After a weekend away from internet and cell phone reception, hanging out on the sand bars of the Mississippi, I’ve finally kicked the actual hangover I was dealing with to bring you this weeks Hangover! Going through all the pages of the Daily section reminded me that there was a lot of good that came from the week. Let’s take a look back at some of the gems that stood out!

Fit – New England Shop Stops Edit
Looks like these guys had a real good time. There’s a ton of real good riding in this!
“Dan Conway, Ben Lewis, Shawn McIntosh and captain Van Homan pay a visit to the legendary Dick Maul’s Bike Shop and Local BMX on a recent visit to New England. Enjoy!” – FIT
Void X 4Down X Fit – Chad Smith Edit
Kids are always wondering how to get sponsored and I think this video of Chad Smith is a good example. Chad rides for FIT through his local shop in the U.K called Void. Void gets their FIT product through 4Down. The reason I say that this is a good example is because he’s starting at the shop, getting noticed by the distributor and ultimately the brand will take notice too. Ben Lewis rode for Fit through 4Down before being bumped up to the pro team. Gotta work your way up, kids.
Not sure why I felt the need to explain that… Check out this edit though!
Fit – Matt “Tenna” Spencer Welcome Edit
It looks like Fit have added another shredder from Australia to their team. This is goooood.
“Matt “Tenna” Spencer was added to the Australian Fit Team in early 2012, not long after taking a gnarly spill that resulted in him being air lifted to Melbourne Hospital. He was still recovering while working on this Welcome edit, but was eager to get something filmed for Fit. Word on the street is that he’s got some crazy stuff in the can for an upcoming Aussie Team vid. Tenna joins Chris Harti and Jack Elkins as the third amigo in a stacked crew of shredders doing it for us Down Under. Welcome to the Team Tenna!

Print Ad: Fit – Van Homan
Here’s a look at Fit Bike Co.‘s latest print ad featuring Van Homan and their Blade 2 fork. This can be found in the new issue of Ride BMX.
Fit – Eddie Cleveland “Fit Life”
For this weeks Throwback Thursday from Fit dropped Eddie Cleveland’s section from the “Fit Life” video that came out back in 2007. This seriously just leaves me wanting more footage of Eddie. Maybe we can get a fresh edit out of him soon. Until then, enjoy.
