In July, eight of us took a trip to explore the open skies and amazing concrete parks of Montana. It was a trip I’d been wanting to make for years, and I was fortunate to share it with some of the best riders in Canada. Legendary Alaskan David Clay also jumped on the trip three days before it started (“I just bought some guns, but I think I can drop $500 on a plane ticket”). We came home with a ton of content and decided to put together a micro-site dedicated to our adventure. We hope to give you a sense of the people we met and places we visited along the way.

We’ll be releasing the site in four parts on Sundays and Wednesdays over the next two weeks. It will have a permanent home here. First up is a gallery of photos from Mat Ridgeway’s disposable camera, along with some of the stories that accompany them.

Andrew Schubert hooked up this dope edit of a trip him and a bunch of buddies took in an RV.

“6 friends, Darcy Peters, Andrew Schubert, Aaron Cheng, Matt Hodgson, Matt Walser, Josh Jean and Guests, Isaac Barnes, Sam Jepson, and James Van De Kamp, pack into a majestic RV and embark on a 10 day roadtrip from Calgary AB, to Vancouver BC and back. Hitting parks and spots along the way, and having a good time every where in between.”

This is what BMX is all about right here!

I think almost everyone reaches some kind of breaking point in their life where they contemplate leaving all that they know behind in search of a simpler life. Of the population that may think this, some people may fantasize about simplifying their life so much as to live out of their van in search of adventures and a stress-free lifestyle. Foster Hunting did just that. After leaving his design job in NYC and packing his belongings in to a van, he set out for the west coast in search of places to surf and camp. The video above shows how easily you can van camp.

He has nothing to do with bikes, but I’m sure the aforementioned video, his photos, and travels are relatable to anyone that has day dreamed about setting off on the road with total freedom. You can follow some of his sites, photos, and projects here:

Last December, 11 of us we’re fortunate enough to make the trip from the great white North that is Canada to Barcelona, Spain. This trip wouldn’t have happened if it weren’t for our boy Dillon Lloyd getting second place in the Hunt and getting a trip to Barcelona as the result. It’s only fair that Dillon start off our Embajada in Barcelona DVD remix edits. If you haven’t already, you can grab a copy of the dvd here for $5. Filmed by Sean Cooke, Luke Santucci and myself (Jeremy Deme)
