- The
Gary Young Props interview is doomed. After
Walter drove from Seattle to film Gary in native San Diego, the first trick they tried to film, poor Gary broke his wrist. Mind you, we did the interview questions 1 year ago and were planning on redoing everything this year in Las Vegas at Interbike--lets shoot for 2008 guys.
-Props is finishing up production on 13 new episodes for
FUEL TV. Look for the shows to air in early 2007 and include tons of sections from Props, Road Fools and Mega Tour. Hosted by
Steve Crandall, after watching you'll have the urge to crack open a cold PBR...

Road Fools 15 will be shipping on Oct 3rd. This trip was amazing… Road Fools 15 hit the road and traveled across the Midwest including stops in Chicago, Kalamazoo, Ann Arbor, Detroit, Cincinnati, Kokomo, and Ft Wayne. Lots of street on this trip.
Amazing riding went down and it did not even rain every day--we just went to the emergency room every day. It all worked out in the end though, these guys are professionals--the ER does not stop the session. Bonus sections include: Bails, Day 0 (Scrap skatepark), Tattoos with
Catfish and
Crandall, bonus riding, knuckle game.

Tobias Wicke has a full profile in an upcoming Props release. The entire interview was done in Germany so lets hops our translations are ok. Tobias is amazing so I think the riding will speak for itself. Tobias will be on the upcoming Road Fools Rock-n-Roll Tour Presented by Fender Guitars.

Stew Johnson is finishing up filming on the Etnies video, so after 11 months Stew is actually going to be able to sleep. After
Walter Pieringer being on the road for 9 months straight filming for Props, Stew will be hitting the road again for Props trips. Walter's only home in 2006 is a giant white truck that has been dubbed obnoxious by some wealthy suburbanites.
- Roadies/security crew for the upcoming Fender Guitars BMX Rock-n-Roll Tour looks to accomplish nothing more than cracking open a cold ones on the upcoming November tour. The crew consists of
Leland Thurman, Big Dave from FBM, BMX Team manager legend
Lou Caperelli, and Blackout sales manager

Catfish and
