Morley’s new video

Heres a great new vid of Morley Wilkins on his Peyto. This may be the last as rumor has it that Morley will be riding a frame from another B.C. steel framebuilder in the future.  This isn’t your typical trials vid, heres how Morley describes it: “Warning this video has no taps, no drops, no dirty hookers, and no amazing riding. It’s just about going out messing around and having fun riding anything.”

Thats it thats all.

I am no longer building frames.  I have accepted an engineering position at Fuel Cell Energy in Connecticut. Thanks to all Peyto customers, team riders and all the great people I met in the bike industry and in Victoria and Vancouver, but it is time for me to move on to other things. I think it will be a better use of my energy, time and skill to be directed toward something that will hopefully have larger, more positive impact than high end custom bikes. I will likely keep the website up to date with bike related and non-bike issues that I feel are important and relevent. Never stop riding.

Freeride build complete… finally.

Street Trials Video

Many trials, many styles… The other day I was browsing an old cd and found an old video from 2002. Although my riding style has changed over the years I still think it’s a fun little segment, and it was eventually used in the film island style. With all the new sketchy ideas going on, I am sure I’ll drum up somthing in the near future. So stay tuned.
