Sergio Layos | Fly Bikes https://www.chinonthetank.com/2016/03/sergio-layos-fly-bikes/ https://www.chinonthetank.com/2016/03/sergio-layos-fly-bikes/#comments Fri, 11 Mar 2016 16:08:09 +0000 http://www.chinonthetank.com/?p=14938 Sergio Layos has been one of my favorite riders for a long time. In fact, I still ride his signature Pantera frame that I mainly got because it’s his frame. It’s awesome to see this guy is still riding better than every with fast lines and the cleanest brakeless/pegless style.

Watch this video even if you aren’t into BMX. There’s even a couple shots of him on an old motorcycle but I can’t quite tell what bike it is.

I enjoyed watching this.
Especially seeing Derek Girard getting back on a bike after 3 years.

Thursday Skatepark Sessions https://www.chinonthetank.com/2013/12/thursday-skatepark-sessions/ https://www.chinonthetank.com/2013/12/thursday-skatepark-sessions/#comments Thu, 12 Dec 2013 16:29:23 +0000 http://www.chinonthetank.com/?p=11919 I know many of you that come out for the Thursday rides either ride bmx or skate, so now that the weekly rides are on hold till spring, a bunch of us will be heading to a skatepark instead.

Tonight we’re heading to the Franklin Mills park for the 7-9 session. If you’re carpooling there’s room to throw you bmx in the back of my truck. Just let me know.

Seems like there’s a real lack of good bmx indoor parks in the area this year so i’m open to suggestions. Here’s the one’s I wanna hit up:
– Franklin Mills
– Penn Skate
– Shields

Some good videos i’ve seen lately…




And some old ones… In 2002 this video part ruled and still does.

bmx interview – 10 years ago https://www.chinonthetank.com/2011/08/bmx-interview-10-years-ago/ https://www.chinonthetank.com/2011/08/bmx-interview-10-years-ago/#comments Mon, 29 Aug 2011 01:24:46 +0000 http://www.chinonthetank.com/?p=5731 When I was 20, I had a mini interview in Dig BMX magazine.

It had nothing to do with me being good at riding or anything like that… I was just kinda friends with the right people and in the right place at the right time.

Check it out… ha, it’s funny to read this 10 years later. I love the 2nd to last question in the left column.

I actually forgot all about this… look at that toboggan…. boom!

Dave King https://www.chinonthetank.com/2010/08/dave-king/ https://www.chinonthetank.com/2010/08/dave-king/#respond Tue, 17 Aug 2010 17:06:42 +0000 http://www.chinonthetank.com/?p=2127

This is Dave kings Shaft driven 1978 Yamaha 750 triple XS. In between moving from Philly to the Lehigh Valley to be closer to his beloved trails, it took Dave about a year to get the bike to where it is now. It was pretty stock when he first bought it. On a side note Dave is getting married to his long time girlfriend Kerri Kinder. She has the best whiskey tattoo a girl could have and she puts up with Dave’s shit. So she is pretty rad. Going to be a good wedding. If your unfortunate enough to know this son of a bitch, maybe I’ll see you there.

These are Dave’s trail bikes. A 1983 Kawasaki 750 KZ (also shaft driven)  and His FBM Exodus. Pretty Legit setup.
