Jon Wells Archives – BMX UNION

The Mixtape Vol. 1

To say that Nick Steben has been doing some traveling is and understatement. Over the past two years he has been bouncing around all over the United States (including a cross country move from Connecticut to San Diego) and Europe with friends riding and enjoying life to the fullest! During that time, Nick has collected a lot of clips that never had a home until now. Here’s the first mixtape of footage that he pieced together featuring 6 minutes of riding from the likes of Ryan Lloyd, Sammy Shushtari, Ty Stuyvesant, Jeff Dupaul, Joshy Kew, Garret Pyskaty, Justin Luong, Adam Aloise, Kevin Riley, Justin Spears, Rob Blacharski, Morgan Wade, Wil Talamelli, Mike Brennan, Steve Morse, Cohl Wiesbrook-Peterik, Manther, Ryan Fisher, Mike Potoczny, Cohl MKE, Jeff Klugiewicz, Keith Barlow, Jeff Dowhen and Jon Wells! Enjoy!

Tyler Stephens put together this video from the annual Racine Jam that went down August 18th in Wisconsin. I spy Jeff Dowhen, John Wells, JJ Flairty getting down so that means there had to be good times that went down. Check out the video.

This Is The Spot – Friends Section

The stories about Dimitri are seriously hilarious. I wish they showed the footage of him in the Sun van and stuff. Jon Wells is one of my favorite humans in this world. There are sooo many rad people in this section.

“I missed uploading a section last week because I was in the middle of my move from Milwaukee to Portland, OR. Here is the 5th section I’m uploading from This is the Spot. This section is probably best known for Jon Wells playing with this pigeon named Dimitri that we friended on a trip to Louisville, KY.
There’s still plenty of copies so please show your support by getting a copy for only $6

Sun Ringle – In the Budget? Trip Teaser

1 Comment

Here’s a trailer for the Sun Ringle trip they took to Michigan a few weeks back. Based on this, it looks like they all threw down… Also, based on the graphics with the dice, I hope they continued the “Stop at a casino for every pee break” rule that we started on the last Sun trip. So bummed I didn’t get invited on this one, haha.

“Jeff Klugiewicz, Timmy Theus, Jj Flairty, Brad Gibbs, Trent McDaniel, Mark Potoczny, Josh Eilken and Reed Stark traveled for 5 days all over the state of Michigan resulting with a 6 minute edit dropping later this month. This is just a taste of what these guys cooked up while on the road.

Here’s a music video that Logan Reynolds put together of Dirt Dan Bogard’s band, Skinny White Lines, playing their song Montra. Definitely check this one out. I spy a few Milwaukee homies in this one too. I need to make my way out there for a few days soon.

Access Darnied 2012 Trip

Leave a Comment

Over the years, I’ve been fortunate to go on a number of road trips that have brought me thousands of miles from home. It’s one of those things in life I suggest every BMX rider does at least once in their life. Go outside of the comfort zone and experience places you never thought you would be. Things might not go to plan, but that’s why you gotta do it. There’s no way for you to know where things will go.

The past few years, I’ve had the chance to do a handful of trips with the crew from Milwaukee. The last three years I’ve made my way to meet up with them to load up in the van and head towards Toronto for the annual BMX jam. Each year, there were some unexpected moments, but I don’t think anything can top what happened this year…

Above you can find an edit from some of the riding time we were able to get in during the trip. Jeff Dowhen handled most of the filming and all of the editing with the help of myself and Jon Wells for some of the filming. We figured, a tribute to Detroit was necessary so you can find the 7 Mile Anthem for the song. After you check out that, make the jump and check out some photos and the full story…
