It has been a little while since a new episode of Unclicked Podcast has dropped, but it’s back with a banger.

This is a super good listen, so get on that play button and take it all in!

“Wellll, that was one hell of a break. Life happens and motivations come and go, but both Dennis and Unclicked are officially back. It seemed logical that the very first guest would be Dennis Enarson himself, so he could explain why he quit, why he’s un-quitting, and everything in between. I wouldn’t consider this a full podcast with Dennis, but I’m sure you’ll learn something about the man.

Buy House, Drain Pool, Ride Bikes

July 12, 2022

When it comes to having a backyard pool to ride, it’s not all too often you get the opportunity to have one in your own backyard. Ryan Fudger‘s pool in his backyard needed to ton of work done to it, so before that got taken care of he invited a bunch of riders over to catch some sessions! You know when guys like Corey Martinez, Gary Young, Hobie Doan, Ratty Matty and more drop in, you know things get loose! Check out what went down, along with the story behind it from Ryan!

“So yeah, we upgraded our house late last year and it had a pool that was, by pool standards, wrecked. Cracks all over the place, filter pick ups that will eat a kid (if they worked), and pipping clogged with 20 years of who-knows-what. Sooooo, we had to get it refinished and what sort of lifer would I be if I didn’t get some sessions in? A bad one.” – Our BMX
