The Merritt team rolled through Toronto in July, in typical Merritt fashion. If Eli Taylor, Mike Brennan, Greg Henry, Chijioke Okafo, Joel Fortin, Brandon Begin, Charlie Crumlish and Justin Care aren’t reason enough to watch this, Ryan Navaz put this beauty together so hit play already.

“Merritt American team riders Brandon Begin, Charlie Crumlish and Justin Care hit the streets of Toronto with their Canadian buddies Greg Henry, Eli Taylor, Joel Fortin and ChijIoke Okafo. The crew of shit disturbers crushed spots all over the Greater Toronto Area and produced this bad ass video. Shout out to Toronto ex-mayor Rob Ford for his support! Ya don’t wanna miss this one, EH! ” Merritt

Just when you thought your Friday couldn’t get any better, Business drops it’s trailer for their second full length. The dudes were recently in Montreal filming when Ian had his laptop stolen, and recently his camera equipment. Despite some bad luck, it’s pretty clear that the dudes are going in hard for this DVD. Can’t wait for it to drop!

“This is the trailer for our full length which we’ve been working hard on for 4 years. Featuring our large BMX scene in the maritimes, countless riders have put an incredible amount of work into this and the end product is showing.

Recently we’ve run into some bad luck and lost our editing software and a large amount of camera gear to theft. I just wanted to extend a sincere thank you to anyone that has donated, shared, liked, commented on the GoFundMe page that was made. With your help I’m able to get on my feet and continue/finish making this film of my friends. Thank you.” Ian Fleming

“Proud to present the project that me and Ky have been working on since around this time last year. Ky kill’s it in whenever he’s on his bike, whether there’s a camera pointed at him or not. He also played a big role in editing this one and made sure everything was the way he wanted it down to the finest detail. I hope that you’re all stoked on this as much as we are.” Derek Morgan
