Our friend, Mark Sutton, over at Bike Biz tipped us off on some interesting news from our friends over at Source BMX over in Hastings, England! It looks like they’re working on making the move to a new historic location that will be revamped into their new store front and a skatepark! You can learn more all about it right here. We’re definitely excited to see what this place looks like once it’s finished up around November!
James Colella and Kings Rideshop

If there’s one thing that has been really good for BMX, it has been the shops that fully support BMX 100%. One of those shops would be Kings Rideshop out in California. This BMX only shop has been going strong for nearly a decade, and in that time it has grown and developed a scene that is really important to help keep this lifestyle of ours going strong.
Over the years, I’ve seen a lot of cool things come from Kings Rideshop and figured it would be a good time to catch up with the owner, James Collela, to find out a little bit about him and what the shop is all about! Let’s get into this to see what he had to say!
Name: James Colella
AVE BMX – Commercial
Anyone who has ever dreamed of opening their own shop (including myself) will appreciate this one. AVE BMX in Poland put together this commercial giving you a closer look at their shop. This is a hell of a setup in a tight space and it looks amazing. I’ve seen a lot from these guys over the last few years so I can only imagine this place has been huge for the scene in Poland.
“AveBmx Shop – located in Warsaw, Poland with great selection of merchandise with online shopping and world-wide shipping. Enjoy !

BMX-Shop – Sam Baskett Welcome Edit
Sam Baskett is now doing it for BMX-Shop.com. To bring the news, Sam compiled his best footage of him doing gnarly as hell gaps and roof drops that you are going to want to see. Honestly, who falls out of the 2nd story of a house and gets up right away saying “I’m alright” like nothing happened… Amazing. This is a MUST SEE for sure.
