I'll be the first person to say I never thought I would experience something like a wheel implosion! After a full day of bike park riding with my friend Simon at Ride Rock Creek, we decided to pre-ride the pro course - Stampede. A pre-ride is critical on a track like Stampede as it is designed to push riders and their bikes to the limit through massive features and epth-definging terrain. On this particular pre ride lap it was a goal of mine to complete each of the major features one by one until I felt confined on them. When I attempted the tombstone gap (35' long and 15' tall road gap) I came up a touch short and my rear wheel exploded into six different pieces! Watch to the end of the video to see what happened as well as the rest of the day leading up to this insane occurrence! I'm so thankful for my sponsors Tsuga, Bit Bite Bike Co, and Corki Cycles for keeping me and my bike running through some of the gnarliest terrain on the East Coast! If you want to learn more about them I have linked their instagrams below! As always I hope you enjoy the video and if you haven't already, please consider subscribing!!!
