Jason Phelan – BMX Adventures: Abandoned Ghost Village
Jason Phelan taking a unique approach to the Webisode for these BMX Adventures videos. Here’s his latest from a little road trip he took to an old abandoned building in Scotland that he managed to sneak into and ride without getting caught. This place looks pretty sketchy, but it appears that the long drive was worthwhile. Also, Jason’s sub-titles for this video are hilarious, haha.
“I decided to go on a solo missing and check out an Abandoned ghost village and ride some rails on the Rest and be thankful for another BMX Adventure.
I never done anything like this and it was an amazing experience travelling and exploring spots on my own.
My first spot was a hand rail at the top of the rest and be tankful at 9am in the morning. I then moved on quickly to to a bridge spot and then continued my journey to the abandoned ghost village Pollphail. It was pretty scary going through the village on my own and the flatbank spot on the roof was super sketchy and pretty unstable with a death drop beneath if it was to break. There was also no phone signal so all aspects of sketchyness were in play which I love haha.
This is what an adventure is all about. Here I bring you my second BMX Adventure ep2”

Max Gaertig at Mauritius
Watching this quick video from Max Gaertig might leave you wondering just who built this skatepark because it’s hard to imagine it was by somebody that rides or skates, haha. But, once you realize Mauritius is a small island out in the middle of the ocean near South Africa, it makes a little more sense. Watch as Max enjoys his vacation and throws down a few tricks at the park! Can’t ever go wrong with a BMX video from Max Gaertig.
“so looks the perfect vacation? When Max Gaertig was with his girlfriend Nancy to Mauritius, stood side zip Linen over canyons, Safari tours, excursions with pedalos and speedboats and (dolphin) swimming and snorkeling in the Indian Ocean several solo sessions in local concrete parking on the program. Here are a few smartphone clips, he has filmed there.” – Freedom BMX
