Hey everyone,

Here is some video clips from some Baltimore videos.

These are all of my friends that I ride with around town. they are all good riders. I believe that I am in one of the mix sections, I think I am doing a barspin over a dirt hip thatwe made in the city. I may also be in the credits doing a bunnyhop manual turn grind thing. I am not sure exactly because I watched the DVD version some time ago and was recently told that they were up on google video. But who cares about me.

Like I said these are all good riders and worth checking out.

So here is a link to all the Baltimore video sections.

Thanks,

Mike Forney is still alive? I thought for sure his fear of protecting his melon would eventually do him in. Glad to see he's still riding.

Yeah, he's still riding. He stopped for awhile to increase his beer consumption. but he's back on the bike.

I watched the Chris Johnson section too. He was good friends with my old roomie and I'd ride with those guys every once in a while too. It seemed that there was nothing that Chris wouldn't attempt, which was pretty impressive for an aging fella with multiple knee operations under his belt. He always appeared to be right on the edge of completely losing his shit though, but a hell of a smart guy. We convinced him to ride out of our living room, onto the porch and then try bunnyhop some shrubbery into the front lawn...a very entertaining crash.

Yeah, Chris is nutz.

I don't know if you remember the time when he tried to hop a handrail and hung up some how and pretty much ripped his ear completely off. He rides some crazy trails, the jumps he and Sean Peters rides are like 30-40 foot gaps. Way bigger than I will ride. For a single jump I have attempted but a whole section, no thanks.

I DO remember that. I haven't seen him for a while though. Ran into him outside of Fletchers downtown a few years ago and he said he was recovering from his millionth knee operation. Still impressed with that guy remembering the first time I rode with him at Landsdown and he ripped this line down the snake run, around the bottom bowl and then pulled a HUGE superman over the hip. That was the day that I realized BMX wasn't for me and my weak ass feebles and stupid 180's, were total lamesauce. I kept freaking out trying to land bunnyhop barspins...me = pussy.
