Mike Spinner has an interview up on www.fatbmx.com. The 19 year old filled out some questions while he was on the plane heading back to Florida from Las Vegas where he shot an interview and did some promotional stuff for the Dew Tour.
Mike will now go on a cruise for a week and he is going to try to survive without the internet. Wish him luck.

RIDE UK BMX MAG number 113 hit the newsstands and it has a Mirraco Blend 2 bike review as well as the M3 Forks and Gas pedals in the product section. Ryan Guettler gets a double page spread where his signature Whip shoe is featured in a VANS advertisement.
M3 Black Label forks: Dave’s little garage company (ha……yeah, right) have just released a plethora of aftermarket parts to back up their amazing complete bike range: The Mirraco Black Label Forks feature 5 mm dropouts, fully heat treated double butted cromoly legs, one-piece CNC machined steerer tube, milled-out dropouts, and they weigh 2.2lb. The raw sandblast colourway is also impressive.
On the M3 Gas Pedal RIDE wrote: These are high quality pedals, they feel perfect.
Blend 2 review: RIDE sums it up like this: Overall, it’s pretty hard to pick fault with this bike at this price point - it’s right on the money. After all, would you want to argue with Dave? Go ahead. Be my guest.

Hey what’s up guys! So the last two weeks have been tons of FUN! Had a great time at Woodward. Two years ago I left my 1989 OLDSMobile there and they were finally going to tow it so Ryan took a few pics of me jumping on it.
Then I flew to Arizona for a Nike trip which just ended two days ago, Then my friend Kyle Carlson picked me up And we shot as much as we could in one day for an interview that we are working on. And now I am in Las Vegas for two more days for some Dew Tour stuff. I think Jamie Bestwick is coming in later today. It’s pretty cool, we are gonna be the only athletes here!

Nigel Sylvester and fellow animal riders Edwin Delarosa and Tyrone Williams visited a New York Elementary school at Lynbrook South and talked about BMX. They put a good word out to the kids, told them to stay in school and keep away from drugs.
The riders had fun doing it and the kids loved it too. Well done.
Got chocolate?

The FISE Experience series kicked off last weekend in Gregam, France. The 2008 contest series is sponsored by FIAT and the overall winner will drive off in a FIAT Panda 4X4. 17 year old Mirraco rider Maxime Charveron has his mind set on the car and started off the series well by winning the first round.
Congrats to the Frenchy. Little interview with Maxime right here.

Mike Spinner has been “Chillin’” over at Woodward camp. Last night Tom Stober decided to film a session and if you ride like this on a daily basis, you know you’ve put your ground work in. Spinner threw an invert in the smooth 720 and also pulled his first 1080 over the box at Woodward (East).
See double tailwhip footjams, lots of backwards manuals to 360-s, and more tech riding by Mike. The session they filmed was only 30 minutes long. How long would it take for Mike to finish a video part?
Watch it!
