BMX is intense

So I just saw this video on The Come Up BMX blog, and since it features our friend and neighbor Ben Hittle, I figured I would repost it.

Ben is the lad with the short hair and ear plugs, looking real punk rock. If that doesn't give it away, he is the one doing the really technically tough wall rides and clicked tables.

The top level of BMX riding is crazy these days ... all of these guys are doing some great riding.

Trek Bicycle Company squeezing workers

From Bicycle Retailer and Industry News:

Trek Furloughs 300 Employees

As BSNYC would put it "The Great Trek Bike Making Company" has decided to increase profit by squeezing its workers in Madison. The plan has workers temporarily laid off during these early spring months to increase profits. This is despite the fact that according to the same story, bikes sales are up over last year.

I hope these workers are able to make ends meet with less money in their pockets.
