Area 53

There is a UFO research facility called Area 53. It was formed by a team of researchers with backgrounds in astrophysics, geology, aerospace, and investigative reporting. Area 53 is NOT a government facility. It is used strictly for research purposes (interviews, photo analysis, data collecting, etc.). I’ll have more info later…

         

Interview With Mike Metzger

Mike Metzger at the Colonnade by Mark BrentMike, you’ve been freeriding for several years. How old are you now?
I am 24 now. Still young, but I have been riding mountain bikes enough to see it progress from lycra and water bottles, to full face helmets and flip whips.

What was the first video you starred in? What year was that?
The first video that I had a starring roll in was called “Nine to Five” and I was around 17. My buddy Grant and I made our first trip to Whistler and met the owners of Gamma Light Productions. Grant kind of has a big mouth, so they said that he should walk the walk. They took us to some pretty major sized stunts and we filmed on all of them that day. It was a break though trip for both Grant and myself.  Continue reading ‘Interview With Mike Metzger’

BENT III

About 60 riders from spots throughout the Northwest converged on Snoqualmie on Sunday, May 4 for the BENT III comp.

Ladders, skinnies, drops, swooping berms and fast downhill were the focus of the day. In the first event, riders trying to conquer Shore-style stunts were dinged 10 points for every dab. But in the downhill event, a number of racers bypassed big hits, including several ladder drops, in the interest of shaving seconds off their time. A jump jam on a few of the bigger stunts concluded the comp.

At the end of the day, Matt Patterson, Brian Guse and Trevor Louvier ascended the podium for best overall male rider and Caryn Cantu, Kat Sweet and Deb Hutton were determined the top overall female riders. Damien and Trevor won spots one and two on the jump jam podium, joined by Matt P. Continue reading ‘BENT III’
