The Radavist

BMX legend Taj Mihelich breaks down this wonderful video by Fairdale Bikes:

“Mountain biking is so much more than vertigo-inducing GoPro footage, life-threatening speed, and laser-guided seat posts. I love that my bike carries me away from the noise of the world and out into the peace of the woods. I always feel a bit uncomfortable when I realize I work in marketing (I blame my formative years listening to Bill Hicks), so I have done my best to be sincere in what I do. This is how I really feel on almost every ride. I hope this inspires you to get out into the trees and take some deep breaths.”

Well done, y’all.

For those looking for different holiday gifts, while supporting small, independent publishers and authors look no further. The latest from BMX legend Taj Mihelich is a book of doodles and stories:

“This book is 164 pages of my cartoons and doodles. There is a bunch of bicycle comics (including a number from Sunday Comics with Taj series on Pinkbike), lots of low- brow humor, dad jokes, questionable puns, and some things that are probably only funny to me. There’s a few things I’m actually serious about, but hopefully you can’t tell, and even a few essays. I call it a collection of not-too-artsy-fartsy work I’ve done over the last few years (though, there are a few fart jokes).”

Please note, this is not a children’s book! Head to Taj’s shop to pre-order.
