Photo Gallery: O’Hara Trails – Friday The 13th Jam

April 12, 2018 by Purcey

*Everyone loves these corner jumps that bring you back into the main set. Ryan Serrano laying it Flat.*

On Friday, October 13th, 2017 the locals (@nobikesinthelivingroom) that maintain the O’Hara Trails in Springfield, Pennsylvania hosted a ‘Friday the 13th’ jam to celebrate the most unlucky day of the year with an open invitation to ride the legendary trails. For the locals, the majority of the trail riding season was spent combating weather damage from the winter, several harsh rainfalls including the fallout from Tropical Storm Cindy, and building new lines. After all that hard work, the jam was a perfect opportunity for the locals to enjoy the fruits of their labor with the trail riding community. The combination of the fall weather mixed with smooth running lines kept the jam and the good times going well into the night.

Ride PA BMX contributing photographer Kyle Dipilla was on hand during the event to shoot some photos on our behalf. You can check out the full gallery of photos in hi-res, after the jump. Don’t forget to follow @nobikesinthelivingroom for more from the O’Hara Trails and @dipillaphotography for more photography from Kyle.

Photo Gallery: Kink X Berks Street Jam

March 22, 2018 by Purcey

On Saturday, October 14th, 2017, the Kink BMX crew including Matt Miller, Tony Hamlin, Joe Niranonta, Jake Petruchik, Casey Starling, Breyon Woods (Bdub), and Kink video producer Darryl Tocco rolled through the streets of Philadelphia for a jam co-hosted with the Berks Street BMX Shop. The Kink crew was met with near perfect weather and an anxious crowd of BMX riders ready to throw down. The event made use of an empty parking lot at the John H. Webster Elementary School located across the street from the shop. A makeshift street course was assembled using a number of moveable obstacles including several rails and boxes, a bolted down pole jam, and even a fence for the afternoon. Shout-out to Gene Barclay for shooting the event on our behalf, Steve at Berks Street for constantly working to bring the BMX community in the Philadelphia area together and the Kink crew for always supporting the Philly scene.

Photo Gallery: Creekside Woods Fall Roast

November 10, 2016 by Purcey

On Saturday, November 5th, Andy Celins hosted a Fall Roast back at the Creekside Woods located on the border between Northeast Philadelphia and Bensalem. Andy extended a personal invitation my way and it was a great opportunity to finally check out all the hard work that Andy and the locals have been putting in. Although I only live a few minute drive from the trails, I haven’t paid them a visit in a number of years. I arrived late in the day and only spent about two hours shooting around and talking with everyone in attendance. You can check out a gallery of photos from the Creekside Woods Fall Roast after the jump.
