Mr. Green “Live from the Streets” featuring Rime (Jersey Joe) at Art Basel

Posted by Ed on Feb 21, 2012 in Art, Videos | 0 comments

“This episode I made a beat out of footage that our boy Rime
took while he was in Miami for Art Basel. It’s the first time we’ve
done anything like this (used someone else’s footage) and we’re
honored that Rime asked us to do it. This opens up a whole new
world for us and our sampling… the possibilities are endless. -Green

To see a video of Rime painting 50 Characters
set to a Live from the Streets soundtrack…

P.S. Big thanks for Lee Bruno
for capturing all of this madness!

P.S.S. We aren’t sure of the name of the piano
man in the video. If anybody knows his name
or his contact info please let us know.”

"Why did you allow the commissioner to destroy our skate park?"

Here is a video of me asking NYC Parks Commissioner Adrian Benepe a question about the Benjamin Soto skate park on August 9th, 2011 at the Museum of New York City. More about the meeting here.

I guess he didn’t see this video.

Riding Photos Old and New

Posted by Bupsy on Jul 27, 2011 in Featured, Photos | 0 comments

After putting together my China 2011 post I began browsing through some old riding pics reliving memories of BMX sessions past. In a strategic effort to regain some hits for the Group Home Bikes site I’ve decided to share some of the more interesting photos. Some may have been posted on here before, but I’m too lazy to check. So here for your entrainment is a select few of my riding pictures that I deemed worthy of posting on the inter webs. Enjoy.

What better way to start off a post titled “Riding Photos” with a picture of a dog. Rufus posing for the camera while the humans shred PS6.

Alex with a mean mugged hop whip at PS6.

Another hop whip photo but this time by someone way more handsome. TO THE PEDALS BITCH.

Alex is a cat person.

I did this trick about 500 times but Vin Crispino’s greasy pizza fingers couldn’t snap the photo on time.

You know it’s bad when Bayonne has a better skatepark than you do. Thanks Adena.

Speaking of our gone but not forgotten skatepark, here’s a photo of me getting upside down pre-Adena “Fuck your park up” Long got into power. The bulimic dude in the background is Brian Laughner who is currently on his second or third tour in Iraq. Get home safe buddy.

Gary Nilsson with a foot jam toothpick to fakie at lakewood circa 2007-08

Andrew Paino with a tail whip gap at that park with the chess tables.

Augie had to move all the way to Jersey just to learn turndowns.

Riding can be painful at times, especially the older you get. I feel like every time I step on my bike I’m injuring something new… I need more practice.

Roman chillin with his homies in the hood. Peace nigga!

Note to self: Never hand Little Mike the camera. Don’t get me wrong, I love Little Mike with all my heart and soul but the dude just was not made to be filming people.

The year is 2011 and the BMX industry still has not figured an easy way to get this done. Fuck everything about replacing a bottom bracket. Next time I need a new bottom bracket I’m just going to buy a new frame.

Yours truly getting wild at H-Town. I hate going upside down, the longer I ride the closer to the ground I like to stay.

Small panorama from inside the Rape Van. I have spent many hours on the floor of this van worrying that the next lane drift will be my last. I’m sure many of your reading this have experienced the same.

That’s it for today’s photos. Tomorrow I plan on putting up some more China photos as well as doing another one of these posts. There are still many more photos…

Augie's Hell House Bowl

Augie recently did a little interview/edit featuring himself looking a little spicy and Devon Smillie riding his garage bowl. Check out the video below.

Augie may be a big hotshot in bumble fuck New Jersey but Staten is where he got his start. I hope he never forgets that, I know I won’t…

Q: Name? Age? Where you from?
A:Mikey Almodovar, 16, Woodbridge NJ.

Q: How did you get the nickname? “Smallfry”
A:Ive always been the shortest kid in the crew ever since i was little, so my friends gave me the name.

Check out Augie Simoncini’s new venture “Action”.

Action is just some shit thats been around for a while. i didnt invent the word or what it means. it just became some shit that me and the homies started saying not as an insult but to hype eachother up. when ur with your homies riding it got u off ur ass and made utry pulling your shit. when im with the homies partying we are going in and having the time of our lifes. its alll about living your life to the fullest not looking back, kicking it with good people and making life the sickest fucking party ever. Im not trying to make a bike company or any shit like that. i made some tees and stickers for the homies and people that want one. im siked on the idea of it so fuck it maybe other people are too. shout out to all the homies rocking action shirts.
