More Chance



Here's a little edit with Chance Garrison riding (puts in work for Sunday Bikes & Albe's) at an indoor park (Skate Zoo) in Kalamazoo, Michigan on a rainy summer day.

More and more dudes are finally getting well deserved attention coming out of the Mitten. It's good to see.

Wasn't a planned edit, per se, but he lays down moves like a boss. So, enjoy.



P.S. Dear Sunday/Full Factory,

If you have any extra Model C's just laying around, and you feel the urgent need to send one to the Philippines for me to show off here, I would be more than willing to send you my address via e-mail. Just throwin' it out there.

"I'm flawed, unlike you"



So let me break this down for you perfect beautiful people.  I'm the smallest dutch boy you'll ever meet, I'm not perfect, I struggle with addictions, I'm not tall dark n handsome, I don't always fucking smile, I've spent the majority of my life being single, I don't have the biggest dick, I'm generally broke, I am not well educated, I am not an athlete and I don't give a damn about sports because I ride a fucking little kids bike.


So now that the obvious superficial shit is out of the way let me let you know a little about who I really am......

 I am loving, I am loyal, I am a fighter. 

    -I know how to love, be loyal, forgive, show grace/mercy, to be truthful, and to relate because God has taken the time to love, be loyal, forgiving, graceful, merciful, truthful and relatable to me! 
    -I know pain......I know struggle....... I know defeat but I also know victory. I know that even though I may lead a life of struggle and pain it will strengthen me and refine me in Gods Grace and love. I know this because it is a truth I have clinched to during my darkest hours. I know that my struggles will bring perseverance and that when I choose to fight and persevere it will develop my character, and then when my character develops I will have hope. Not just a hope or faith that I've heard about rather one that I know on a very real level because I have struggled with it, fought for it and experienced it! 
  
   I may not be a lot of things, but you know what? I don't give a flying fuck! I am finally learning to be content with who I am and embracing my journey.
   
   "I am on a journey....a journey that is completed only through death....a journey that is continued only with my animalistic urge to be free....my journey is not fast....my journey is slow....my journey is a crawl....but my journey will end....I am free."

Moving, Editing, Dealing With Fucking Jetlag

Hey, all! Just a little update, here. I (RV) am now living in the Philippines. Packed up my bike, camera in the bag, and hauled my ass over here.

While I'm still dealing with the effects of jet lag, and whatever this bronchial infection thing is that I picked up before I left Michigan, I finally managed to finish Pat's edit (after a few software battles that kept me starting over from scratch).

Anyway, here's his new edit, doing things for 42North and Run Jelly Pandas:




Oh, and if anyone lives in the Angeles City area, and knows the spots and would like to show me around, it'd be pretty effin' sweet if you'd do that. Just message me here, or through the Run Jelly Pandas page. Thanks!
