Wow its been a long time since I have posted here.

 

In Calgary we get these crazy weather swings called Chinook's. the temperature can swing from -20 to +10 in a couple hours. There is a long one going now. Its been a week of warm weather. So today I got one the bike and went out for a ride. Felt awesome!!.  Although in a couple days it'll be winter again. Oh well it'll be summer soon enough.

 

Next thing. having a little trouble with our website. Everything works, pictures, store ect.. just can't update our home page (working on it) But I am sure we'll be back in order soon enough.

 

Just got home from the shop, here is a pick from the latest frame build. A custom 24" specific street/park frame for a local Calgary rider. This is only the rear triangle. I'll start putting the front on later this week. I like to see all the welds, and burn marks. So this frame will only get a clear coat to protect it from rusting. RAW finish is my favorite.

 

 

Well time to go pack up. snowboarding tomorrow!

   So I have been out riding the Millennium Skate park quite a bit, most of the time on an UBW ST. But I have been playing around on a BMX as well, and must say I really like it! Its almost embarrassing to say but I have never really ridden the park on one until a few weeks ago. I have been more of a trail and DH guy for 12 years or so, I'll never stop doing that. At least as long as I can walk. But the BMX is handy easy to pop out of the truck and take a quick run through the park on my way home from work.

    Just one more reason why I love riding bikes!

 

  On another note, just got a fresh load of 4130 in. So we are starting a run of 2008 frames. We still have a few 2007's left. Check our site for awesome deals on BMX, ST and RONIN frames. 

 

Cheers!

Just playing on a UBW BMX at the park in Calgary. Had fun, too bad the camera battery did not last as long as we did. This was all the video i got. Oh well, guess we'll have to go back and ride again!

 

 

 

 

WOW its been a while since I have updated this. lots going on. This post below is copied over from my website.


Well another month slipped by, and still very few ride shots, we none worth posting. The past month we have been riding all over Alberta, Fernie, Panorama, Kickinghorse, Mount 7, various spots in Banff. It’s been a great summer of riding!

    Finaly after days of rain it has dried up a bit in Canmore, so today we closed up shop early and drove up to do some shuttles! Ended up riding with Rob Stevens from Ride Guide, and the boys from Rebound are always a blast to go out with.  Trails were buff, and just a little bit taky from the past rain days. Hope to get out to Golden tomorrow but we'll see. weather is not looking so good.

    C.O.P opened this weekend in Calgary, I skipped Saturday (stupid busy) hit it up last night though. The have some kick ass stunts, the race run is great, and the tree runs are loaded with stunts. Super fun right in the heart of Calgary. It may not be the biggest hill, but lift access 10 minutes from home is awesome!!

 

    Next item, our store is all up and running perfect now. Frames, hoodies, T's, and hats. Shipping is flat rate $12 (on clothing) so stock up! And help support a young Canadian company!!

 

   If your in the Calgary area, no shipping. Just shoot me an e-mail, or pic them up at Bikes and Boards

 

Later

    First blog post!

 

Just got home from shuttle runs in Canmore, the trails are prime after a few days of good weather. Felt great to get out and do some DH. Almost have all the stuff up here, we will be adding ride photos and video as the summer progresses. Here is a pic from today, I was waiting for the guys from Rebound Cycle in Canmore, got board and took a pic of the bikes atop the mighty Subaru LOL . Such an awesome view!! no ride shots today, I was having to much fun to pull out the camera
