For those of you who stayed inside all day you may not have noticed the incredible temperature change- it actually feels like Fall now. In order to celebrate this momentous occasion I'll be building a fire in my backyard and eating s'mores (probably with a jacket and a beanie).



In other (more important) news there is an art show this Friday night at Red Star downtown. Hunter Roth is the featured artist... some of you may be wondering what this has to do with BMX. Well, Hunter was the third BMX rider I met in Baton Rouge 6 years ago and he has been a part of the BMX scene here for quite some time. He doesn't get to ride that much anymore but he's 30 years old and still gets on the ramps and pushes himself every few months. Lately he's been focusing on his artwork, running the LSU woodshop and lurking around in the dark bar rooms of Baton Rouge. So if you would like to see some killer Day of the Dead artwork stop by Red Star Friday night.

I also wanted to remind everyone of the contest coming up at Buck Nutty's Skatepark/ranch on Saturday, November 11th. Ooti and the guys in Lafayette have been putting a lot of work into getting some sponsors for the contest and it's really paid off. I heard a rumor that they got like 1,000 pairs of shoes from Etnies to give away. Sounds like a winner!
