Pawoods dvds black friday sale starts now, for today and tomorrow dvds are only 5 dollars, so if you didnt have enough money before now you should. Saturday they go back to 10 dollars. now go and enjoy some tofurkey ...
If you dont know already the new pawoods dvds are for sale, seems like no one is buying them at all. Still trying to get a hold of anyone in Japan willing to get some, every year they get a ton of them but cant seem to get in contact with anyone. Remember it supports the trails and helps us with the costs which are ridiculous. This winter we are trying to do a lot of digging, sort some stuff out before spring so we dont have to worry about it. So come on down and help out its worth it to get it done now then relax for a bit. Quick review of Fit Life and Range of Motion dvds, Fit Life worst video Ive seen in awhile, Range of Motion first video I seen in awhile where I wanna watch all the way thru more then once.
Here is a little rant on the popularity of trails now, it's just an opinion so take it as it is. It seems like everywhere in magazines, internet, and videos trails are making a come back, which is rad. It seems that in other countries it really is a main part of riding. As for in the states here, I think it's the opposite. With bikes being sold without brakes now almost every young kid gets into riding brakeless and just strictly rides street. There is no problem in that but it almost seems like a trend and if your not doing that then why bother riding. The internet really shows that everyone is just riding brakeless and nibbling around. Half the kids don't even know what trails are anymore or how to even jump anything with tranny. Back in the 90s trails were the big thing and its what all kids started out at. Now most trail riders in the states are over 25. The problem I see happening is no young kids getting into trail riding and most trails being take care of by people who wont be riding much longer makes you wonder if in a few years down the line if trails will even exist here. Just by making videos every year you can really see how no one is interested in buying trail videos in the states and mostly the video sells in other countries. Basically in a nut shell just trying to say more kids should try to explore bike riding more and bring the fun back into trails and hopefully get more trails popping up in the states. It would be a shame to see all the trails die out because its portrayed to just ride street and not have brakes anymore. Will see what happens in the coming summers, or as some say this can all be a blessing in disguise. ride on..
Bunch of videos got sent out in the mail already. France and Australia should have their copies soon, hopefully get some copies to Japan too. Been trying to get a hold of Zen Distro but haven't heard back, so if anyone from Japan wants some copies, shoot an email. Spread the word on the videos too if you can link it up wherever... thanks. Also I haven't seen the video yet but RideBMX new video Range of Motion is out now, seen a pretty good thing on Fuel TV about it. Bunch of Catty clips in there and what not, and everyone pretty much says the trails trip was the best, are trails really that popular again more on that in a later post.
After some technical issues the pawoods 10 year anniversary DVD is here. It's been a long time in the making and all the info on the video can be found on the dvd link up top. It's important to only buy the video if your in the United States. All other countries will be getting the video soon so hold tight. A bunch of copies are already in route to England so talk to Robbo about that. Hopefully Australia, Japan, France, etc will have them soon enough. The video is only 10 dollars which includes shipping and stickers come with the dvds until the stickers run out. Any other questions just shoot an email. enjoy...
This November weather is sweet, cant beat riding trails in 60 degree weather. We been on huge raking mission trying to get rid of all the leaves. Here are a few photos...
Put the FBM bike for sale on eBay so getting bidding, it could be a good Christmas gift or something, someone needs to buy this thing. Here is the link to the bike on eBay, spread the word on this. Its pretty cold out today, but next week looks good so maybe some more trail riding will go down before it all freezes over. Wanted to congratulate Vince Smith on securing another win for Catty council president, he really helped us get the trails legit and we cant think him enough for what he did.
Remember back when we said Cutter's Bike shop hooked us up with a complete bike, well we changed some parts on it and are looking to sell it. If anyone is interested let us know its also gonna go up on ebay for auction but maybe we can work some deal out before its put on ebay. All the money we make selling the bike goes towards the trails so its worth it on both ends. Here is the link to the bike, we changed the sprocket with a Snafu 25t, put Federal 20/20 bars on it, Odyssey classic stem, and Snafu race forks. and here are a few photos
Cold weather is creeping in, its about the end of the trail season here. Get your last runs in this week I hear snow is in the forecast and below freezing temps at night.
Glen is out of control, he might of did 10 barspins thru drunk run
Somehow the jam went down yesterday and the turn out was good besides the bad weather lately. There are too many people to thank, and everyone at the woods appreciates what everyone has been doing lately too raise money and stuff. Big thanks to all the sponsors and who helped get the trails running, now into the photos.
