Bummer Summer

chadh — Thu, 09 Feb 2012 21:04:12 +0000

Remember how long it took for Summer to kick in last year ? I think it was the day before Joyride at Crankworx when the sun finally came out. All in all I think summer only lasted about 4 weeks in total for 2011. Anyways here is Slideshow form the Coastal Crew and friends form the Deep Summer Photo Showdown. Enjoy !
And oh ya …… lets hope maybe pray that summer comes early this year !

Bummer Summer with the Coastal Crew

Scars tell Stories

chadh — Fri, 03 Feb 2012 19:43:00 +0000

Our very good friend Danielle Baker has tells us a story about MTB on the North Shore with Photos. Every scar tells us a story of winning or losing but mostly losing. One of my favorite quotes comes from Kelly Walters “Who needs tattoo’s when you have scars ? “.
Keep your eyes peeled for more of Danielle’s work coming in the near future. She spent some time interning at Bike magazine this year and will also be working beside Sterling Lorence and Stephen Wilde setting up lights and packing heavy gear around and learning the ropes.
Cheers DB Keep up the good work and the story telling !
To check out Danielle’s work or if you have a bike related scar and are interested in being a part of this project please go to www.daniellebaker.com or drop her an email with any questions to daniellebaker@gmail.com

Luke Fulton Winter Update

chadh — Wed, 11 Jan 2012 18:28:08 +0000

Our #1 Am rider has been busy this winter, here is a little update of what he has been up to…

“So over the last few winter months I have been putting my nose to the grindstone working fulltime, trying to save for school, sending it, digging and building new stunts in the forest sometimes at night with a headlamp even, and last but not least riding and filming all the stuff I have been working on. With some amazing help from my close friend Rupert Walker we are working on a sick web edit to showcase two different types of riding I love. I don’t want to disclose too much information about this edit but it will be dropping sometime in February so keep an eye out on Pinkbike!”

Here are a few photos that I have taken throughout the process more too come

Big Thanks !
