With 2020 in the history books, Ed Huett put together a couple of compilations of footage filmed over the last year. The first video, ‘The Year Of Spots! 2020’, features riding from Ed Huett, Bob Mullins, and myself (Purcey), riding a bunch of spots we managed to get our tires on during the last year. The second video, which you can watch after the jump, is a mix of street riding clips Ed previously uploaded to Instagram. Don’t forget to stop by Ed’s YouTube channel and subscribe for more videos.

Ride PA BMX – Issue Three: Posh Woods High Air Contest
Robert Burns famously wrote, “the best-laid plans of mice and men often go awry.” More than two-hundred years later, these words are a life lesson that never stops proving to be true.
During the production of the third issue of the magazine, we overlooked two pages of content from the Posh Woods High Air Contest article by Tasha Lindemann. As a result, the final two pages of the article did not go to print and were not included in the magazine. After spending hours upon hours going over the pages and proofing the materials, we were gutted to learn of the mistake. Although there are not many options to rectify a print error, we figured it would be best to upload the spreads from the article in their entirety for everyone to enjoy and view as they were intended to be. We apologize for the error and will be putting more safeguards in place to prevent any future mishaps. With that said, you can view the spreads in high resolution after the jump. We hope you enjoy!

Grindworks BMX hosted their annual Pittsburgh Street Jam on Saturday, June 30th, and the video from the event is finally online. The jam was moved from the streets to the Sheraden Skatepark later in the day due to some police interaction, but not before the jam made its way through several of Pittsburgh’s many street spots. There’s a lot of great riding in here and we are proud to have been able to co-sponsor the event along with a long list of other companies. Shout-out to Grindworks for putting on these events and always supporting the Pennsylvania scene. You can read more about the jam after the jump.

The third annual Posh Woods High Air Contest was held this past weekend despite a rainy Labor Day weekend forecast. The jam was pushed from Saturday to Sunday, September 2nd, due to some rain that lasted through Friday night into early Saturday morning. For the locals, Saturday’s postponement provided a last-minute opportunity to fix the damage caused by the storm and get everything running smoothly for the following day.
This year a ‘Best Whip’ contest was also added to the mix with the jam kicking off at 10 am Sunday and the contest portion at 1 pm. In the end, Ever Peacock emerged as the 2018 High Air Champion, clearing over fifteen feet of air on The Butcher Jump as well as taking first in the ‘Best Whip’ contest. Congratulations to all the winners and a huge thank you to Jess Grinager for filming and editing the above video as well as the Posh locals, from whom none of this would be possible without.

While Adem has been recovering from surgery on his ACL, MCL, and meniscus, his “Welcome Edit” is composed of footage that pre-dates his knee injury. The video was filmed and edited by Nick Elison with additional filming provided by Chris Girouard. Congratulations to Adem and we look forward to seeing him back on his bike soon.

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