name, *Matthew King*
age,*25*
bike ridden,*standard STA*
city your from,*columbus*
which side you grind on, *both sides (left is natural) favorite place
to ride,*new cites, streets, anything fun, and interesting*
rider you respect,* i don't follow pro riders...I have more concern
for my friends pulling a new trick or grind, rather than a person I
don't know...or even really care to know.*
fav bands (top three), Frank Sinatra, Heavy Techno Derived music
(crystle method, The Orb), classic's like Stray Cats, Bruce
Springsteen, Janes Addiction
why you ride *it is a lifestyle choice. Somepeople like the team
effort of baseball, and football. I like to make my own personal
accomplishments. I like to see me and my friends advance around me,
and I get stoked when everybody is amped and doing crazy stuff.
Conmrodery and self-satisfaction(aside from
masterbation) keep me
interested and very young.
Seatpost heigth >>***medium***(tall bloke)
Kevin Cash
Age 22
hailing from Mount Sterling, Ohio; home of absolutely nothing.
Standard STA; all other street bikes are merely imitations.
Fav bands= The Queers, Millencolin, Misfits, and Descendants (ALL)
Grind on the right side
Fav place to ride= For real street: OSU, Springfield, Nashville Tennessee, downtown Columus. Dirt= 888 trails (of course), Coasters, Sand Trails (R.I.P.), really anywhere local. But I'm taking this opportunity to announce my trail riding retirement. I will continue to ride at 888 and build more than ever before.
Seatpost heigth= medium rare
Riders I respect= Pros: Taj, Joe Rich, Leigh Ramsdell, and Doug Aranoff aka Smiley.
Non-pros: Matt for refinding his love for riding, the Westland Schwinn Crew, the other Westside guys, the Lancaster locals, Greg Koenig for being a crazy drunk bastard.
Riders I have little to no respect for: Mike Schroeder, the fat asshole owes me money, and he's a total sell-out, Brennan Brown, he's a cocky conceited dick. Little annoying kids that pester us when were riding. Kids that sit on the landings at the trails, the landings on box jumps, and stand in front of grinds.
Why I ride= I ride because it is when I feel the most at home and comfortable. I've been riding since I was 11, and I'm more stoked on it now than ever before. I kept riding after all of my other friends quit. I've found that I get the most satisfaction out of riding for myself, not to impress others. I've ridden most of my life alone, which molded me that way. But nothing is better than getting a group of ten good friends on a beautiful day and tearing the shit out of a city's streets.
Fav Tricks= X-ups, barspins, feebles, double peg grinds, smith grinds, rails, gaps (when my ankle isn't blown up), any grind I can hit full speed. Manuals, and just cruisin.
