A few months ago our UK distro Shiner invited Kevin Kiraly, Will Stroud, and Dave Thompson (above) over for a Verde trip around England. The weather wasn’t the best, but the crew had a great time riding with Toby Forte, Martyn Tambling, Scott Summerhaves, and Will Herrmann. Defgrip gave Will Stroud a camera for their Disposed feature and here’s what was captured. Special thanks to Ride UK for the coverage, Toby Forte, and our UK distributor Shiner for putting together this tour.

Defgrip handed Ten Pack BMX a disposable camera for their Summer Tour and here’s what they captured. Above: Dave T and Kiraly waiting out the weather. Wade Lajlar was on tour repping Verde too.

Kevin Kiraly and Dave Thompson are headed north this week for the Ten Pack Tour. The Verde crew will be on tour July 2nd – 7th for stops in Edmonton, Calgary, and Dawson Creek. For more info visit tenpackbmx.com

As promised, here’s the full edit from the Verde team in Hawaii. Aloha.

The new issue of DIG (#77) just arrived and includes a great 11 page piece on a Verde team trip to Hawaii. Dave Thompson, Kevin Kiraly, Justin Burns, and Brian Yeagle all represent. Rob Dolecki shot some great photos and Verde TM Will Stroud put together this teaser video documenting the trip. Be sure to buy a copy of DIG to see the coverage including the story by Brian Yeagle. Look for a full Hawaii trip edit here on the Verde site next week. Shaka bra.

Dave Thompson, Kevin Kiraly, and Will Stroud returned home to the USA yesterday. The word from Dave is that the UK trip went great and he’s really stoked to have experienced some of England. Will is putting together a quick summary and some more photos. Until then we’d like to say thanks again to Toby Forte (pictured), Martyn Tambling, Scott Summerhaves, Will Herrmann, Ride UK, and of course our distributor Shiner.

Verde TM Will Stroud sent over this pic from the team trip around England. “Here’s a pic from last night’s trail session at Lightinthewoods. Thanks to the locals for letting us ride and film.” That’s Dave T looking stoked. Check back for more updates.

Kevin Kiraly, Will Stroud, and Dave Thompson have landed in London for a Verde road trip across the UK. The crew joins Toby Forte, Martyn Tambling, Scott Summerhaves, and Will Herrmann for seven days of skateparks, bike shops, trails, and street riding. Ride UK photographer Nathan Beddows is along to capture the action. Special thanks to Ride, Toby, and our UK distributor Shiner for putting together this tour. Check back to our blog for more updates from the road.

We’re pleased to announce the newest addition to our am team, Justin Burns. Justin spends quite a bit of time riding with Kiraly, so you can probably expect some good footage of these two to surface soon. Justin, along with Kiraly, Dave Thompson, and Brian Yeagle are headed to Hawaii next week for a little fun in the sun, filming, and a road trip for DIG.
