Mike Saavedra at Woodward Tahoe

November 28, 2012

Hell yeah! This is awesome.

“As fall was setting in, Deluxe pro Mike Saavedra expressed worry that the trails he built at Woodward Camp’s new Lake Tahoe location wouldn’t last much longer. Tahoe at the end of summer sounded like a perfect weekender to me, so two days later, we were packed and headed out on an 8-hour overnight drive. When we arrived, we were in luck — the trails were in good shape since Mike, his brother, and their crew built them months ago. After a good day of riding went down, we had a little extra time on our hands so we went all over Lake Tahoe — climbing on waterfalls, swimming at the beach, and even a wild night in Reno with Cesar Lopez. All in all, the trip was way too much fun and now we all can’t wait to go back when the snow is good.” Aaron Nardi / ESPN BMX

Action sports shows have been around for a long time, but it seems like they just get wilder and wilder as time goes on.

Looks like it was an awesome time.

November 28, 2012

This is pretty awesome. It’s not every day we see footage from Jamaica, so it’s good to see there’s a scene growing there. Richard “A-Wire” Lecky has a bigger dream to really put Jamaican riders in front of the world to see. Check out this video to find out more. Somebody make this happen!

“Richard “A-Wire” Lecky is a PRO BMX rider from Jamaica with dreams of competing in the X Games in 2013.
Despite being from a lower income background and having no access to skate parks or bike shops on the island, this 28 year old has overcome numerous obstacles in order to follow his dream. In 2013, he plans to be the first (and only) Jamaican to represent the small island in Freestyle BMX.
Not content with simply competing, A-Wire is already the face of a growing BMX culture in the Caribbean. With big plans to change the face of the sport, he also carries the hope of inspiring kids and other young adults to work hard and follow their dreams despite life’s obstacles.
