Lost In The Baltics

August 23, 2014

BMX trips are funny because no matter how much they could fall apart, they always seem to end up being that much better. Jason Phelan and Isaac Lesser spent some time in the Baltics with Andres Lainevool and Talis Viirpalu where they ended up having an amazing trip despite it not going exactly to plan! Take a look!

“Jason Phelan,Isaac Lesser,Andres Lainevool and Talis Viirpalu get there bikes and travel around the baltics, hitchhiking taking buses and trains. They encounter madness wherever they go and they have a hell of a good time. #lostinthebaltics”

Rii Projects – Western Canada Trip

August 23, 2014

Damn… Talk about going all out. After 4 years of constant pain and agony from health problems, Mitch Anderson was finally healthy enough to get out on the road and ride all over Canada! Check out this video he put together from the riding and good times he had off the bike. This is how it’s done!

“The compilation of a 6 week self funded road trip across western Canada to celebrate regaining health and successful management of chronic crohns colitis, which left me disabled for several years.

After 4 years bed ridden with constant medical care I started working towards becoming physically active again. after 2 years of hard work my health started to regain. I sold everything I could, jumped in my favorite car (a beautiful 1986 Porsche 911, modified by Rii Projects) grabbed my bmx and took off west! With no plan but to ride my bike, meet old and new friends, and experience as much as possible. It was a great success and I hope to find funding to head out east before the winter!”

Haro – Matthias Dandois “Lost Footage”

August 23, 2014

It’s crazy how much amazing footage might just never be seen! Here’s some footage Haro dropped of Matthias Dandois bringing his flatland skills to street spots and parks all over Southern California last year. This might be “old” footage, but it’s damn good!

“Videographer Christian Rigal hooked us up with this gem. Matthias footage is always prime so this is better delivered late than never.
Chistian had this to say, “This edit got lost on my hard drives, it was filmed back in March last year (2013) when Matthias stayed at the MARKIT house. I had a broken foot the whole time.”
Look for some some rad collab projects with Matthias soon.”
