Leave a Comment

The other day a video surfaced online giving us the first look at Fingers Crossed, a new suspension BMX bike project that Ruben Alcantara, Garrett Byrnes and a few others have been working on. The video got a lot of attention, and there were A LOT of questions that came up from how are these bikes being made, will they go into production, what is the point of the bikes and more. The crew at Ride UK caught up with Ruben for an interview where he discusses all of those things in better detail, answering pretty much all questions we’ve seen pop up.

Leave a Comment

Ride UK coming through with another round of Magic Number. This time around they sat Ryan Nyquist down to find out what his 3 tricks he would do, 3 spots to ride and 3 riders to ride with for the rest of his life if that’s all he could do. This has a bunch of classic riding clips from Ryan spanning from 1998 all the way up to some more recent clips. Ryan’s answers are great and a few of the answers were unexpected, so hit play and take it all in!

“If you had to pick just 3 tricks you could do, 3 spots you could ride, and 3 riders you could ride with, what would you choose?

In MAGIC NUMBER, that’s what we want to know. After kicking off the series with Dennis Enarson and Jordan Godwin, we continue with the living legend, Ryan Nyquist.

What do you think of his answers?” – Ride UK
