Re: Kane?Cycle Gear grand opening sacramento?
hahaha small world I worked for cycle gear in 05, then left for a higher paying gig, use to get my used nice tires for free from any cyclegear store plus my old employee discount, now that they have all new people who dont know me i get treated like a bitch by them.
*** cyclqueer and the little low balling homos who are affraid to ask for more money from fear of "loosing" an account.
I have a local store up here who used Jason Britton for all there shows now brittons to busy for them or something. then through the grape vine they hear of me, they contact me and try to low ball me, I gave them my price if they have me then great if not....i'll crash their show on my bike and split the squids wiggs they hire to do burnouts.

we do some church/charity shows, but these cheap *** people in tha durty south dont like to pay for ****,they expect you to come out and do 4, fifteen min,shows for like $400 or less even when we got 4 guys on tha team....they dont understand how much it cost to keep these bikes ,up..and not to mention the pain of beating yourself up all day ....and as for cycle gear,,,,,,,,**** em............... ..

nice, gotta love stuntlife drama..
funny while on the subject of working for cyclegears, I too used to work at the store with "good stuff for motorbikes". lol worked at the vegas store summer of '03. swooped up sooo many thrashed plugged tires that summer!
Im looking forward to the show!! I dont really know much about the details of it to tell the truth. Honestly I usually only focus on shows a week or two in advance, and have a couple others between now and then. been contracted for this one for like 2 weeks already, i really havent booked my own shows in awhile so i really cant say much about the specifics of how, when, why etc until i speak with my bookin agent. Didnt even know until tonight when talking with D on the phone that it was even a 2 day show. Thought it was a one dayer.. lol.
either way I am looking forward it. Where is modesto exactly? near the bay area? I like the bay area its cool.
Ill probably bring my streetbike and hopefully can squeeze in some street riding while im there.
Loogie its crazy to have opinions so negative about me even though you've never met me! lol but whatevers hommie.. and BTW... the motor on my pink stunter is still being fixed so I will actually be riding one of my green stuntbikes for this show. so do I gain cool points now cause i wont have any pink?! haha..
to anyone in the area that wants to swing by and say hi your welcome too...
it should be a good time.

Re: Kane?Cycle Gear grand opening sacramento?
Kane, Modesto is where I lost the CLK at the scariest gas station on Earth and Nick was kind enough to drive me all over the place trying to find it again. It was a rough town, but I really enjoyed watching manny practice.
ANYhow. back to the topic not the politics,
I've been suggesting in my little niche of the corporate side that people should expect to pay $5K a day plus per diem for a pro rider, and a percentage of ticket sales when applicable. I wish everyone would just get on board with this and make it the industry standard for a top placing pro rider now. (top placing = top ten in the national ranking)
Per diem includes travel expenses, food and lodging.
The good companies will agree to a coordinated event marketing plan as well.
safety stipulations are paramount!! if you show up at a venue which has agreed by contract to provide a safe environment (with specific protocols, ie barriers etc) for you to stunt and has failed to do so, demand your check for the days work, tell them to get their **** together, and to call your agent. (when applicable)
any time they fail to uphold any part of your performance contract, you get paid for showing up and you should not ride until they make it right.
tape won't stop a bike or an idiot. just my take

it should be a good time. kane, i am mostly positive and accept most stunters regaurdless of race,ethnicity,age or whatever but pink is a girls color or a homosexual color.sorry to diss you most publically but i still remember you from lvx vids and frankly your image was even gayer back then.im sure you are a really cool dude,but i guess i am basing my opinion on old vids and gay paint skeems so im sorry.and yes, you gain cool points rocking a green bike not pink in my book.
