...or near enough.

I find it really hard to care about BMX teams, unless there's a team video being put out (infrequent). As a result, it's probably unsurprising that I didn't know who would be on Verde's UK team. This video (and the accompanying article in Ride UK) certainly enlightened me, although the sort of 'style' of team seems to be a bit different to the US team. Not talking about in terms of outright ability or anything, but they just seem to be different sets of riders. Meh, who cares?

Here's Verde's UK trip. Highlights just how rad Kevin Kiraly is:



Trey Jones is awesome. He's got a great section in the new Cult DVD (About £10 or so, available from the shop now, just give 'em a call! Amazing video, definitely worth it), and this Tuesdays With Miles vid from his back yard is cool too. Some awesome front wheel action.



While we're talking new vids, the latest Road Fools, according to TheComeUp, will feature these dudes with a few bonus extras.

Madera:
Dave McDermott
Jeff Kocsis

I think I may have posted this, but if not, Tony Hamlin is all good. From Kink.



P.S. Would've originally been a 12:34 post, but customers spannered those particular works...

History repeating?

I sincerely hope not. Please tell me the cringe-worthy scripts that used to plague BMX videos (I'm looking at you, Glenn P.P. Milligan - although notable mention goes to Dave Mirra in Sentenced To Life) aren't making a comeback? This Road Fools trailer would've worked pretty much with the opening clip of Big Daddy, that gigantic wallride, and Tony Hamlin chainsawing Nathan Williams' pedal...



Day 2 of that Frenchys tour is up. Click here for that, and some more surreal French music in a BMX video, and click the "Frenchys" tag to see Day 1. I'm not usually a fan of hang 5s in pretty much any form, but this video's worth watching purely for Randy Taylor's so-long-it's-measured-in-time-not-distance 3 and a half hour long hang 5.

Another week, another Tomorrow We Work section - this time, it's Marv:



I saw this link floating around some other BMX sites, but then I saw it pop up Deluxe so I assumed it'd be worth the watch. Sure was. Flip-whip crashes look scaaaaary.
