"It's been a year and a half since I started to film this edit with Arnaud and the road to finishing this project was hard. I took 6 heavy injuries in one year, and working full time as a barista in Strasbourg doesn't help haha! I already made some decisions for this year with my work and shit to ride more and start some new video projects... so you know there will be more "GASSS" in 2022 ?" - Jo Gass
New Year, new Miki Fleck footage! Miki is non-stop out there and now we've got 3 minutes of his latest endeavours for United. Creativity, style and smiles throughout - Miki rules.
"This video was filmed across one month in Lyon (France) and around my parent’s place in Bourgoin-Jallieu. I had my camera in my bag every day so whenever I had an idea for something I could give it to my friends to film.

"We started filming this project not long after Santos received his new bike, and at that time we were still roommates so the motivation to go out and film was always there. After a few weeks of filming in Montpellier he break his foot on a handrail (I had pictures from that moment on a disposable Kodak but the photo laboratory lost my film...)
Over the last few months United's Kris Bunnage has been out stacking clips with his UK homies on any day he could and has come through with this edit full of his signature style.
A few weeks back we posted the 'Curfew In California' video, featuring United's Seamus Mckeon, Andrew Lazaruk and Mike "Rooftop" Escamilla riding unfamiliar terrain in the Californian sunshine, 90% of which was a selection of top quality pool excursions. Watch the behind-the-scenes action from their time in the deep end.
