Last weekend, I had the chance to go to the grand reopening of The Bicycle Source. That's right, THE BICYCLE SOURCE. It was a blast, Steve Blackie and Danny Hubbard have something special going on down there. They have recaptured the vibe and feel of the original shop but have taken it many levels beyond in a very short period of time. Picture this, a full service BMX shop with an awesome indoor bike park, lounge, bmx historical/vintage bike museum, and bar-b-que all in one spot. I thought we would only be there for a couple hours or so but ended up there for like 6 hours just talking and reuniting with old friends from my childhood. Here are some pics. They don't do the party or The Source justice but man I want to talk to my wife about moving to the OC just to be closer to the shop. So much energy there, if Kramer went he would say it's "The place to be". Can't wait for the next event on May 21st. Chris Day of Flat Clothing is having a flatland jam there. Look out! Has to be dope! LOTLIFEBMX.BLOGSPOT.COM will be an official sponsor and stay tuned for lots of coverage. Full story, photos, and possible video footage to come.
