Squad member Dylan Schmidt has been riding hard over the last few months. Here is what Dylan had to say about the last few weekends.
Hey all thought I would let you know what I’ve been up to lately.
In August I’m heading over to America with Jake Greaves and at the moment we are riding flat out every weekend. I live for the weekends. It’s awesome to ride with someone who is the same age and same riding ability for 9 hours. We keep pushing each other all the time. The last few weeks have been hectic. Last weekend we had an awesome ride at a few parks around Perth. I stopped into Royal BMX for a chitchat with Ben and he convinced me to buy some pegs. I never really rode pegs before as it kind of make my bike feel unbalanced but I decided to smash them on. After hitting rails and ledges I’ve made my choice of running pegs. I snapped my brakes the other day so I also took off my brakes so now there is no slowing down. From bombing hills to games of ride. It’s just go.
This weekend was dope as well. Met up with Jake and went for a street ride in the city. First we hit up “the landing”. After riding for a good hour there and getting a few clips for a little web edit we headed over to the little set up in Victoria Park and had a game of bike. Again we put together a little fun web edit from the game, most of it was mucking around but ended up learning a few tricks. After getting rained on we decided to pack up and head home, the day turned out a good one. I would like to thank the train drivers for the transport around everywhere! Stay tuned for more updates and keep shredddddinnnnn’
