“On May 22 2011 a tornado hit Joplin Missouri and took the life of our dear friend and fellow BMX rider, 16 year old Lantz Hare. Lantz spent almost all his free time at Autumn Ramp Park riding his bike.
This video is a montage of the footage and photos I have of Lantz from his participation in Autumn Ramp Park events over the last few years. Includes clips and pics of him riding in the 2010 JoMoPro, summer Ramp Camp, a “Chaos on Wheels” BMX trip, interviews about Autumn Ramp Park and several other awesome riding clips.
It was an amazing blessing to have been a friend of Lantz, and I look forward to seeing him again!” -John Andrus

Quintin X Ludwig Van: Mike Ardelean Signature Hat
“We teamed up with our good friends over at Ludwig Van and have turned a cache of decades-old Burlington Mills (“deadstock”) selvedge denim into this new collaboration. The 6-panel cap features selvedge denim, leather embossed patch, stash pocket inside and a Mike Ardelean signature embroidery on the side, with the result being a clean and tonal snapback cap.”
You can find out more about this project on the Quintin site.
This hat will be available online on the Quintin site, Ludwig Van and Digital Gravel as well as at Proper (Long Beach, CA). Also look for a few to hit the shores of the UK, as well as Japan in the next week.

On the Horizon: Bad Timing
A few weeks ago, the Bad Timing promo video hit the internet and it caused quite a bit of a stir with the video getting embedded pretty much everywhere. The crew consisting of guys like Jay Roe, Darryl Tocco, Tony Hamlin, Geoff Slattery, Aaron Smith and Lloyd Wright to name a few are members of this rider owned and run clothing brand that has come back for its revival in 2011. I figured it would be a good time to get ahold of Jay and Darryl to find out more about this brand and what’s to come. I’m not sure, but maybe this is Bad Timing for this one…
