Inferno Jam 2010
Inferno Jam 2010! August 14th in Penticton, BC. We have a few things in the works if everything goes to plan. One idea is a winner take all game of Team Bike.
Come down to the Penticton skatepark, and chill with some local riders, as well as a few Ten Pack team members. Special Thanks to Freedom Cycle, Ten Pack Distribution, Volume, and Demolition.
Leave some comments below if you have any ideas to make the jam a little more fun!

COMMUTER CHECK
Shortly before moving down to Van my girlfriend and I restored this old Raleigh ladies bike for her to use as her transport for the streets of Vancouver.
We pulled the bike out of a near by garden in Kelowna. The people who owned it were using it as a ornament and letting it rust away. It was originally green and rusty and almost every moving part was seized.
Striping it down we found that it was still in pretty good shape and definitely salvageable. After about 3 months of painting, polishing and lots of trips down to Kelowna Cycle to bug Shane and Mike for probably the cheapest bike parts that they sell, she was rolling in glory.
Check her out below

Slades Edit
BK one rainy day edit from Slade Scherer on Vimeo.
Hi there, this is my first post up on this site, and I'm pretty stoked! This edit above is of Slade, Armstrong Kris, Kyle Lightfoot, and myself during a rainy day.
Although Slade is no out of riding for the summer, due to a broken scaphoid, He used his spare to take up some editing. Hope you enjoy

Zach Rampen on Actnow
My bro Zach has been sending content to the site since day one but has now agreed to come on and contribute with his own posts, both BMX and non BMX related. He takes rad photographs and is a really creative and a all round talented dude.
Zach is living out in Kelowna at the moment so will hopefully be able to keep up some coverage with the Okanagan.
I'm super pumped on having another person's flavor on the site and will hopefully add some diversity to the content.

Thanks Cuz!

VANCITY
We're been having a few chilled afternoon sessions out at Hastings over the past couple of weeks. Hastings is for sure one of the best parks in BC and is awesome for getting over any kind of fear you might have about hauling ass at 8 foot plus monster quarters.
With the awesome light that the west coast gets in the afternoons it's perfect for good riding shots. These photos are of George Bolter, a bro from back home in NZ who has been living in Van for the past 12 or so months.

MIA
So its been over a month now since I've last posted on this blog, my apologies to anyone who has even still been checking for updates.
Since my last post I've moved down to Vancouver. So far its been a rad time and will hopefully mean more content for this blog as well with the much larger riding scene here.
For now here are some shots from different random sessions during my last month in the sunny Okanagan. I've also invested in a couple of Pocket Wizards to trigger my flash from a tripod, definitely an essential piece of equipment for riding photos.
Thanks to Andrew and Slade for all the photos!
Peace.
