Hey guys. yesterday we all had a great time showing off in front of this newspaper photographer, and today he put us in the paper. Here's the article.

there are a few mistakes, but it's a pretty cool article.

Great article! That's the first time I've seen a newspaper article on uni include a video link! What was the deal with 661 & 7-11 at the beginning? Are you sponsored by both? Anyway cool writeup! I only wish I had just ONE riding buddy in my area. I'll be posting my article next Thursday!

I'm sponsored by 661, and the date that I made the vid on was seven eleven, so I decided to call the vid seven eleven. The photographer was really nice and put my video on the page.

Edit: beat me to it

Ok cool. So how did you get sponsored by sixsixone? Did you contact them or vice-versa? Did they decide to sponsor you by watching one of your vids? And does this mean you basically get discounts when buying stuff? And don't you have to "renew" by sept. for the '08 season?

CKCrowe · 2007-08-11, 08:20 PM

awesome job guys.

Jon Atwell · 2007-08-11, 09:47 PM

nice pics!

teachndad · 2007-08-12, 03:14 AM

That is way cool. The pix are awesome. Taken with an experienced eye. The pix are great exposure for you guys. Nice riding too, on the vid. Those pix captured the sport really well.

Did you get the pix from the photographer on a CD? Sometimes photographers can do that.

Great to have dad and sons together riding! Right ON!

wickedbob · 2007-08-12, 03:29 AM
