You know about Spike Jonze and BMX right?

Well that aside, he’s directed a full length feature film. I think its likely to be amazing. The trailer looks cool. So its a kids film……hey I watch kids films when they’re good!

Lots of activity at the trails throughout spring. We’ve had a good time out in the fresh air, digging and making fires.

There’s quite a few Will’s abound in the Bristol scene and 2 of them are called Will Davis. It gets a bit confusing at the trails. You ask Will a question and 3 heads spin. Read more… »

Ladies and Gentlemen I’m stoked to announce that the legend that is Martyn Tambling is now part of the 2&8 team / family! We’ve been a big fan of his riding for years and years but lately we’ve been getting to know him and his wife steph and have to say we’re now even more enthralled. Toby’s been good mates with him for a while now and so it all seemed to make sense. I’ll be putting a profile page up on the site soon but in the meantime check out this amazing movie of Martyn and friends at their local spot. So sick

Welcome aboard Martyn (+ Steph), we’re gonna ave some fun. (live for yesterday init steph!)

Deluxe

Our friend Mark Nobel (formerly of 4130 fame) owns and runs Deluxe. A trails inspired BMX company. I’ve been hearing lots about Deluxe lately. All good. I think they’re on to a great thing. I’ve not seen the whole range yet but the frames I’ve seen are sweet. Clean and trailsy. I was stoked when Mark sent me one of their t-shirts the other day.  I’d take a photo of it but its in the wash cos I’ve worn it out for the last 2 friday nights running.  Haggard. Here’s some pics I stole off their site. Anyway. They update their blog all the time and its always a good read so check it + show your support
