This looks like it will be a blast. Get there if you can! You won’t be disappointed…
“New York, NY – October 26, 2011 – Prepare to be spooked as Red Bull Trick or Treat haunts Brooklyn this weekend. On Saturday, October 29th, 34 of the most core and respected BMX riders in the country will descend on Newtown Barge Park for a street contest, complete with grindable coffin boxes, a tombstone vert wall, a curved grim reaper rail box, and a 32 foot long cross box, all custom painted by Ryan Humphrey. The rider that can cast their spell on this course and bury their opponents will go home with cash instead of candy this Halloween.
Local BMX Pro rider Edwin De La Rosa helped to put together a list of the 34 most bad to the bone riders in street including Scotty Cranmer, Brad Simms, Bruno Hoffmann, Dakota Roche, Jared Washington, Mike Brennan, Dave Belcher, Augie Simoncini, Tony Hamlin, Garret Hoogerhyde, and Dan Lacey. Full rider list is attached.
There will be treats better than candy for some lucky fans. During the contest there will be a raffle for a new Kink bike, DC gift certificates and Edwin will personally donate his bike at the end of the event to the raffle. Venture onto the OSA raffle page, if you dare. http://osanb.org/events/calendar_of_events/Trick_of_Treat/10/29/11
The event is free for all ages, and will feature beats by DJ Yamez, in partnership with The Open Space Alliance for North Brooklyn and DC Shoes, Kink, Skavenger, Animal, and Post Bikes. Costumes are encouraged for both riders and onlookers.
