Chris Doyle Hospitalized

April 9, 2018

During a Kink Road Trip in New Mexico, Chris Doyle collapsed and was hospitalized…

Last week Chris Doyle was rushed to the hospital after collapsing during a Kink BMX trip in New Mexico. The exact cause hasn’t been announced, but they did say that it wasn’t BMX related. The good news is he is doing well and stable, so it’s likely we’ll see him up and moving in the near future once again. We’ll keep you posted when more details are announced. Until then, get a statement from Kink below…

“On Thursday, April 5th Chris Doyle was hospitalized, after suffering a serious non-BMX related medical emergency in Albuquerque, New Mexico. The situation was life threatening, and Chris was treated almost immediately. He is now doing extremely well, and stable. Things are looking very positive, and he is proving to be stronger and more badass than we could have imagined. With respect to Chris and his family; details and further information will come at a different moment. Thank you for the support for Chris, and keep the positive vibes flowing his way! @chris_doyle22 #kinkbmx #bmx#thelegendgrows”

The guys decided to see who could make it through The Wheel Mill pump track the fastest!

If you caught yesterdays video that Scotty Cranmer uploaded from a session the guys got in at The Wheel Mill, then you knew the guys were going to have a time trial on the pump track to see who is the fastest. Check out the video to see if anyone could beat Chris Doyle‘s time.

“At The Wheel Mill bike park we decided to have a race around the pump track while using the laser timing system! We met up with some of the local BMX riders including my old friend and fellow professional BMX rider Chris Doyle! Each rider had one chance to get there fastest lap around the track and it came down to the wire to decide the winner! Only one rider became the pump track race champion!” – Scotty Cranmer

Fit Bike Co. – 12 Days of Aitken: Day 7 – Sentenced To Life

December 20, 2017

The 12 Days of Aitken continues. This time around we get a look at Mike’s “Sentenced To Life” part…

This time around Chris Doyle, Kris Bennett, Matt Brian Foster and Van Homan all sit down to watch Mike Aitken‘s section from the “Sentenced To Life” DVD. None of these guys had seen the part prior to watching it for this, so getting their reaction is pretty amazing. Hit play and enjoy… You know Mike crushes it!

“Day 7 in our ‘Twelve days of Aitken,’ which is a retrospective look at Mike Aitken’s BMX career as seen through the eyes of some of those who know him best via a selection of his hugely influential video parts, hones in on an unconventional pairing of Mikey and “Sentenced to Life.”

At this point, everyone was a fan of Aitken, including Dave Mirra (R.I.P.), who was heading up a video called “Sentenced to Life” filmed by Brian Purdy. Commentators Doyle and Bennett dish out some industry knowledge related to MirraCo and the quest for Mikey to leave FIT and join the team during the time the video was filmed, and his decision to stay loyal to FIT over a larger payout. BF and Van also point out that this video was filmed primarily on trips, so you know all those outrageous park clips were most likely from the first day of him riding there. And in typical Aitken fashion, all varieties of terrain are casually annihilated. That last concrete park line from start to finish is seriously incredible. -RD

Fit Bike Co. – 12 Days of Aitken: Day 6 – “Wide Awake Nightmare”

December 19, 2017

Chris Doyle and Kris Bennett sit down to talk about Mike Aitken’s Square One “Wide Awake Nightmare” video part for the Fit Bike Co. “12 Days of Aitken” series…

It’s time for Chris Doyle and Kris Bennett to sit down and watch Mike Aitken‘s part from the Square One “Wide Awake Nightmare” video. This is one hell of a part with Mike’s serious ability to ride anything and everything really showing through. Hit play and take it all in!

“Day 6 in our ‘Twelve days of Aitken,’ which is a retrospective look at Mike Aitken’s BMX career as seen through the eyes of some of those who know him best via a selection of his hugely influential video parts, reaches the halfway mark, and what better section to reminisce about than Mikey’s part in the Square One’s critically acclaimed “Wide Awake Nightmare?”

This was arguably the tipping point for Mike’s riding, where he had elevated his style to one that was heavily imitated (even the girl pants), but never duplicated. Those rubber-leg inverts, the effortless flow, that flawless swag oozing out of every clip. Mike demonstrated here the pinnacle of what can be defined as the all-around rider of the new millennium. Square One teammate Chris Doyle, and filmer/ editor/ producer of “Wide Awake Nightmare” Kris Bennett provide some insightful commentary on what it was like watching the Mikey show from a front-row seat on a regular basis. AC/DC’s “It’s a Long Way to the Top” was pretty fitting for his part- The Mike Aitken takeover of BMX had been realized. -RD
