Just wrapped up a few days of touring around with @markmulville we hit as many local trail spots as possible in a 4 day period and unfortunately got rained on on our last day. We still had a blast. If you know Mark then you know he’s a beacon of light with endless positive energy. Keep an eye out for a @profile_racing / @circuit_bmx_shop Trails Edit in the near future.  Here’s a shot from an evening sesh at @wethersfield_woods Thanks to @high_sodium401 for opening up the place for us. #circuitbmx #dudesinthewoodz
@elih401 getting loose on his new Rooster build. Keep an eye out for a pre book on another run of Circuit Frames this Fall/Winter. 📹 @houlesdoingthings #circuitbmx #walkerwoods #woodsman
If you spend a lot of time in the woods alone, you’re going to form some weird friendships with inanimate objects. The most durable dude in the woods has to be your “Barrow Buddy” I’ve been using mine for 15 plus years and he’s still going strong. Everyone needs a good push!! Thanks to Mr Zuppani for bringing my ideas to life. #circuitbmx #dudesinthewoods  We also have some @drop_in_coffee available with buddy to get you stoked for those morning sessions.
