I’d like to personally thank Wade for his amazing dedication to MacNeil over the last four years. It’s been a pleasure to not only ride with him, but get to know him as a person and call him a good friend. There’s no beef or anything between us. We just both realized it was time for a switch. Wade has already had a few calls from other companies regarding his riding future. So I’m sure he’ll have something new lined up real soon. All the best man, and thanks again.
Travis is out at Woodward for a few weeks and threw together a new bike just before he left. Alistair’s at Woodward as well and sent over a photo of Travis’ new bike. We’ll have a full bike check soon, but Travis is on a white Young and it looks HOT!
Ali also got the new iPhone and sent over a funny ass video of the high jump contest at Woodward. Check it out after the jump - Read the rest of this entry »
Check out a rad edit from our Eastern Canada Tour! Jeremy Deme from Presence BMX was on the trip filming for Ten Pack and put together a great video. All the MacNeil riders as well as the Ten Pack crew have clips in here and there will be a MacNeil edit up soon with all the stuff that David Lang and I filmed.
There are still a bunch more stops planned for the Ten Pack Re-Session tour this summer, so make sure to check out the Re-Session tour blog for all the info!
While we were in Ottawa we hit an amazing cliff jumping spot thanks to Prashant Gopal. We had a late night the night before and almost didn’t make it out there, but we were so glad we did. This was one of the most fun spots of the whole trip! Check out a bunch of photos courtesy of David Lang!

Harley from Ten Pack just posted a bunch of rad point and shoot photos from our tour. You can check them out on the Ten Pack Re-Session tour blog and make sure to watch the videos he has on there, especially this one!
Here’s the last photo update from our trip. We are going to be going through all our footage and putting together a video from the trip. We got some really awesome clips and can’t wait to get the edit going. The photos in the post are from our last day in Ottawa. We rode street most of the day and despite having a huge crew, we got some good stuff done. Big thanks to everyone that helped us out along the trip as well as everyone that was on the trip. We have a serious amount of content, so don’t be surprised to see some random videos or photos on the site over the next few weeks.
Following the 09 Whitton frame, here’s a photo and spec for the all new 2009 Bibi! This bike is made for riding fast and Bibi has been loving it. Check out some photos of Bibi’s ride on Data BMX and keep an eye out for the full products page update soon!
Day 9 was demo/jam day in Ottawa. The jam was thrown with Joe Mamma’s bike shop and it was rad to see how many kids came out… The local media was out as well, resulting in some really dope newspaper coverage. Ali on the cover of the Ottawa Sun Sunday paper… Definitely stoked!! Casey Stein, the “You’re A Man Now Son” contest winner was putting in work to ‘become a man’ and slid his first hand rail on street! After a nice Mexican dinner, we all went out on the town and had a blast… Check out a bunch of photos and a video after the jump.
