“With the help of our favorite US distributor QBP, we took Odyssey’s top ramp riders – Tom Dugan, Gary Young, Justin Spriet, Broc Raiford, and Preston Okert – to two of the best indoor parks in the country, the Wheel Mill and Ray’s. Naturally, with these guys ripping those parks, we came back with a killer video. Enjoy!”

“The day of the Uncovered semi pro BMX competition here at the Wheel Mill Skatepark! So many amazing riders are here to compete against each other and push the limits of BMX bike riding as far as possible! There were so many riders doing some amazing tricks but one rider named Mad Mike stood out in particular to me, He goes by the name of Mad Mike and he is one of the most hardcore powerful BMX riders I have ever seen before! He did the craziest gap to grinds that has ever been done in BMX!” – Scotty Cranmer

The guys decided to see who could make it through The Wheel Mill pump track the fastest!
If you caught yesterdays video that Scotty Cranmer uploaded from a session the guys got in at The Wheel Mill, then you knew the guys were going to have a time trial on the pump track to see who is the fastest. Check out the video to see if anyone could beat Chris Doyle‘s time.
“At The Wheel Mill bike park we decided to have a race around the pump track while using the laser timing system! We met up with some of the local BMX riders including my old friend and fellow professional BMX rider Chris Doyle! Each rider had one chance to get there fastest lap around the track and it came down to the wire to decide the winner! Only one rider became the pump track race champion!” – Scotty Cranmer
