BMW has new toys this year
I’m sure you heard all the rumors about Brooklyn Machine Works , and its future since Doc left and hip hop producer Pharrell is involved in BMW's future. There have 5 new bikes to choose from this summer. Two are in production the "Gangsta Track" Bike, and the "Twin Top Tube Cruiser", which you may have seen around town already. But soon they will release the infamous ACL (Anson City Limited) a signature model street bike designed & tested by and for Mr. Wellington himself. Finally he is getting the recognition he deserves. Not to mention a 10th Anniversary Limited Edition BMX, which I remember being their first bmx bike with 10 inches of suspension in the rear. I wonder what ever happened to that thing? And finally a slope-style bike for all your "big, air, tailwhipping, barspinning, backflipping, table topping, hitting on cute chicks at Union Square, one handed, nofooted, 720ing, pissing off XCers as you fly by them, chilling at the banks talking about the old days when biking was real, rock dropping, dirt jumping, hitting the trails on the weekends, freeride" needs. I just know I might have re-think what bikes I’m building this year.
and here's a sneak peek on what the bmx is going to look like.

Thanks
Thanks to those who came out last night to celebrate at the Royale. The place was jam packed with people dancing, drinking and tipping the go-go dancer. And thanks to Shino for the hook up on the official Grindstate.com Bars.
The Clifcat has been found!
Got the word from Gerald which bounced from Tread's Bike Shop in trying to contact the owner(Wally). More on this later!
Stolen Bike Alert!
Today another bike was stolen in the Bronx, it was my former frame, a '06 Yellow Clifcat w/26" wheels, and a DJ1.
Another bike was stolen last week on Johnson and 238th outside a pizza shop. It's one of a kind silver Intense Tazer with a M1 rear-end, boxxer WC up front, silver deemax wheels, xt brakes, mrp chainguide with large drilled holes in the bash plate.
If you see these bikes on the streets, dont forget to trace the thieves with white chalk because they are goners for taking these bikes.
Oh btw call the cops if you do see the bikes, follow them, whatever just do something, imagine if these were yours and what would you do if ours gone stolen…
What’s new at the Racer’s Edge!
I always going to the bike shop even if Im not getting my bike worked on. There's always something cool to check out in personal and make you drool…
