So last week the trail jam in Cassleberry went down.. it was to help raise money to keep the house going. They are struggling and that house has been bmx friendly before I even started riding! So if you want to donate, get ahold of Shadow Conspiracy help the cause! The jam was insane, we showed up at around 11 am and people where already killing it! People where out there at 5am fixing the jumps getting them all nice and smooth…We rode the trails all day. There was not a time where there was no one cruising through.
