On the road…Fools!
September 3rd, 2010 by Mike HinkensDay 4 of Props Road Fools begins today and it's been a wild ride already. I have brought the shit talk and the Midwest tech so far but have faced some bad ass guys. Watch out for Chad Kerly and Dan Foley. They are most likely midwest transplants from birth.
We are still in San Francisco for a few more days and then off east a bit. For daily updates and sweet little web videos head over to propsbmx.tv
Finally, please send some love to Josh Eilken who went down super hard day 2. He may be out here in the hospital for a week or so. He is doing well but needs some chill time before flying home.

August 30th, 2010 by Jeff DCreed spent a few days at Lake Owen this summer and teamed up with Arik Elstran to film this sundaybikes edit. The curved rail to 180 and manual thru the wave to 180 are absurd.

Battle at the Domes: 2010
August 24th, 2010 by Mike Hinkens
With little to no preparation and no real plans, the Battle at the Domes went down in true BMX fashion...lots of riders, some riding, a bit of shit talking, and a bunch of fun. Kids from middle of nowhere Wisconsin and northern Illinois showed up to shred some street and watch kids get wrecked.
BMX Dan with a whip off a table (he never got both feet on, but was damn close)
Though there was no official contest, the honor of being the one who shredded the hardest was to be bestowed on some lucky rider.
Dylan from Appleton killed it all day and proved to be the shredder of the day. He walked away with a limited edition hand made Battle at the Domes tank top!
And to really make it a Midwest jam, many legends and myths were on hand and some even rode...
Jessie Hapka!!!!!
