Waking up, and it's sunny! What a surprise. Maybe not, but that sun is welcome, every single day. After the morning rounds on the internet, answering email and social posts we had an appointment with the two Dutchies at the Chase Bank which used to be a gas station. It's where you park to go to Sheep Hills. To get a drink, you now have to cross the road but the parking spots have remained and the homeless are still hanging out there. After checking out Arjan and Tom's tour van they decided to put their bikes together for a morning session at Sheep Hills. At moments like these you wish you had brought your bike but we had not. Unfortunately. Anyway, it was their first time at Sheep so a little lap was done to check out what was rideable and what wasn't.
Being at a new place for the first time is always a bit strange. What is possible, what line can I remember, how far are the jumps, how much speed do I need? For Sheep Hills to be dry in the winter is pretty unique. We've been here when it was flooded, completely, but since it had not rained since February the place was in decent shape. People ride here on the daily we were told, especially towards sunset, but at 10am no SHL's were there. School, work, we get it. After some scouting Arjan and Tom got to work on their first BMX session of the trip. It didn't take long for them to find lines that worked and we took out the camera to snap some shots. With both of them surviving it was time to pack up to hit the next destination.
Demolition riders are well known for going fast and going big, and that memo didn't get missed by Australia's Ben Winters. Massive threes, big grinds, hefty transitions - Ben can do it all.
Unfortunately Let's Roast have had to close their doors, but to celebrate their awesome achievements, we'll be uploading sections from the second DVD - 'Chicago Blues'. First up we've got Ethan Grothe and a whole load of grinds of the street connoisseur variety.
