I Meet John last year accually on are first roadtrip togeathere. And let me tell you there is just about no one els that i would rathere travele. John is amazing on his bike he will impress u or make u laghe just about all the time. He could care less what you do that day as long as it includes friends bikes and good times. He is prolly the most easy going guy i have ever meet it was very easy to just tell him to jump aborde and hold on for the ride.He just goes with the flow and takes life a day a time. U might call john one day and he will be cruzing through the streets of sf or okland, another and he will be in portland or denver. All in all john is a great dude and if u ever see him rollen through your town hit him up for sure a good time!

What a weekend!
So Friday finally got here and the Revolt crew went straight from the 9-5s to riding the weekend away. Friday started off at a UCI sesh that was alot of fun! Samir went straight to work with a nice rail hop. And the rest of us got things going right after that. Saturday and Sunday we went straight up to LA and put in some work riding from one end of the city to the other finding some great spots and some not so great spots. It was for sure a weekend of some fantastic footie. Get ready for some hot web vids and more.. here are some photos i liked from the weekend!

Sunday Sunday Sunday
This Sunday was real good! The LA jam was super good and alot of good things went down. there is nothing like over 80 riders coming together in one spot to flood the streets with good times! Quincy Dean was in the house shutting spots down along with many others. Here are some photos I was able to grab during the the chaos. Thanks to everyone who came out and shredded.
