Check out both of Jim’s bikes on ESPN. Photo by Sandy Carson.
Jim Bauer has a couple bike checks up on ESPN (above). The one of the left is his Sunday Model C and the one on the right is his prototype Metal frame. Sandy Carson walks you through it and even throws in a trails pic in the end!
While you’re on the ESPN site, make sure to hit up the article about Ben Ward’s ‘09 Photo Project (right). He snapped a photo a day, for a full year, complete with write-ups on each one.
And, to add to your list of things to check out this morning, Terry Adams’ Twitter contest is happening today. To win some free goods, follow him on twitter.com/terryadamsbmx.

» KC Badger Interview
KC and Mikey. Click the photo for KC’s interview.
ESPN just posted an interview with KC Badger. With a Bachelor of Arts degree under his belt, he’s done with school now and plotting his next move. Whatever it ends up being, it’s a safe bet that there’ll still be plenty of stylishly, over-clicked turndowns in his future.

What was it like? Please tell me you danced. Did you dance?
Being on the show was an awesome experience! I danced like an hour before I went on. Just not with Ellen.

» Back to Basics with Taj
ESPN just put up a photo gallery with Taj. It’s a nice pictorial that’ll give you some insight on what life’s been like for him while he heals from back surgery.
» Matt Beringer's snow bike!
ESPN just put up an awesome video of Matt and Cameron Wood riding their snow-bikes. The ski mounts are custom built by Matt and they’re dialed!
» Mike Vincent Benefit Ride
Mike Vincent and Jimmy Levan
There’s a Mike Vincent benefit ride happening next month in the LA area and rather than just post details about it, Brian Tunney decided to interview Mike for the ESPN site. In it, you can learn a little more about his accident and his background in BMX. Details about the event are below:
It’s a 27-mile ride throughout the Los Angeles area, with a raffle and t-shirts being sold afterwards. Last year, the event raised over $2200, and they’re currently seeking donations for this year’s raffle. The event goes down on April 5, 2009 at 12:30 PM. If you’re in the L.A. area, come out and enjoy the ride. And if you’re a company looking to donate prizes towards the raffle, your donations are very welcome.
If you’d like to make a contribution or need additional information on how to donate to the cause, please e-mail nicelyd(at)verizon[dot]net.
And if you’ve got a box of swag you’re looking to donate (t-shirts, bike gear, backpacks, artwork, anything), here’s the mailing address:
Level 3 Post; Attn: Jeff Stroot
2901 W. Alameda Ave.
Burbank, CA 91505
» Gary Young x The Internet
Gary Young and the internet joined forces recently and you can spot him in a couple web vids. Above is a pool riding session with Mike Escamilla and inside the cosmotron (read more link) is a “Dropping in” segment from the Ride site.
» George French Interview / New Wallpaper
Interview up over at ESPN
There’s an interview up of Mr. George French over at the ESPN site. In it, he talks about various products from the G-Sport line.
G-Sport’s roots lie in the classic DIY workshop scenario: rider breaks old parts, uses combo of an engineering mind, burly old lathes, grease and logic to build new long-lasting bike parts, then starts selling these parts, develops more parts, swaps old lathes for computerized CNC set-up, eventually joins Odyssey to innovate more parts, wins a few design awards, and the rest, as they say, is history.
Give it a read and then put some bunnies on your monitor.
