The East Coast Rep tour finished up strong last weekend in Hillsborough, NJ. With some steezy freestyle by Corey & Richie plus plenty of downhill cruising, the only thing missing from this video is the bail leading up to that blood fest! Luckily the reporter from The Beacon didn’t catch that one…
Props to Matt Monte for hosting, thanks to all who came out. East Coast see you next year!

It was a really tough decision (and we mean it this time), as all the entries for Rideaholic were effing hilarious in their own right. In the end, the Utah crew took it for the original song, beer pong acrobatics and Bra Bra Den’s overall capacity for alcohol antics.
First Place: Utah Crew
Second Place: Aachen Connection + Belgian Connection
Third Place: Colorado Crew
Really amazing job everyone, you totally exceeded our expectations on this one. For those that didn’t win, don’t despair! Everyone who submitted will receive a limited edition Rideaholic tshirt, lovingly adorned with the face of the OG rideaholic, DubC Rider.
