dig, hang out, ride, grill and drink beer every weekend and hope for nothing but the best for them and the company.
On the up side we were able to get fair warning before shutting the GMG doors and got to soak in every last lap and good moment over the past month. Last weekend was our final session and it was nothing but good times, smiles, laughs and trains with our best buds. Thanks to anyone who has helped make the memories over the past 4 years and to everyone that has picked up a shovel to lend a hand. Just some clips I took on my phone and edited together.” – Andrew Bryan

Blu Enigma Hotel – Greece BMX Trip 2016

April 12, 2016

When you think of hotels, you probably don’t think about skateparks other than “is there one near by?”, but that’s not quite the case if you’re in Andros Island, Greece. The Blu Enigma Hotel happens to have a bowl at their building during your stay. If that isn’t enough, they also have a massive snake run that’s just up the hill! Above is a video from a 10 day trip a few guys from the U.K recently took to see just what the place was all about. Based off the video, it’s safe to say they had an incredible stay.

“Filmed on a 10 day trip to Andros Island in Greece in April 2016.
