Anchorage to Bemidji.......

So from Anchorage to Bemidji is alot futher than you think and its longer than the 3,398 miles. Its an entirely different way of life and it takes a while to get used to it. Going from Anchorage to Bemidji is difficult because Bemidji is much much smaller and there is not much for a young adult to do but go to work and hang out with old people who love birds and flowers. What's a guy to do?

Twich

Jeremy "Twitch" Steinberg came up one point short in the FMX Freestyle at X Games 15.  Steinberg was trying to win the gold medal for his friend and fallen member of the metal militia Jeremy Lusk, who died earlier this year.  Steinberg was edged out of the gold by the Australian rider Blake "Bilko" Williams, who one-uped Steinberg on his final run.

X

So the X Games have been amazing so far, two 3 peats.  Kyle Loza in MotoX Best Trick and Jaime Bestwick in BMX Vert.

First of Many

So...this is my first ever blog and i am happy to say that it is only the first of many more to come.  

Right now the thing on my mind is the X Games, which is only like the biggest event for fans and all who do extreme sports.  If you haven't been watching shame on you but here is what you missed  in MotoX Best trick Kyle Loza took his third straight Gold metal with Blake "Bilko" Williams taking Silver and Todd Potter taking the final position on the podium.  And in the MotoX Best Whip Todd potter took the gold with James Stewart making his X Games debut took the Silver and MotoX veteran Ricky Carmichael taking the Bronze. In MotoX Step Up saw Ricky Carmichael and Ronnie Renner sharing the Gold while Matt Buyten took the Bronze.

In BMX Big Air Kevin Robinson won Gold followed by Chad Kagy winning the Silver medal with Dave Mirra taking the Bronze.  BMX Street Saw Garret Reynolds win the Gold with X Games rookie Ty Morrow getting the silver and leaving Van Homan with the Bronze.  

Well that  was my first blog and i look forward to letting you guys know about whats on my mind and maybe somethings you didn't know before.
