Spot Check – Adrenaline Alley Corby Skatepark

November 18, 2015

Ride UK released this new BMX video giving us a look at Adrenaline Alley Skatepark in Corby with riding from a few local pros that call the place home. Excellent riding, clean film work and it’ll definitely make you wish you lived closer to that place. We didn’t know there are trails or an outdoor plaza at that place either… I guess we don’t see much footage from those places pop up. Either way, this kicks ass, so hit play and enjoy!

Man Gets Full Facial Transplant From BMX Rider

November 17, 2015

Now, going into this you’re probably wondering why we’re posting this. It’s actually a BMX related story. Back in July, BMX lost David Rodebaugh, a BMX rider from Ohio who lived in New York and was in an accident that left him brain-dead. After his family made the final call, they donated his face to a firefighter named Patrick Hardison who was severely burned years before during a call to a burning home. The New York Times released this video and the incredible story about the transplant and how it all came to be. It’s pretty crazy to see what medical advances have come to. Take a look if this sort of thing interests you. The full story can be viewed right here.
