Brian Foster and Van Homan Fit the East Coast


What happens when I find a new video featuring Brian Foster and Van Homan that only has 279 views?  I slap it up here, tell you guys you're missing out if you don't watch it, and say lets double that view number on this puppy.  There's even a cameo by Chris Doyle, if you're hesitating.

Brian Foster has been a favorite rider of mine to watch since we were roommates back in this place called the P.O.W. House in about 1992-93.  That's back in the the olden days when we carved our bikes from a maple tree, and had to walk four miles to the skatepark, on our hands, in knee deep snow.  Up hill.  Both ways.

Brian's older brother Alan was a great jumper and also pro racer in those days, but Brian just had that style, even way back then.  Nobody really flows like the Blue Falcon does.  Van Homan just plain tears it up anywhere you put him, from what I've seen.  In this video they flow through the legendary Catty Woods and other East Coast trails, invent new gaps at a skatepark or two, and blaze new lines at FDR.  It's well worth ten minutes of the time you're supposed to be working at your job to check this video out.  And 279 X 2 = 558.  So I want to see 558 views on the video by tomorrow.

Sure, it's doubtful you Fit the model of the pro trails rider like Brian and Van.  Maybe you just don't Fit in.  Maybe your jeans don't Fit anymore.  Maybe you're prone to having Fits when you case the doubles.  We can't help you there.  But if what you want is a Fit bike, Block can handle that one.  Click the link below to check out the full line from Fit Bikes.

Later the same day...  OK, I figured out this video isn't new, I thought Brian had mostly moved on to being a physical therapy doctor.  Still a great video I hadn't seen before...
