feeling it from James McGraw on Vimeo.
Fresh off his win at the Round 4 stop of the AFA series in Tucson, Arizona, James McGraw is more amped up than usual and training hard for the up and coming Battle in the Rockies contest. If you have ever met or hung out with James, you will know that the man has more energy than his kids somehow. And in turn, his back wheel riding has improved a lot during the last year, hit play and enjoy this one.

Double Decade 2017 from Michael Steingraeber on Vimeo.
Yesterday as you will have seen, was double decade day! Michael Steingraeber got in on the act, watch the journey as he chases down another brakeless double decade. This is awesome!
Exactly three years ago in October 2014 I received an email from Giannis Caternellis letting me know he was documenting his progression. We all know what an impact Giannis’ riding since, Giannis posed the question in this latest edit via email “is anyone original or just copying Kevin Jones? Whatever the case, I got the real sense Giannis is playing on the bike in this new Originalidade #7 and everything is allowed, from track stands ride outs, no seat posts and much more, this is awesome to watch!
