GT – The Art of Getting Hurt with Parker Heath

October 23, 2020

It’s pretty wild how quick things can go wrong, even with something that seems so common. Parker Heath has been on the injured list for the past 6 months due to a broken foot. This was going to destroy his whole year, but it looks like COVID cancelled all his plans, anyway. Here’s a video where Parker sits down to give you a recap of what he’s been up to from healing up to starting to get back on his bike and more. Hit play and find out what Parker’s been up to, along with a bunch of footage from before the injury for your viewing pleasure.

“Parker Heath broke his foot back in March while riding a massive ledge in Los Angeles. Only a few days later, after getting the upsetting news that he’d have a few months off the bike and miss out on a summer full of travel, contests, and filming, the world went into lockdown from the COVID pandemic. With nothing else much to do, Parker turned his attention towards taking care of himself physically and working on his artistic outlets, which include painting, ceramics, photography, and more…

GT X Simon Tabron Benefit Auction

October 2, 2020

To help Simon Tabron out after suffering a life changing heart attack followed up with a stroke, GT Bicycles have announced an auction with proceeds going to Simon’s recovery fund! They have two limited edition Gary Turner frames, bars and fork kits with a few other goodies included up for auction RIGHT HERE! The bidding starts out at $500 and obviously the higher it goes, the more can be done to help out Simon! Check out more details below. You can also donate on the GoFundMe Page if you don’t have those kinds of funds right now.

“In early September a friend of everyone here at GT was struck down with a life-changing health emergency – our good friend Simon Tabron suffered an extremely rare double-trauma, first a major heart attack and then almost immediately afterwards, a major stroke – it’s no doubt that this will affect Si and his young family’s lives forever, and they need our help.
At times like these, our community comes together and does just that. Simon is one of the good guys: a multiple world champion and X-games medallist, a showman exuding in personality, talent, and a style that just makes bike riding look like a good time. Si also spent a couple of years on the GT UK freestyle team riding in GT Air Shows during the early nineties, demoing BMX to a new crowd, before emigrating to the USA and living his BMX dream.
To help raise some much-needed funds for Si and his wife and young kids, we’ve put up for auction an exclusive GT Bicycles package: the last remaining limited-edition Gary Turner built BMX frame kits. The kit includes a made-in-the-USA 4130 Chromoly frame, forks, bars, along with a signed certificate of authenticity, GT cap, key-ring, and more – in a GT presentation box. The limited run of handmade framesets sold out in hours – and we have two available up for auction.
Help a brother out, lump some serious money on this auction, and bid big – you could win a once-in-a-lifetime GT Bicycles frame kit, AND help out a friend in need. Let’s do this.” – GT Bicycles

You can bid on both frame, fork and bar kits RIGHT HERE.

You can also donate on the GoFundMe Page!

GT – Demarcus Paul Welcome Video

July 30, 2020

Ohhhhh snap! The other day Demarcus Paul‘s new Unclicked Podcast Interview dropped where he discussed leaving Volume Bikes, and mentioned he would be announcing his new sponsor, but wouldn’t say who it was. Obviously Demarcus is the type of rider that could fit on damn near every brand, so it was hard to guess just who it would be.

Well, it was announced that the already stacked GT Bicycles team has just become more stacked, because Demarcus is now doing it for GT! Check out his welcome video up top to bring the news, along with a few photos and words about the news down below!

“DeMarcus Paul on GT? You heard right! And we couldn’t be more stoked! Getting Deemo on GT was literally, meant to be, as Product Manager Ben Ward put it, “When I first came on board with GT I made a short list of riders I wanted on the team and DeMarcus was on that list. At the time he was starting to blow up and got his first signature line by the time GT was in a good place to reach out. Not wanting to disrupt what he had going on, we decided to hold off. Low and behold 5 years later the opportunity presented itself to talk to DeMarcus and we had Jeff Z reach out. The rest is now GT history.”

Filmed over the course of a few days in San Diego and LA with Ryan Fudger and Jeff Zielinski. Edited by Zielinski.” – GT Bicycles
