Josh Dove is a mate and someone I've known for 10+ years. He obviously kills it on a BMX bike, I've described him as a generational talent in BMX before.

Now he's riding for Huffy.

As someone who has spent 30 years riding BMX and well over 20 years working in the BMX industry, I share my thoughts it... and what it means for the world of BMX. 

I'd love to hear your thoughts on the topic. 

Backbone Zone podcast is back after a hiatus and it's being changed up. A lot more focus on why I started the podcast in the first place, to explore ideas and talk abut ideas that perhaps don't get spoken about in BMX as often. 

All done off the cuff while I'm at the trails. This one is all about the authenticity buzzword, and reminding people to remember who they are. 

I'd love to get a comment from you to let me know what you think of this format. And also any thoughts you have on the topic.

This is a topic I've spent a good deal of time thinking about and it's something I wanted to share with you. The downside of getting "good at BMX" and what happens when you stop wanting to learn. 

Hopefully this will provide encouragement to riders at all skill levels, ages and rider types.

At one time, Alex Liiv was one of the most prominent street riders in Australia, traveling the world riding for Metal Bikes and then Bonedeth BMX, filming a plethora of insane street clips and video parts. Since that time, Alex has gone through a period of metamorphosis; changing his focus in BMX to one you may not expect. 

An epic conversation, Alex is a real thinker and it was great to talk to him quite deeply about a lot of subjects (although we only scratched the surface!).
