mco--rytell3.jpgWow the last like week has been really amazing. Riding every day at the UCF school. It is a lot of fun. My friends come over every morning and we go film at the school. I am filming for the new Mirraco web video which should be amazing! My friends are also filming for the Welcome to Pittsburgh video and a Square One video. They have been coming out with some banging stuff.

mco--rytell2.jpgMy bike nowadays is amazing except for my cranks. At the school there is this ledge by like a 10 set with a nice rail going down it. I hopped on the ledge and 3-d over the rail down the stairs and my cranks bent so I will be running by Shadow soon to build up a new bike. I hope.

I also am riding brakeless now. I took my brakes off like a week ago and I have to tell you it’s so much different. I love it. You have to be one with your bike, it’s like learning to ride all over again. They might go back on though in a couple of months or weeks depends on how I feel. Oh and to the guys at the X games, it was sick. You guys need to calm down haha.

THANKS MIRRACO.
