Just prior to the Coronavirus pandemic gripping almost the entire planet, Sunday took a team trip to Las Vegas, Nevada in the beginning of March for 10 days. While news that events like SXSW had been cancelled hit during the trip, and many more events soon to follow, Vegas was still business as usual at that point.

Winter here in Colorado is cold! So the crew decided to take the twelve hour drive to Las Vegas and take in some desert heat. We were all up and down the Vegas Strip shredding pools, ditches, parks and spots. Armed with laughter and ingredients, the crew put together a solid video with punishing wrecks, big tricks and huge laughs. Starring your favorite jabronis: Clay Brown, Devin Burks, Dillon Greybeal, Josh Dunn, Mat Olson,Matt Closson, Preston Levi.

New Buyer Rewards Program Set to Spark Benefits for Retailers and Exhibitors. Interbike, the largest bicycle industry trade show in North America, today announced the launch of a new show feature designed to give retailers cash incentives to write orders. The Interbike “PayBack” Buyer Rewards Program allows retailers to earn cash back for booking at-once orders during the course of the event with participating exhibitors. Retailers can earn up to $1500, which in most cases can pay for an entire trip to the event.
The buyer rewards concept is new to Interbike, but has a long history with another Emerald Expositions

Hook-ups: Pete Demos and Scott Papiro sent me a very nice Premium complete called La Vida, when I got out of jail. Kevin Conners at Fiend is going to be sending me some things in the near future, and my good friends George Bugbee and James Tracy aka Big Fetus have been keeping me afloat in the mean time. Nathan Grill hooked me up with a full time job recently and has been working with my counseling and drug court schedule which has been super gracious of him for giving me the opportunity to support myself in an honest way again.
