ESPN’s got a bike check up with Kiraly. Go here and check it out.

Hello Verde Dealers. You should receive our new 40-page dealer book very soon. It’s in the mail, so please look for it. The Verde Dealer Book is designed to help make your job selling our bikes easier. We think you’ll like it. Any bike shops interested in selling Verde should us a call at (614) 777-0900. Sorry, the Dealer Book is for dealers only.

The crew here at Verde Bikes wishes a fond farewell to AJ the Intern. After 16 weeks AJ has moved on to a paid position delivering pizzas at Papa John’s. We’re confident that AJ is better prepared for life after working here. Thanks AJ.

We’d like to welcome Wade Lajlar to the Verde crew. Wade just joined our flow team, built up a Cartel 2 kit, and sent us this photo of his spandex 2 kit. Wade proudly flies the Canadian flag and will be bouncing all over North America this year.

We just dropped this new Verde team edit. Special thanks to the team for killing it!

The Verde team is in town to talk shop, build up new prototype frames, film, and shoot photos. The crew has been keeping it close to Columbus and hopefully the rain will stay away. That’s Brian Yeagle (one crutch), Mike Ardelean, Dave Thompson, and Kevin Kiraly, plus Will Stroud behind the lens. You can expect another Verde team edit very, very soon.

German Team rider Pierre Hinze built up a new Cartel 2 set up. We’re stoked on the flat red. We’re also stoked on our German distributor’s new website; unitybmx.com. Bike shops in Germany should get their hands on the new Unity catalog ASAP.

Jason Eichhorst just posted this Dave Thompson barspin pic on his blog, From Over Here. Jay posts a ton of amazing blog pics on the reg. Add it to your RSS feed for weekly enjoyment.
