The Traffic Distribution team spent some time at the Bad Yard!

Here’s a fresh one from the Traffic Distribution crew getting some riding time in at The Bad Yard park over in France! Check out what the crew threw down at what looks like a super fun park to ride!

“Traffic BMX got their Wethepeople and Eclat team riders together for a session at the awesome Bad Yard skatepark in Lyon, France. Needless to say, Valentin Cotot, Thomas Benedetti, Thomas Carrot, and Antoine Faillard provided the goods. This is perfect pre-ride hype material.

“
We are proud to show you our first TRAFFIC FRANCE Team video, with all our WTP/ÉCLAT riders!

It’s also the officialization of our partnership with The Bad Yard indoor park (Lyon, France) with Éclat and Wethepeople brands.

We met with the whole TRAFFIC FRANCE team there and the riders showed up with their various style and skills to shred the park.

This indoor park and our team are so awesome, we advice you to take few minutes to watch this video, filmed and edited by Ryoma Quenot and our teammate Robin Bourhis, who was unfortunately injured at this time.

Thanks for watching!

Adam Roye sits down for an interview on the Scared of Normal podcast!

The Traction Coffee Roasters released a new episode of their Scared of Normal podcast, and this time around they’ve sat down with Adam Roye to get to know him a little better. Adam is one of those guys who spends most of their time behind the scenes, but we’re positive you have seen some of his art work either with Burn Slow, Cult or one of his other projects he’s worked on over the years. This is only over a little over an hour, but it covers a ton of ground, so get on that play button and give it a listen.

“In this episode of Scared Of Normal we sit down with Adam Roye, a forward thinking creative centered in the BMX industry & founder of @burnslowentertainmentcorp.1242 to talk about his love for BMX & design, how he got his start, the origins of CULT, a peek into how he creates, and so much more. Adam’s style is as original as it gets & his humble approach is beyond inspiring – you’re not gonna want to miss this one.” – Traction Coffee Roasters

Grindwheel BMX VS Oceanside

December 29, 2022

The Grindwheel crew loaded up for a trip to Oceanside!

Here’s a fresh one from some time the Grindwheel BMX crew spent cruising parks, ditches and street spots around the Oceanside area recently. Here’s a little over 4 minutes of real solid riding giving us a look at what they got into. It looks like this was a real good trip to us! Check it.

“What we have here is a tale of intrigue, beer and bicycles. Seven rough and rowdy men took to the southern coast of California searching for jump arounds and grindables. What they found, well, the evidence is all in the video. Prepare for a tale that will shake you to your very core and make you question the very essence of what is BMX…

Trails riders will love the “Shapes In The Woods” photo books!

Although we’re quickly wrapping up the year and a lot of chances to give a gift have already passed, there’s something any trails rider will love as a gift or just something to add to the collection! The other day James Cameron reached out to tell us about his “Shapes In The Woods” photo books documenting the trails spots and sessions going down in the woods of the U.K over the past few years. The two books have over 240 photos spanning 2021 and 2022 featuring the riders keeping their trail scenes going strong, with familiar faces, visitors from other places and local names you might not know of, along with interviews and articles based around the trails spots. There’s also zero ads to distract you or fill space, which is a nice bonus. Check out more details about both books below!
