Stevie Churchill On Stranger

Here’s some sponsor for you! It looks like Stevie Churchill has parted ways with Federal Bikes to ride for Stranger! This isn’t a complete shock since we always did see the possibility of Stevie riding for Stranger since he’s on the Primo Pro team as well and spends time with Rich Hirsch pretty regularly.

We’ve been seeing the Stranger team getting pretty stacked as of late, so we can only imagine having Stevie on the team will only push things even further. Expect to see plenty from Stevie and Stranger in 2019!

What do you think about the news? Stoked? Bummed? Did you see it coming? Let us know in the comments below!

Stranger – Times Is Weird

Here’s a raw cut of footage Stranger put together from some time Stephan August and Diego Bravo got in while out cruising a few street spots in Los Angeles. This has a pretty laid back and chill vibe, but there’s some solid clips worth taking a look at. Take a look!
