Dam. Damn Dam
So Anthony Cico, Afro Pat, Jared Souney and I are riding(actually Jared left his bike and brought his camera's) this tranny damn somewhere in Northern Ohio.
Cico says it might be a bust and takes some photo's of it to show the rest of us to see if it's worth the drive and risk getting busted.
We all thought it looked fun and in such a small town of the side a harmless rode. What could go wrong?
We all hop over the signs and start riding it. Cico snaps his chain and takes it during his first run. He leaves to walk back a mile were the truck is. While Pat and I ride it, it's steeper than we thought and the run up is uphill. Still it's fun and exciting. Cico comes back with a new chain and cranks a turndown first hit. His feet pop off and he takes it even better this time. After about 45 minutes (that actually flew by) there's 3 cops looking at us.
The rest of the story is probably similar to what everybody else has experienced. After dodging having to stay in Ohio for an extended week for my court date, we got off with a $145 tickets. The cops were actually as cool as they could be with out breaking the law(because we know cops don't do that, right?)After being escorted downtown to pay our fines we had pizza and laughed alot about the whole deal. The last names of all 3 officers were really hilarious. I had officer Careless.
Stay tuned for the Photos that Jared Souney shot.

Congrats to Mike Aitken on getting the cover of this months RIDE BMX.
And before we get bombarded with emails, we do not make a chain.

G-Sport update.
Just a little post to keep you updated on the progress of the G-Sport hubs. We just received these samples which seem to look pretty good. Note the G-Sport etched into the collars. These hubs will feature a 7075 shell, angled flanges and steel helicoil thread inserts. Also, despite what you may think, these hubs are on the light side due to the materials and thread in style axle. Production should be under way pretty soon, so we may be seeing these by late July (hopefully).
**these hubs are not available now**
G-Sport G.L.A.N.D.S. should be showing up in better shops and mailorders right about now.

Hard Anodized Wheels
The Hazard Cassette wheelset has only come with black hubs/spokes and a chrome rim, until now. An all black wheel? No, we are not the first, but we wouldn't offer a built wheel with anything less than the best we can do, for a price you can afford. With the vast improvment in braking and wear of the Hard Anodized rim vs. regular black anodize, we are now able to offer an All Black wheel we can be stand behind.
2005 Hazard Cassette wheel set is the 2005 hub, which is improved over last years model and all the poser hubs out there, with either Chrome or Hard Black Hazard Lite rims. You can't buy a better built wheel (or find as good a price for that matter).
These wheels will start shipping soon, so contact your favorite shop or mailorder in case you want one.
