Re: We are ****ed!!!!!!!
I work at a mom and pops video rental store; there's only two other stores. the only way we stay in business against blockbuster, netflix etc is our prices are really low and we carry all the B titles that people seem to want. I recently talked the owner into renting out two stunt videos that i play on our televisions when it gets really slow week nights. so far, they people who return the DVDs inquire where to get a copy...dont know where i was going with that...but i thought it was pretty tight i got our store to rent them out, and even cooler that people immediately wanted to know where they can snag some up

Re: We are ****ed!!!!!!!
I dont fell like reading all the posts so forgive me if this was already said.
can't we all just boycott cycle gear all together. Get everyone on stunt life to send them an email saying that we will spread the word nation wide to not buy anything from them because they are not gonna support us. Sure we are a small group of people compared to the rest of the normal bike riders out there but I bet if everyone works on this we can keep a lot of money from going into cycle gears pocket.
ps screw what people think kill the streets

Re: We are ****ed!!!!!!! I think if Cycle Gear offered every member of Stuntlife.com some free coupons, we could put this whole mess to rest already. Not cheesy coupons, but really good ones (i.e. - 15% off any helmet over $300).

They got a call from the corprate office to pull off the shelves all street stunt motorcycle vid's, I guess the store in Arizona was playing a street vid and somebody saw it and complained and wrote a big letter in a local newspaper that they are endorsing illegal activity on the street. The company which is very big decided that they could be at risk of getting sued so they have stopped selling all street vids. This is really ****ed up, I, like lots of other riders make a living making these videos and it's how we afford to do what we do, who knows how many other stores will follow. What can we do to stop this?? Darius
