Before heading out on the last two tours through Edmonton/Calgary and Winnipeg/Saskatchewan I was talking to Harrison about doing a ‘Disposed’ feature for Defgrip. I took a few disposable cameras along with me and came back with some pretty entertaining stuff. Part One of the feature is up right now on Defgrip with photos like the one above taken during the Winnipeg/Saskatchewan tour, check it all out here and watch out for Part Two!
The guys at Gearheads sent over this photo of a rad custom build they did for a customer. Tons of goods from MacNeil, Demolition, Volume, WTP and more on it. Check out another photo after the jump.
Here’s a pic of Andy Roode poppin’ off hard. Seen on Volume Bikes, photo by Mike Cardin.
Team rider Chijioke Okafo recently sent through this photo that Mike Headford shot of him and his Volume built up with a bunch of new Demolition parts. Chi had surgery on his left shoulder a while back and has been in the healing process for a bit but has been getting back on the horse recently and should be back killing it soon. Watch out for Chijioke on an upcoming summer tour and a more in-depth bike check soon!

As I said in a post a bit ago, Dave Hawthorne came on the Winnipeg/Saskatchewan trip with us and shot a lot of great photos along the way, including the one above of Greg Flag (MacNeil) in Winnipeg doing a wild double peg to hop over. Yea, that’s what I said. Check out a bunch more after the jump including a few animated GIFs I made with some of his sequences, thanks again Dave!
Check out the Animal Move Makers New Era hat (pictured above) and a bunch of other new stuff in the New Products section.
Birthday shout outs to our Verde rider Wade Lajlar today, happy birthday man! Wade was part of the recent tour we did through Edmonton/Calgary/Dawson Creek, watch out for an edit soon with some bangers from him.
This trip was a blast! We rode a ton of stuff between Quebec City, Trois Rivieres, Montreal and Ottawa and had a great time with the Animal crew, so good to have them along for the ride. Thanks to Sean Cooke for coming along to film this one.
