Mountainbikes?
Monday, February 11, 2008
Hmm, heres an interesting one- Most of you will know about the sponsorship changes that Taj and Aaron Ross have both been through in the last couple of months, with Taj now aboard a fleet of Giants and Aaron on Sunday bikes now. Who would have thought they would be on mountainbikes though? Not that I have anything against MTBs, just not in a park or anywhere a BMX would be better. Heres a pic of both. Taj and Aaron recently took part in a 'BIKE' competition for mountainbikes, they were paired up as a team and just got squeezed into second place by some MTB heavy hitters.
Go HERE to checkout more of the comp
And I know its not 'freestyle' related but Cambridge lad Mark Willers just got 2nd in the first round of BMX Supercross (bmx racing on steroids) in Madrid, Spain. Pretty rad to see the fastest dude in NZ mixing it up with the big boys. How is this relevant to ZOMBIE? Well for starters he has 20" wheels like most of us, and he can still ride trails (really well), while most racer guys are all about the gym, clip pedals and protein shakes, Mark can mix it up at the trails with some flat pedals and a big smile with some Cash in the bank after the 2nd place. At the race there was also a dirt jump comp, Naran from Fly bikes took it out with Sergio right behind him. Hit up FATBMX for more...
Thoughts? Let us know what you think of this in the comments.....
