The Latest On Layos
by: Alex | Wednesday, May 28, 2008
What's up with Sergio? Here's the latest on Layos, in his own charmingly accented words...
After the contest in Shanghai I got to stay there for a few days, so I rode the big SMP park and did some sightseeing... which was really good.
And after that I flew home for a day—just long enough to wash my clothes—then flew to Milan, Italy to do a demo. I stayed there for three days and rode the concrete park in the city. That is one of my favorites.
I flew home for another day, washed my stuff again and flew to Melbourne, Australia for the Red Bull Dirt Pipe. I got here a few days before so I could hang out with David from Fly Bikes for a few days. And about the contest, it was really fun.
Friday and Saturday was practice all day and Sunday was the contest... really relaxed jam format and it felt like I was having a session with my friends on some trails.
Thanks dude!!!
*UPDATE: Red Bull results!

Baker Blog!

Adam checked in with a few pics... for those of you who "don't check sites to read."
The travel time is in season again. I know that bmxers don’t check sites to read so I am not going to write too much. Here are some photos. The trip started in Mexico for elevation and ended in Austin filming for the new S and M video.
Have fun out there!

Ruben's Report
by: Alex | Thursday, May 22, 2008
Ruben's back home in Austin but he put together a little blog from his latest trip...
Victoria Island, in a few words, is one of the nicest places where I been—no traffic lots of beautiful forest, beaches, rivers, lakes, waterfalls, very relaxing, awesome people, also really fun trails and parks. And I cant wait to go back to enjoy and keep looking for more nice spots and trails that I heard about while I was there...
I hope you like it.
Talk to you soon!
Hannu Update!
by: Alex | Thursday, May 22, 2008
Our man Hannu Cools dropped us a line and sent some pics from the road...
Damn, sorry I write you back so late; you might have been worried. I am not injured, but had a couple of busy but exciting weeks. I went to Montpellier in south of France for a contest called 'fise'. The contest is not really that fun (its another circus contest like they all seem to be these days), but it was really good to see all the friends again! And as my girlfriend joined me, going there was just an excuse to hang out in the sun at the beach.
After the contest we had an Eastpak dinner with my good friend Andy Zeis and the riders, which was really fun! Then the minute after, me and Birte drove out of the city to sleep on the beach! That was so good—clear sky with lots of stars, away from all the buildings, chilling sound of waves! We had a really good sleep there! When we woke up we realized we were on a nude beach, haha. Pretty handy because I forgot my swim shorts and wanted to go for a swim:)
Afterwards we picked up a lot of fruits at a local market and started driving a small road through the swampy area of south France—the "camarque", a natural area with wild horses! We continued on the small roads passing "Aix en Provence". We followed a mountain road that led us to the French grand canyon wich was amazing! Definitely go back there one day!
Then we headed home because I had to help build a set up for a demo in a Belgian festival called Groezrock.
It was fun. We had crazy good weather and Toby Forte flew over to ride with us! It was so good to see him again!
We started taking the course apart at night because I was desperate to go to our trails with Toby!
We were finished Sunday midday and Toby had his flight Tuesday evening, so we had two full days to play on MX trails. Jess (Toby's girlfriend) and Birte hung out while we went riding, and in the night we met at my place to have a BBQ!
After I dropped Jess and Toby at the airport I was so exausted! Went to bed early because I had to work the next day. On wednesday and friday i worked 27hours(!!) which was pretty nuts, but as my weekend started today already, I shouldn't complain!
Now I have to go and fix my van because on the trip a fuse caught fire, which is not really normal :)

p.s. In about four weeks we expect our little one! and Birte is doing fine!

Journeys Backyard BBQ Photos
by: Alex | Thursday, May 15, 2008
Last Saturday was our day in Dallas and it was a hot one! Lucky for those Texans, the triple digit heat and scorching sun didn't stop the etnies team from heating things up even more at the Journeys Backyard BBQ.
Lauren, Eric and Kyle all love media interviews at 7am... especially when the interview is with this guy.
Texas is Eric Fletcher's favorite state.
Kyle Leeper still likes squirrels.
The ladies love Ryan Sheckler.
While dodging Sheckler fans' panties, Morgan Wade fires out one of his trademark high and mighty flairs.
