Nowear – Bring Your Own Bike 2015 – Nowear Compound

June 23, 2015

Nowear just released the video from the 2nd stop of the 2015 “Bring Your Own Bike” Series! This stop was at the Nowear compound out in Nebraska and it looks like they had a HUGE turnout for it. Check out a ton of highlights in this video. This is what a proper BMX contest looks like!

“Round 2 of the 2015 Nowear Bring Your Own Bike Contest series was amazing. Colorado showed up in full effect with Nic Bonner, Dan Nielsen, Preston Solis and more. Little Jacob Thiem tore the place apart, at only 14 this kids is doing a great job hanging in the pro class. Anthony Parilli from Mudslingers did some of the craziest transfers ever he never seizes to amaze me. The over 30 was off the hook as always and the class keeps growing and growing. The Compound is always open to any bmxers interested in riding anytime just hit us up. follow us on Instagram Nowearbmx or on Facebook Nowear Extreme Rider Apparel”

Nowear – Handlebar Subrail

May 26, 2015

How badass is this? Nowear sent over a photo of the custom sub rail they built for the next round of the 2015 Bring Your Own Bike Contest Series. We’re not sure on the actual dimensions of this beast, but based off the photo of it loaded on the flat bed truck it has to be pretty huge. Can’t wait to see some footage of people riding this!

2015! Let’s do this again! Nowear Extreme Rider Apparel is proud to present it’s 2nd year of the BYOB contest series. The last several years some friends and I have been reminiscing about the good old days. Hoffman B.S. comps and various other mid West Jams like the P.I.T., Rampage and Scrap were legendary and we were all fortunate enough to have attended. Those were some of the best times in BMX for many! We wanted to give some of those same great memories and feelings to today’s riders here in the Midwest. After our first year all I can say is Mission accomplished!

Thanks to so many great companies and riders the BYOB is a big success! Huge props to Rick and Jess at Standard, Sam at Tree, Brian at XS, Nate and Chris from PHV, Tony and Eric with Mudslingers. These guys are what helped us make 2014 BYOB happen!

BMX at it’s Grass Roots Baby! These jams are super fun, friendly and all located at backyard ramps. Camping is available at each event at no cost. Anyone needing rides or carpools please feel free to post on these event pages, or message me directly as I may be able to help organize some rides.
