Macneil 2011 Product Catalog

March 29, 2011

Open publication – Free publishing – More bikes

Macneil got their catalog featuring their 2011 product line up today. Here’s a few words about it from them…

“We just uploaded our 2011 catalog to the much love/hated Issuu flipbook thing for everyone to check out! We had a great time working on the catalog, especially since it was our first full catalog in a few years and we are super excited on how it turned out. We were passing them out at interbike and most of our distro’s got some, but for those of you who haven’t been able to check it out we hope you enjoy it.
The catalog features all our new frames and parts that are arriving at our distributors now (or sometime really soon) and we will be updating the Products page of the site over the next few days with all the new stuff!“

Lino Gonzalez – BMX Artifacts – Part 2

March 29, 2011

“Years ago, I can vividly remember riding flatland alongside a younger Lino Gonzalez at an Impact contest in East Providence, R.I. Close to 15 years later, Lino has matured into one of New England’s most respected street riders, but has has not forgotten his roots as an amateur flatlander in the New England scene. In part two of BMX Artifacts, Lino Gonzalez reveals his relationship with previous sponsor Torker, then divulges some insider information on the Impact scene, as well as his first video, “Ember.” Video by Joe Cookie.” – ESPN

Welcome to the Bakery

March 29, 2011

A few weeks back I had heard some bits and pieces about a new project Brian Kachinsky was working on. I didn’t know any specifics, I just knew it was happening in Chicago, and it was going to be tasty. I was almost thinking Brian was starting a hardware store that only sold Hammersaw’s, but I guess he went soft and decided to start a Bakery. The Bakery is similar to the Etnies TF park, a private ramp setup that will be bringing in pros, media and industry members for sessions. I can only begin to imagine the amount of content that will be coming from this. Above is just a quick teaser that gives you a look into the walls of something you will become more and more familiar with as time goes on.

For the time being you can follow The Bakery on Twitter @InsideTheBakery or on Facebook or just check InsideTheBakery.com for updates.
