This week’s column happened as organically as any. It was one of those things where I was waiting until the last minute to see what happens and luckily I recently ran into one of my good friends Mark Mulville and decided to sit him down and get him to share some facts about himself with the BMX world. We spent some time in the middle of nowhere Pennsylvania chillin, getting some coffee and putting this piece together. It’s always a good time running into old friends and in true “TTL” fashion, I had no idea what I was going to do for #76 until yesterday. It wouldn’t really feel right if I didn’t wait until the last minute to commit to a column and every time it makes me realize how hard it can be to keep up on this series week after week. On that note, Mark has been killing it lately… traveling, filming, enjoying life and sharing positive vibes along the way. Take a minute to learn about one of the best riders out there and find out a few things about Mark that I can guarantee that you didn’t already know and enjoy the first-edition of “Fact Check.”
