Mike Spinner shows up in issue 22 of Cream Magazine (France) with a bike check. Bike set ups change on a regular basis so to see what Mike rides these days you gotta move to page 022.

Although the bike check is quite fresh, Mike’s bike can look different next time you see him. That’s the way it goes. Thanks for Cream for the article.

Mirra- Ended up dislocating his shoulder in New Zealand. So he has not been riding, but I wouldn’t say hes taking it easy. He also just celebrated his one year wedding anniversary with his wife Lauren. It was a good celebration. Congrats Dave!

Guettler- Just got home from Australia and hosted a really good welcome back/ Hope’s B day party. A lot of good times and catching up.

Spinner- Has been doing what he does best and thats ride. If you see him tell him I want my new Ride BMX mag back. NOW! Nigel- Just left for Mexico so looking forward to the interesting stories he will bring back.

Laird- Is finishing up on the smaller section at Jaycee park and how he does with his hands still hurting. Only Laird only Laird.

Rytell- Should be working on getting a passport. Just a friendly reminder.

Gator- Officially just had one of the best weekends of my life. So thanks to everyone who was involved in making that happen. tomorrow I head out for New Jersey got to handle a few things and probably be back by the time you read this. I’m OUT!
