how do you recycle aluminum plates that sprockets have been cut out of? like this, courtesy of dan sieg…that’s definitely dan in the photo.

man, jonah’s bike is so awesome.

the youtube and vimeo channels are updated with a new video of ian that harry edited up. a lot of good stuff in it, so watch it.

also, drew has an interview over on bmxunion where he touches on his injury, his aardvark penis looking cast, and a lot of other stuff.

the new issue of rideuk (118) has a photo of russell mis-captioned as tony malouf.

jonah bike check and a race update sooon.

we’ve had a lot going on lately so that’s why the news has been sparse for the past week or so. today is no different either. just a quick update for now…

we have a couple new colors on some shirts. i suppose you could call them summer colors?

we also have track jackets in…and quite early too, haha. they come in black and red and are dope. i’ll get pictures up ASAP.

harry d. has edited a couple videos and i’ll be putting those up on our channels real soon.

strip bar samples will be in real soon for testing. can’t wait!

drew is back in moline and has an awesome “tattoo?” on his cast. i approve.

tulsa life.

check out this awesome edit harry made over on vital. it has some used and unused footage from STA and the music is completely original, from harry himself.

drew now has a hard cast on his arm that looks kinda like an uncircumcised penis.

first of all, go check out this INSANE VIDEO OF DREW. wowzers. drew was goin crazy, killing tulsa’s spots when this happened…

…put his hand through a windshield of an old truck trying a gap to rail. he had some serious nerve damage and the dr’s worst case scenario seems to be that he may not be able to make a fist. if you know drew, then you know he’ll be riding again. so call, text, or myspace him and give him some good words. he’s stuck in oklahoma for check-ups with the surgeon that worked on him.

also, there’s a cool AZ video over on the ride site that’s got some good riding from greg litecky…and it’s not racing.

We need a racer to test a prototype 20″ top tube race frame for us. Any riders that are interested can e-mail us at info@standardbyke.com or call 563-323-4894.

Tony Hawk’s Boom Boom Huck Jam
7/30/08 @ 6:30p
I Wireless Center

There is still time to get your tickets to see Tony Hawk and the rest of the Boom Boom Huck Jam crew. This years lineup is Tony, Kevin Staab, Jesse Fritsch, Sergie Ventura, and Neal Hendrix on the skate side. Kevin Robinson, John Parker, and Dennis McCoy head up the BMX and Drake McElroy, Gregg Garrison, and one more tba handling the Motocross. Plus Jason Ellis will be on the mic for the event.

You can pick tickets at any Ticketmaster outlet or stop by Goodtimes for a chance to win free tickets.

first up, we’ve started production on a 2008.5 250L. it has integrated, mid, and weighs in at 4.7lbs. They should be out real soon! Also, our metal working slave built our very own serial number stamper. this means that you can even customize your frame all the way down to the serial number (words, letters, or both and up to 10 characters)! I CALL 0000000069, haha!

here’s a photo of ty johnson at southpark taken by his dad, tom johnson. tom got cruiser wins at the same race. that’s awesome!
