The Wheel Mill – Game of B-I-K-E

July 22, 2015

The Wheel Mill recently threw a big game of B-I-K-E pairing up a few pro riders with some of the locals! Above is a video they put together giving us a look at some of the action that went down! Looks like they had a good time with this one!

“We hosted a Game of B.I.K.E. Tournament with a twist. Our expert finalists were matched up with a pro rider and had to battle it out against other teams. On top of that, riders got to choose any room they liked for their set. Van Homan, Ryan Wert, Zak Early, Jeremy Ball and Mike Potoczny were our guest pros. Cam Girvin and Van Homan took the game.

Van Homan – At Home On The Road

June 23, 2015

Now this is what we’re talking about! Ryan Scott re-upped this video featuring Van Homan cruising street spots, skateparks, trails and more all over the place that dropped earlier this year on the Almond Footwear channel! Van cooks up some great riding and this also gives us a little look into what he gets into off his bike as well! This was too good not to repost.

“Van Homan is the all around BMX rider, and he needs little introduction. Instead of a normal welcome edit for his shoe sponsor Almond Footwear, Van decided to do what he loves best: riding, travelling and BBQ’in. Take a glimpse into how Van lives in this 6 minute video.” – Ryan Scott

East to West with Van Homan and Keith Mulligan

East to West with Van Homan by Keith Mulligan — More BMX Photos

This is pretty rad. A few weeks back Van Homan and Keith Mulligan made a trip from out East to California. They hit a ton of places along the way and saw a lot of familiar faces. Check out this slide show giving you a look at the adventure.

“For the past couple of years Van Homan has been doing a beginning-of-the-year trip to escape the brutal East Coast winter and get some riding in warmer weather and more favorable—and productive—conditions out west. Originally, Van was going to fly out to Cali for this one, but being a fan of the open road—and the liberties it allows, he scrapped the easy route plan last minute and decided to drive it. Last minute decision on my part as well—and much to the delight of Van, as he didn’t have to do the trip solo. I jumped on a red-eye to Philly, hopped in the truck with my bike, snowboard, and camera gear, and a kick-ass cross country road trip was underway.

The plan was to stop every day to hit spots, shoot photos, see friends, and keep it loose, but also keep it moving. We were graced by Mother Nature with unseasonably good weather for almost the entire trip and took advantage of it with a number of sessions at some great spots. The following photos span the week it took us to go coast-to-coast, East to West. 3,363 miles, and plenty of stoke along the way…” – Keith Mulligan
