pump tracks are rad

We went up to this guy Shaggy’s house on Friday to ride his pump track. I almost missed out due to a throbbing headache, but it subsided for the most part after work and after chugging a gallon of water. Dehydration is a bitch. This place was so much fun. It was easily the most [...]

am I in the right place?

Well, hello there. I’m not sure if I am in the right place or not. Is this coreymc.com? It’s just been so long since I’ve been here, I’m not sure… Believe it or not, I’m alive. I can’t believe that it’s been about 2 months since my last post!? Ya, I’ve got no excuse, just [...]

mini-vacation [over]

So I have been on an unintentional hiatus. I’ve been way busy at work, trying to ride as much as possible to take advantage of the weather, hang out and just do whatever I can. I’ve been meaning to post something, but I seriously haven’t had anything worth writing about. Until today (well, since Monday [...]

a new [wide] angle

I have been on the hunt for a new lens. I knew that I wanted either a wide angle or a nice telephoto. I think the telephoto probably topped my list, but they are much more expensive. I came across a few of the Sigma 17-35 f/2.8-4 lenses used (they are discontinued), but they were [...]

70-200 equals awesome

This weekend I borrowed the Nikon 70-200 2.8 VR lens from work. Looking at this lens, you wouldn’t ever guess is was worth almost $2,000. It looks like someone threw it in a bucket of bolts and tossed it around for a while. I took some time to clean it up and try to get [...]

feel good video

I have been on a blogging rampage the past two days… I just saw this video on the DIG site. Holy crap. I love watching people ride trails, but there is something about this video that reminds me of the 50 Frames trails video. This is the third part of the Fox Andalucia trip. This [...]

it was hot today

I didn’t do anything today. I spent pretty much my whole day inside, either watching TV with Shauna or playing video games. It was extremely nice out, but was just way too hot. I even tried to sit outside on the deck, but it just felt horrible. I have been kind of bummed about riding [...]

bmx overload part 2

Here are the next group. It was really cool to see all my friends in the good ‘ole Metro Pulse. But I do have to say sorry to Zack, who didn’t get any photos. I really liked the nose-dive 360 from the last post and 1-footed x-up 360 too! The just didn’t quite translate as [...]

bmx overload part 1

This weeks (May 21) issue of Metro Pulse was the bicycling issue. Which for me was a great chance to highlight some bmx since it sort of got left out of the skatepark issue last year. I was so stoked to get to take a ton of pictures! Not that I don’t always enjoy it, [...]

rain? i didn’t notice

Thursday night I decided to head down to the park for a bit. I got to ride for a little while before Mrs. Nature herself decided to piss on our parade! But don’t think for a second that it shut us down. We headed under the bridge were a few of us kept riding. I [...]
