Post Office Table

I headed down to California on March 20th to do a bit of dirt jumping and hang out with a few old friends who still ride. I got there on Friday afternoon and threw my bike together. We headed out to a local bmx track and messed around with some gate starts and some long doubles. It was a nice mellow start to the trip. (more…)

Cruisin and Floatin

Thursday, June 26th, 2008

Since we finally have some good weather in old Washington state we are going to start up our Friday night cruiser rides.  June 27th will be the first of many Renton cruises.  Bring out any kind of bike and check Rentons sites.  We meet at the shop at 6:30-7:00 and then we usually get out about 7:30.  From there anything can happen.  Usually it is down to the lake and back with some bar hopin involved.  Bring yourself and a bike.  We will see you then.

Also since the weather is on our side this weekend a few of us will be floating the Cedar.  I am thinking around 1pm will be a good time to meet at the shop.  We will depart from there and float for a while down the rapids of the cedar.

Rainier Cup Review

Wednesday, May 21st, 2008

Last drop at SSTWell the day started off with everyone scrambling to get the 6 cases of beer, 100 hot dogs, stop watches, tape, and get everything back to the flow park.  But once we did get everything there it was one of the best times I have had at a bike event in a long time.  The race started after everyone was satisfied that they practiced enough.  The racing was pretty fun since the downhill part has been cut in down to the creek.  The last drop was the place to watch for sure.  It gave almost everyone a little kick sideways.  After two runs the times were stacked like this HERE.

Jake Hopple send bike into orbit.  Colton is amazed.Since everything was so much fun up until then why not fire up the BBQ throw on some dogs and play some Huffy Toss.  Norm and Jake were the test pilots.  Norm had a good launch but nobody expected the NASA commander Jake Hopple was in the house.  He hauled ass into the jump and sent that bike into orbit.  Just check out Coltons face in the background.  Not only is he looking at the bike but the expression is priceless.

Once again we thank all that came out and all that helped.  Thank Travis and Angie next time you see them…thats for sure.  Click Here for more pics.
