MADISON, Wis. - December 21, 2005 - Who’s the scariest dude on the MTB Race circuit? Here’s a hint: he’s the scariest dude on the BMX Race circuit, too, and he’s an amateur that has all the pros scared. GT proudly announces that Joey Bradford has joined the team.

Bradford has over 200 National main event wins and is fresh off accomplishing the most difficult feat in BMX. Bradford took the "Grand Slam of BMX," winning the big four Championships: ABA Worlds, UCI Worlds, ABA National Champion and NBL National Champion.

At only age 16, Joey Bradford rides like a seasoned veteran. Bradford lives in Monterey, Cali. and competes in Junior Eite or Junior Men in BMX and 18-and-under Junior Expert class in MTB. Bradford’s riding the GT Moto in his MTB comps and the GT Ultrabox in his BMX comps.

NBR presents the Red Bull DVD "loading". What makes this premiere so special looking back at the past two? The event is located in the local park, MEKER! Not many people from the Netherlands have ever been there. Therefore it's an opportunity for all the riders to go and check what Zeeland has to offer..... Next to that the entrance is FREE and the beer is at an all time low price.

This means the NBR kicks things off with a jam format in their skatepark. From 13:00 till 19:00 the riders will be able to explore what Meker has to offer. Tech lines and a lot of cool wallrides. Paul's Boutique is sponsoring the goodies for best trick overall-best tech line & best wallride!

Around 21:00 the DVD "Loading" will go in action, showing all the skills of the riders who went on the road trip but also showing the amazing talents of editmaster Dwayne Verkade. Hands down.....

With echoes of cars above you and trains rattling past and the sounds of feet walking over broken glass, you are happier than ever at 6am in the cold waiting to drop into a homemade ramp with sketchy transitions and cracks in the floor.  Underneath 95 covered in dirt and homemade concrete, at one of the southern most points in Philadelphia exists a cultural icon of public space built by the determination of young kids. Right now this is the only legal public place to ride a BMX bike in Philadelphia and it is FDR.  BMX sessions there are from six in the morning until 9 in the morning.

It's about X-mas and companies are throwing parties and give out presents to their employees. At Vans they got a Ragga band and ordered a truck load of In-N-Out Burger food. Wow, how good it this?! 
Here's what Rob-O ordered:
"A Double-Double with Fries, Diet Coke and a Strawberry shake please? and a cheeseburger for Fatty."
   In-n-Out worker: "No Fries, just chips."
"Whatever bro, I'll take it and send the bill to Santa!  Thanks" 

We got a bunch of links to short movies for you if you're bored and want to watch some riding.
