Speaking of cycling… a lot of you know that our good friend and pillar of the Los Angeles cycling community Mike Vincent was hit by a car five months ago, and is on a long road to recovery from severe head injury. Leif Valin just sent me this flyer for a Mike Vincent benefit raffle that’s happening tomorrow at the legendary York Jam in PA.
I can’t say enough about Mike Vincent, his personality, his contributions to not just BMX but bicycling in general… thanks to Hoffman Bikes for donating this autographed Kevin Jones signature frame.
