i found this incredibly unnecessary information along with ton's more at http://paulsadowski.com/BirthData.asp

Some guy just got arrested at my work for stealing suspension parts, and I'm just sitting here with my dick in my hand reading bmx websites. You can expect Carp to start posting fetish pictures of XBOX 360's any day now. Meanwhile here's a rad old photo of Joe Riley from back in the day, that spot fuckin' ruled

Happy Be-lated Lance Armstrong Day

I still don't think any of us have a legit photo in a magazine. The future is here, kids!

Tour of California

Lance Armstrong day went down on monday with a bunch of skimply dressed road weenies racing into SantaCruz in the pouring rain. All in all, bikes are sick, no matter what type they are. The man, the myth, the legend - Tronald Ragen could be spotted gigging out on top of a truck in front of SC high (for an honest 5 hours straight) wearing nothing but bike shorts and a scarf sipping on a handle of Longs' finest Vodka while news crews and riders shot around the course. Although the one testicled super hero wasn't spotted by my own eyes, Carplebeev claims an eye-witness encounter. HomeBoy Lance straight up got his bike jacked by some troll quoting "There is only one like it in the world therefore hard to pawn it off. Reward being offered..." All in all it was a good day of bicycles that ended in me and Andy Mac getting some troll drunk that we ran into in front of 7-11, guy lucked out.

As for the contest at Lipton: Word on the street is that the building will be the home for the night for any riders that need a place to stay. So bring your sleepingbag and enough beer to make sleeping on a cold cement floor sound like a good idea.


Here's a pretty sick video of Debo shredding back in the day, Gord.

Welcome

So it seems everyone and their mom has a website these days to speak their mind about the world, so why not me? Santa Cruz CA is considered by most people (and rightfully so) as a weirdo surf town in the trees of the central coast. But hey, surfs up faggots this is a BMX blog masterminded by a few of us lurkers - anything and everything goes, stay tuned.

First order of business: There is to be a contest (or 'jump jam' as every 26'' fucktard likes to call it) on friday Feb 27th at the Lipton factory. If you haven't been it may be worth while seeing what has been built in this nonchalant warehouse near the Marine Lab on the west-side of town.

INFO:
Start Time: 6:00 practice comp 8:00 PM Friday, February 27, 2009
Location: the old Lipton tea plant (Santa Cruz Nutrition)
2200 Delaware St.
Santa Cruz, CA 95060


"We are having a underground night time jump jam (Fund raiser for the new Depot bike park). Open class 20" and open 26" Entry fee $ 5.00 (for a little cash prize) and an additional Suggested donation of $5.00 for the bike park from riders and spectators. The Address for the old Lipton Site is 2200 Delaware St. The sign out front does not say Lipton , it says Santa Cruz Nutrition (Harmony Foods) pull in to the parking lot drive way (towards Wilder State Park), drive into the parking lot (note: there is a no trespassing sign at the entry) pull into the front half of the parking lot way and park in the first 1/4 of the parking lot. Bring your bike inside. There will be a Main door open with the light on. You have to cross a grass lawn to get to that door (and the shit is always wet, so be warned). Look for some candles lighting the way to the door."
