THE NORTHERN EMBASSY

I’m sure alot of you  have been following Simple Session a bit over the weekend. Two Canadians made the trip this year, Dillon Lloyd killed it and ended up missing qualifying by one spot, finishing 25th. Drew Bezanson held down his title winning Simple Session for the third year in a row. Good job boys, making Canada proud!

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.

The first video premiere for our Barcelona dvd, EMBAJADA EN BARCELONA, is happening this Sunday, March 25th at Outer Limit Sports in Charlottetown, PEI (330 University Ave., Charlottetown, P.E.I.). If you’re in PEI this weekend be sure to get to OLS for the jam/good time along with the premiere. Any other shops interested in doing a premiere hit us up (northernembassy@gmail.com) so we can hook up the premiere flyer. Big thanks to OLS and Jon Jamieson for putting this together!
