Sorry for the delay in these but here is episode 2 of "Memory Loss" for those who may have forgotten or possibly never seen this BMX footage before. Ep 2 featuring the one and only Augie Simoncini around the streets of Los Angeles. It was an absolute pleasure to capture these moments and also being there with Gabe Brooks on one of his last sessions with his friends.
Augie Simoncini is a different breed of rider. Full commitment all the time and he's paid the price, too. His most recent fall has cost him the ability to hear in his right ear, but as you'll see, Augie is taking it in stride and will no doubt be back full steam.
Whats Your Story ? Augie Simoncini Augie talks about real life shit in this interview. His Dogs, how he started riding. Meeting Scotty Cramer and Garrett Reynolds at lakewood and how that changed his life. Getting banned from Germany. Not taking an Fire Fighter Job in NYC for Deadline. Getting his teeth fixed in Mexico , Cleaning shit for his Grandfather pidgins Riding for Fiend, Playing Baseball over seas, and Peter pan. Its wild. Enjoy! And remember sharing is caring.
