We can’t pass up posting two homegrown ramp shredders blowing it on Canadian BMX trivia. For all the history nerds out there that are answering at home, we’re right there with you. Watch Drew Bezanson and Steve Moxley compete on Canadian BMX Trivia from Metro Jams and Chase Magazine, to John Heaton and Alliance Bike Co. Solid set of questions that will make you feel slightly dated if you can answer most of them.

“Back in the day, Travis Burroughs and I started making videos with the riders around our scene. There were a few different offshoots from the travelling and moving we’ve done, but they’ve mainly been BC centered videos. As a result, we’ve got a ton of old stuff stored up that not too many people have seen. I’ll be uploading everything over the next little while, but I wanted to start off by putting a few of my favorites on Embassy. They feature some household names on the Canadian scene, and the bulk of the footage is from seven or eight years ago.”

Harley Haskett is a name that many Canadian riders have come to know. From helping out with Metro Jams to Ten Pack summer tours and his role as Ten Pack team manager, he has been a part of Canadian BMX for nearly a decade. Like most of us, he has interests outside of riding bikes and one of those is music. His band, Meanwood, recently released their first EP Trials, which is already getting alot of attention in the music world (including mentions from CBC), and recently received an invitation to Canadian Music Fest in Toronto. Read on for more about this Canadian band that you should be listening to.
