Caleb & I drove to Cali. Yes the yellow H2 with “Big Blu” the monster shrink wrapped boat and the Range Rover pulling the Harley in the yellow trailer.
Caleb & Nicky drove together, so I took my girl (wish she we’re my girl) Lily, TEACUP YORKIE.
Why? We moved a client’s family into Orange County California [...]
Spontaneous Road Trip? Shad Holland, Jason Nevonen, Tristan Thiel, Dustin Griess. S to Omaha, W thru the Rockies, directly into Vegas. Interbike Expo 2009. T minus 24h
Great to be in Vegas & off the clock this year ;) There was talk about helping out the QBP BMX booth with Kyle being gone and Dan injured [...]
Family reunion in Montana. Literally hours from Yellowstone, I had to go there. I can’t even explain this place and what I experienced. Seriously. Done.
My high school prom date Zlata (who randomly had college classes (during high school) with my BMX friend Evan at the UofM (who now happens to be my roommate) really random) spent 6 weeks in Central America with her friend, and invited Evan and I to visit them in Costa Rica for a week. Evan [...]
Chicago Gay Pride Parade just happens to be the same weekend Evan & I travel to Chicago, coincidence?
“Hey, can we get a quick photo with you guys?” -DG
“Hold awwwnnnnn, we need to finish lathering each other up with our special tanning lotion”
3 Minutes Later…
“Just a quick photo” -DG
“Hold awwwwwwwnnnnnnnn!!” lol
“Good lord, just give me some [...]
I’ve been on the wait list forever, and one week before I got in! I was in CA at the time, and actually had to book another earlier one way flight back to MN to get home and out to Chicago in time. I drove down a few days early for practice. First of all, [...]
For all of you BMX/Skate/Gymnastic Woodward Westers out there, remember Joel from the Ostrich Ranch down the road from camp? Joel is my new favorite uncle ;)
Gosh you’re getting big Joel ;)
Yes Matthew & I are San Francisco’s hottest Nautica male models ;)
Everywhere you look
Everywhere you go
There’s a heart
A hand to hold onto
Evan and I are in San Francisco, and boy, did we ever fit in… Upgrading our rental car to a Mustang convertible was totally worth it for this photo alone. You may or may not know that just about every tech company you’ve every heard of is located in the Silicon Valley area, so Evan [...]
The most ridiculous contest ever. Roll in bunny hop off 2 ocean containers. 14′ long x 12′ drop into an 8′ landing. Peoples knees were giving out when they hit this thing. One kid hung up on the landing and rodeo bucked to his face & went to the ER within the first 10 mins [...]
So JC was my instructor, the dude was 6′+, and jumps barefoot. I asked “How long you been doing this?” He says, “This is my third time, they say if I land good with you, they’ll let me jump on my own” WTF. lol he literally man handled me, rolled out backwards from the plane [...]
Waldorf Historia Collection Grand Wailea Hilton Resort. Maui, Hawaii. First time snorkling, the water was fricken rediculous.. You could hear the wales underneath too! We spent 13 hours driving around a volcano, every few hours the scenery would totally change.. From Jurassic Park to Mars. Check out the entire album
I may or may not have [...]
Cal & I aren’t kidding anyone this Halloween, we went up Wednesday thru Sunday…
Helped man the QBP BMX booth at Interbike this year.
Shortly after bailing out of the plane (which you can see in the top of the photo) and dropping from 15000 feet. At this point it seriously feels like time has stopped as you travel 120 MPH towards earth… Nothing can compare to free falling like this, words can’t describe it.
Ashley & I checked out Yosemite for the first time.. I don’t believe I’ve ever really been to any of the large national parks. Seriously blown away..
QBPBMX on Props Mega Tour 8! Downtown NYC. Seriously the most fun of the whole trip… Weaving through traffic, blowing stop lights & stop signs with other local commuters, right in front of dozens of NYPD. It appeared as if they couldn’t care any less.
Evan, Darrin, Nick, Todd, Caleb, and I took the Excursion out east. Stopped at a handful of sweet parks and eventually made it to Dew Tour in Cleveland. Lots of interesting stories that we’ll keep off the web for now ;)
Legal?
Weekend trip to Chicago! Saw John Pinette!!
Jeremiah from Chaos on Wheels asked AJ and I to do a stunt show at a Franklin Graham event just outside of Seattle, WA in Tacoma. I was super excited to do this, I have never been out that direction and I love doing show and riding bikes with AJ. We flew out together and [...]
This summer Mt Dew had an amature contest series called the “Dew Tour Free Flow” that consisted of 14 local contests around the US, one being located in the cities in Hopkins, MN at the 3rd Lair Overpass Skatepark. The winners of these local contests around the US, flew out (all expenses paid) to Orlando [...]
Our last stop of the tour, Rome. Pretty much the longest standing city in the world. Rome is definitely something to see. The Coliseum, the ancient Roman Empire ruins, the Vatican (which is technically it’s own separate country). It is incredible to see all of this stuff, and how old it has been around for. [...]
You wouldn’t think that the leaning tower is really leaning that much, but holy god… You would not believe the size of that thing when you get there, about 200′ tall and is it ever leaning! The top is 14′ over from where it should be. It is huge. We also went to an Italian [...]
