James McGraw – Birthday Slab

Birthday Slab from James McGraw on Vimeo.

Fancy watching something lil’ different from the Bike Days coverage, or Scott Powell’s daily videos. How about this Birthday Slab edit from James McGraw! James explains all:

“For my 47th birthday I was able to have a slab poured on the side of my new house. A flatlanders paradise. Whats funny is it was supposed to be 40/50 but unfortunately we had to cut back the size a bit due to underground stuff that was in the way as well as city codes. so when the cement guy told me the biggest we could do was 35 by “43” I could not believe my ears. It was a sign and so it is the “mountain slab” with the extra room I have now, I have really been able to work a lot of stuff that was not feasible in my shop. here is some really cool lines that I have recently hit and there is a front wheel only video in the works. 🙂 Enjoy.”
