2012 end of summer mix edit

2012 end of summer mix from Dirty Lens Productions on Vimeo.

I had a fun summer doing all sorts of things. Here is a video simply smashed together since I had too many random clips and not enough to do proper individual edits. Cherish the warm sunny days, they won't last long now!

Make sure you click the vimeo link and go my page and watch in HD. It won't be amazing quality because I don't have vimeo plus, so I had to squish a big vid to fit a small margin...

Enjoy!

photo overload

Craig insisted on seeing this photo right after to check for "proper knee placement". I'd say it was good

Took a trip to Mtl and rode some secret trails. Well, I watched. They were a crazy creation that I wasn't gonna give a go. Instead I sat back and watched the locals do their thing. We also rode through the school protest at a time of night where it wasn't violent yet, and also saw "zombie boy", google image him. It has been a very random week. Here are some photos, unfortunately none of zombie boy or the protest.

Brose Farm Dirt Jam 2011

So it went down and if you weren't there you should be bummed. I am sure Chitaroni will have have plenty more photos on facebook so you can be jealous. The weather held up and it turned out to be a perfect day of riding, followed by an old school country party with lots of non bmx'ers who know to get down. It was Josh Brose's 23rd birthday and he and his family know how to put on an event. They supplied us with food, kegs of beer, a DJ, cabins to sleep, and a really great party. I think everyone had a super time out there. His parents cheered us on while people took turns doing kegs stands. It was ridiculously fun. There was also lot of riders shredding. At one point I think we were close to 20 all riding. I didn't do much photo or video because I was having far too much a good time to get off my bike. I did for a few minutes and look at the results. This great riding was going on all day long! I am hung over, loving it, and hoping it will be an annual event. Enough said.

Big thanks to Josh and the Brose family!!!

Some recent T3i fall photos

Fall is here. Probably the best time of the year to ride, if the weather works out in your favour that is. With the crap weather I am finding plenty of time to go through my photos. Here is few recent ones from  the last few weeks.

On Labour Day, an OC Transpo Special Constable was cool enough about giving us the boot from the transit area where Nick is pictured below. Funny though, he finished his piece with "school's back in tomorrow hahahahahaha." In my head I thought, you fool, I am almost 30 years old and I have a sweet job, you are the idiot working while I play. 

A few weeks back I hit up the L'Ongeuil skatepark on the South Shore of Mtl with Chitaroni. I had been wanting to hit this park over the years. Upon arrival I found the wood had been replaced with that grey recycled plastic material. It was grippy enough and turned out to be a cool park with some unique ramps. Worth checking out. While in the area, we hit up Boucherville concrete park. An odd hole in the ground park. It was a bit late in the day and kiddies were using it as pre-school playground. It's a giant oval with quarters and banks all the way around. Odd indeed, but worth hitting at least once.

Hope the photos are ok so far. I like to think they will only get better with time. More after the jump!
