SoCal Winter Vacation

OneLoveJam2014 is right around the corner, so I decided to take a trip down south to film a lil promo/winter vacation edit. This trip I took the train down. The train ride takes you through the mountains, and then down onto the coast along the side of Hwy 1 aka the PCH.

It was great to see all the local shredders out during my visit. So many different style of riding its hard to capture it all. Enough of the talk, just check out my road trip edit and we will see you goons at OneLoveJam2014 at Newport Beach Ca!
Peace

The Steven Show Ep. 8 - The Sonoma Bike Expo

Aileen  shared this really funny edit from a local web episode of last weekend's Sonoma County Bike Expo. Check out the sick trick going down on his road bike and shopping cart. Also check out this local news coverage of the event. OneLoveBmx gets a lil shout out. Peace.

10 Questions - Jody Temple

Hmm how should I start this one.  Jody Temple aka Fat Joe aka Joe Ski Love aka Q-Change is probably no...he is the hardest of hardcore riders left in the states.  I meet JT around 2000, there was a BS contest in ATL and a big jam sesh in Athens that weekend.  Let me say that weekend was like crazy, everybody was killing it, but it was JT who I was watching, I was so blown away by his switches.  By 02 I finally made my move to Athens Ga, by that time JT was killing it.  I often speak of him as my white twin brother from another mother, his born day is one day after mine, both of our mothers are school teachers, and our love for Jamesons, and large breast.
I  don't want to bore you with my intimate tales of one of my homies, cuz I might start tearing, miss that dude.  So lets get this ish started.
~Darin W

    Joseph Martin Temple Jr, Jan 14 1975 Athens Ga

     Maybe a glass of Tempranillo, Primotivo or Grenache. Otherwise a Bass followed by PBR and Jameson.

4. Do you truly believe that the Predators can defeat the Alien race?

    I believe the Predators could straight slap jack the xenomorphs Philly style, but then what would they do for fun?

5. What are your most fondest memory riding your Bmx?

    There are so many, it seems like Athens has  had a golden age for 13 years now.  Nathan Penonzek living here was a damn fine time, he brought so many top dudes here like Martti, Nathan, Simon and Viki that I would have never otherwise gotten to see shred the Tate center (RIP).

6. What is the name of your children's book? When will you drop your children's book?

Hella Sweet Jam

http://www.google.com/search?client=safari&rls=en&q=ALAMEDA+SKATEPARK&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8

This Sunday come out and shred the gnar.  Flat, street, park and dirt.  Its looking like this is gonna be a pretty fun event.  I got word from Sean M @ S&M Bikes that there will be flatland best trick comp going down also.  We will see you trifling m'fer's on Sunday!

He Pedal Where??

OneLoveCrew member Shayne K took a trip down the coast during Voodoo Jam weekend.  This was his first of many more trips to come.  But for now check out his sick trip down to Monterey CA.  Filmed with only GoPro's only.  Puff!

GoPro 3 Test Shots

It seems that I get into a roll of updating daily, but then I just dont either have the time or sometimes do not care to update.  Sometime next week Ill be dropping some exciting news, so stay tuned for that.
I finally got my hands on the new GoPro3.  I must say I am very impressed.   I was planing to shoot more footage, but Shayne had all the good accessories on his bike trip down to Monterey.  So I took a few shots of myself, and hopefully I will throw together another edit.  Look for Shyane's Monterey bicycle trip soon, all filmed with GoPros.  Puff!

4/20Jam Edit

Well we could not ask for a better day.  The 4/20Jam went down last weekend.  Plenty of sun and fun.  Its a good thing those SoCal dudes didnt show up.  All the prizes were split up to everyone who came out.  We call that up here CaliLove.  Best trick went to OSG, second place went to Sparker.  I love NorCal, for a couple of reasons. One, Everybody loves to get together for beers, bikes, and BBQ.  Two It's NorCal, and if you never been up here then you will never know.
Well here's the edit.  Enjoy!

4/20 Jam in 4 Days

Yep 4 days left.  Its looking like its going to be a great turn out.   Maybe there might be some footage, its hard to film and ride, sorry I'd rather ride than film, but if you really want to catch the action then you're going to have to come out, especially if you are already in California.  Funny how the NorCal guys can rally down for a jam but we never hear from those SoCal guys....much love to your scene but you guys really need to take a trip up here.  Don't forget we are holding our first flat best trick contest during the jam.  Prize will be giving out to the best trick.  Big shoutout to our sponsors for helping out this event!  See you this Saturday!

Ganji Bootleg Tour SlideShow

So after seeing a post on instagram, I know I said it, anyway, I saw a flyer for an up coming tour.  Now I don't want to say about time, but every time I watch Ganji Bootleg, It always runs in my head, why wasn't there more of this.  Unlike the Trifling Tour, Bootleg was released as a DVD and since it was called bootleg, it was available as a torrent, which the site is now down.  Bobby D uploaded the Iphone version online sometime ago.  If anyone wants a DVD copy I can dropbox you.  Find me on twitter and let me know.

4/20 Promo

I think this is the first promo I didn't use a sample.  And I feel great.  See you in 22 days!

Paranoid

With all the talks about gun bans, drones on american soil, wireless phone tapping, big brother watching through your TV sets, GMO, and adding fluoride to our water supply, which is something thats going on in our neck of the woods.  You wonder how did we get here?  Or is the herb making me paranoid.
Any way this is just a short list what is going down.  Now back in '97 I read John Colman 2nd book "The Conspirators Hierarchy, the Committee of 300" not only did it open my eyes, it also caused some of my homies at the time think, "D is smoking too much."
You be the judge.  I read this about 16 years ago, and I think its time that you read it to.  Hit the link!

There will be no rain spot, just a smoke spot, so bring you're lungs!
Mark your calendars for this epic event!

Immortal Technique on Alex Jones Show

I honestly go back and forth with Alex's view, but this interview with Tech proves to me that great minds do think alike.

The Few & Proud

I stumbled on this website via a comment left on FlatmattersOnline earlier this week.  Im stoked to see that Duncan Gore is and will always be the few and proud riders with over 12" of pole.  Go check out Bring the Seatpost Back for some really funny seatpost shots and an awesome article on Pivotal Seats.

Too Small Bikes 3 Premier -March8th- NorCal

Yep you see it, we are apart of a world wide premier.  I contacted Jussi and Julius to see if we can hold our own premier.  Since it's on a Friday, anyone who comes out should stay and ride on Saturday.  If no one in the Bay can make it on Friday, then come out on Saturday to ride, and we will show it again.
We will be showing the movie premier at Mike's crib up here in Santa Rosa.  If you have any questions, hit me up on FB or call me.
Be warned though, Vegas Mike is firing up the BBQ, and his BBQ technique is unstoppable!
See you March 8th!

Good Luck Homie

Man terrible news yesterday, John Richards the man behind TIP/Primo BMX has left the building. This morning has been a little rough for me after reading this news.  John took his passion to the next level with Primo, and I admire a man who puts all of his heart into his work.  Not only did he rebrand the company within a year, he also brought together probably the sickest riders to the Primo brand.  Unfortunately when the big wigs don't understand that you have to spend money to make money in this sport, then you get results like this.
Good luck John, never look at this as this is the end, but a new beginning.  Good luck again, and when I'm down south let go out for some fish tacos.

The Uncle Ruckus Movie

"what website is that? madeupmonkeyshit.com?"

Now for all of you that have been under a rock, The Boondocks creator Aaron McGruder has started a KickStarter page to fund his up and coming live action movie, The Uncle Ruckus Movie.  Im not sure who is playing Ruckus part, but he does have the voice, and that strange eye thing going for him.

Swerve

Brother's Bikes just sent me a few pics from the last OneLoveJam.  Heres the link,you know what to do.

Impaqued Issue 1

Ok so here's my #throwbackthursday post.  Impaqued Issue 1!  I think it was only available if you bought Essence on DVD.  This is the 1st section, Ill upload more next week.  Till then enjoy.


Impaqued Issue 1 from One Love BMX on Vimeo.

Czarface

I can't even tell you how long I've been waiting for this.  This new super group isn't new to the game.  Inspectah Deck, Esoteric and 7L joins together to form Czarface.  While most will scratch their heads at the 90's references, some will appreciate flow like this.  Go out and cop this shit.  Here's the first single off the album "Air'em Out"

Essence

Rain is on the way.  So I uploaded this for anyone sitting at home today.
Essence was released around 2002 I think.  I believe Erin was still living on my couch at the time when this was being filmed.  Staring James Kennedy, Anthony Herbano, Erin Donato, Gabe Kadmiri, Mikey Gaidos, Terry Adams, and Matt Wilhelm.  Theres also a sick mix section that you would not wanna miss.  Filmed and edited by Neon Media!

Peace.

Kung Fu/Flatland

Lizard style. 

They call most flatlanders ninja's, I would say we are more like monks, Shaolin  monks.  Why?  Think about it.  We practice, train, and also strive to push ourselves to the next level (chambers) to discover our own style.
Peace

Clan of the White Lotus is a classic.

10 Questions - Dane Beardsley

boost in the garden

I sat down with Dane Beardsley last weekend at OneLoveJam2013 and told him I got 10 questions for him.  Just check out what's good with Dane on the fine art of bartending and stock tips.

1. Name, age, location, and sponsor?

 Dane, 31, Georgia, DK Bicycles, The Freestyle  Connection, and SameThingDaily


2. Trails, Street or Park?

     I'm from the streets.

3.  Favorite destination?

     Anywhere.

4. Hot sauce on everything?

    Not on my ice cream.

5. Kale or spinach?

     Spinach

6.  What company should I buy stocks in?

 Right now I'm selling, but you might want to look into SLV.  Look for a high dividend (yield %)     stock if your looking to buy right now cause the market is kind of high.  Don't expect instant profits and try and avoid owning a stock for less then one year.

7. What vegetable grows the best in your garden?

Greens such as kale and lettuces grow good in the spring. Tomatoes grow ok in the summer.

8. How do you make a margarita?

Fill a short glass with ice then add a 3 count of tequila and a 2 count of triple sec. Next squeeze some fresh lime juice and add simple syrup until the glass is full. Mix everything together or shake if possible. Or go to a Mexican restaurant.

9. You and the Duke are doing shows where?

Maybe the Alaskan bush in February, but no official word yet.  Hope it works out.

OneLoveBMX/OneLoveJam2013 Edit

The third annual OneLoveJam2013 went down this last weekend.  Big thanks to all our sponsors.  We raffled off 10 fat sacks at this year event, and Brock won $100 dollars cash for another first place at the bunny hop contest.
After the jam, we headed up to Bear Mountain with professional snowboarder Bo Wade to shred the gnar.  This was the best way to end such a killer weekend.  Thanks Bo for taking us out to the slopes.
If you never been to a OneLoveJam then you need to mark your calenders now.  OneLoveJam is held every MLK weekend in January. See you next year!
