Leading by example. Here's more proof or a trailer. Looks like it was a blast.

Magic

I remember taking the bottom photo and thinking "Now what do I do?". For years many of TLP and I spent every ridable day at Magic. You knew if you showed up, there was always a crew there. We rode all day, lit the place with headlights at night, made fires in the cold, shoveled snow in the winter. Magic was smooth like trails but a cheese grater if you went down. This video isn't a fair representation of what Magic held, but sure does bring back come good memories. TLP Vimeo

ESPN, Vinyl, Verde | Yeagle Bio, Part I

Here's a photo Clint Reynolds took before the Catty Jam and prior to our cross quarry morning swim. Yeagle (pictured on the left & closest to the water) managed to scale the hot and crumbling slate wall, and then leaped approximately 20 feet into cool water. After which, he and others went spelunking into the deep, and dark caves for several minutes.
For further unadulterated inspiration and to learn a little more about the man, check this video out at ESPN.

VBS Meets Mat Hoffman

VBS.TV, Johnny Knoxville, and Mat Hoffman collaborated and made this nice promotional video. You can watch The Birth of Big Premiere on ESPN this coming Thursday (7/29) @ 7pm. Make a big deal out of it. Hire a band, make popcorn, get family sized packs of candy, watch it outdoors, take notes, and answer questions for family and friends after the film. This is a must watch!

Catty Woods Tshirts

Go buy a new Catty Woods t-shirt. They are awesome. All the proceeds go towards our $12,000 yearly insurance bill. Support.

Trails in Downtown Philly

Some friends of TLP have been working on a set of trails for the past year or so in Fairmount Park in downtown Philly. The place looks like it is coming along great. If you already ride trails, then you are probably stoked, and if not, here is your chance to start. Don't be scared to get your bike dirty.

Mountain Jam

Thanks to the Heathens for throwing yet another awesome jam in the mountains. Few of the TLP crew were in attendance, most notably Derek Brower who won the biggest bad ass of the day award for shutting down every line. He's going to be hopped up on Monster for the next 365. FBM also has a few photos up from the jam.

TLP Exclusive Interview | Justin Simpson

I've been sitting on this for a while, and for the sake of Friday I've decided to put up the first part of the interview I did with Justin when I was in Ohio this past winter. I'm going to put up the second part next Friday and the third the following. There is no riding in this one, but none the less it is still interesting being we were very intoxicated haha. Tune in for more next week! And also make sure to check out his PROPS BIO!

TLP Photo Feature | Ryan Scott

Ryan is an awesome dude. He's real modest about his photography and riding, but both speak for themselves. Check out his work.

Jon Vozzo & Derek Brower | Ohio Disaster Trip Edit

This was a debatable post, but fuck it. So the story behind this was once Derek and I decided to leave for a trip to Ohio in the middle of the worst blizzard that hit the east coast in years. For some reason we thought we would make it no problem. We were wrong and we got stuck in over 24 hours of dead stop traffic on the turnpike. Yeah, you heard right. Luckily we had food and an entire case of Miller High Life. So it wasn't too bad. So we got there late and stayed at our boy Justin's place and got real loose and then rode for one day super hung over. Short and sweet.

Believe Me, It's Fun | TLP Short Film

This short film was a late submission for DEFGRIP's BMX
Shorts program at the 2010 Bicycle Film Festival. BMXers were asked
after a couple of tricks what BMX is all about. Presented are their
talents, and a few thoughts on the streets of NYC. Thanks to everyone who helped out with this little project.

Justin Simpson | Props Bio

Oh Snap. Props just put up Justin Simpson's Bio. I guess now is a good time to say that I also have an hour long drunken interview with Justin that I still need to put up from this past winter. It needs some more BMX stunts before it could go up. So Justin, if you're reading this you know what I neeeeeeeed!! Anyway check out this and more over at PropBMX.tv . Live that High Life Boy!

Sammy Vital BMX Edit

This is Sammy. I rode with Sammy over the winter months at some indoor places and he is such a shredder. He recently upgraded to a regular 20 inch bike and I just rode with him last week and he seems to be getting better and better. I seriously love watching him ride and he is such a rad and nice little kid. I was so pumped when I found this video on Vital.

Snaps | Scenes from the Bicycle Film Fest

This past weekend the Bicycle Film Festival kicked off in its home city of NYC. It was the tenth anniversary for the BFF and despite not having any big sponsors, they really out did any BFF I'd previously attended. The weekend kicked off early in true New York City fashion on a Thursday night with the Joyride art gallery show. I had some photos displayed in this, so it was kind of a big deal for me. Friday kicked off the actual films at the Anthology Film Archives in the lower east side. The TLP crew was present for the late night showing of The Birth of Big Air. If you have not seen it yet, do your self a favor, Mat Hoffman is the man. Saturday brought the street party, where vendors set up booths to promote their goods and different styles of bike riding were show cased. Post Bike Shop sponsored the BMX portion, which consisted of a demo, a bunnyhop comp and the ever exciting long jump comp. Anson Whellie took the win in long jump with Jon Lynn coming in at a close second. Defending champ, Big James popped his way to a win in bunnyhop. Thrash Bike also came through big with a big box jump double and quarter pipe, which was my personal favorite to hit. The excitement of the street party carried over into the screenings of the BMX films. Most of the films where fun to watch, although a few where a tad long for my tastes. For myself and a good portion of the audience, the real highlight was Darryl Nau's, Props Day in the Life, which was preceded by a speech from Darryl that got everyone going crazy and feeling good. Sunday I got to check a film called Empire, which showcases NYC's fixed gear scene. It was beautifully shot, and was interesting to see a different side of cycling caught on film. As usual, there was some epic after parties to conclude the action each night. Lots of dancing, too much beer, and plenty of smiles is how I'm going to describe the parties, ad in bikes, movies, art, and friends and it pretty much sums up the weekend. Thanks to Brendt Barbur and friends for making me still have a smile on my face three days later.

I had my camera with me for the street party, so here's some scenes from Saturday. Enjoy.

KINK DEMO | New Rochester Park

There is a new skatepark opening in Rochester which is awesome because that place had nothing when x-dreams closed. This event should be pretty fun considering the gnarly dudes from KINK that will be there. Click the image to go bigger.

Cult LET'EM TALK DVD

Get your Cult on now. Whether you were or weren't at any of the premieres this past week you already know this show ruled. I attended the Philadelphia premiere at KFN and I must say that this is probably the best thing I've seen in a long time BMX wise. Get yours NOW at THEM or at EMPIRE. I hope you're ready to ride because you'll want to after viewing this. Dehart's part is retarded...by the way. Also, check out some questions Robbie answered about the DVD over on DEFGRIP.

BMX Jam | BFF NY Street Party

This gathering is going to have contests with prizes for Highest Bunnyhop, Individual and Team Long Jump, and Footdown.  An after party is scheduled as well after Saturday's films. Lots of people are headed into town for this as it's one of the locations for the kickoff to the 3rd FBM Gypsy Tour. Should be radical with smiles all around!

Snaps | Vids with a View

Grady hosted a fun night of BMX videos last Saturday on his roof in Little Italy, NYC. There was an awesome turnout for the premiers of Krimzen's -One More, Franchise BMX's - Web Vid #3, AM:PM's - God Hour, and a new 718 joint. Plenty of dudes, even more brews, and even a few babes made for an awesome night, with some good weather to top it all off. All of the videos were sick, shout outs to Sean and Grady for having sick sections. After the festivities on the roof ended, and the all of the yellow bellies were devoured, the party moved to the Fish, where there may or may not have been a bar stool clearing brawl. Summer is definitely off to a good start with nothing but more good times to come. Here are some photos I shot from the night. Ride on.

FBM: Past and Present

FBM posted a bunch of videos from now and back in the day. The road trip in Props issue 65 is one of my favorites.
