HUCKER & DEF PAUL JOIN REDLINE

HUCKER & DEF PAUL JOIN REDLINE
Team Redline welcomes Mike "Hucker" Clark and "Def" Paul Bonner to the new Fuzzy-run Freestyle program. 
Both of these riders have a very unique style and outlook on life. If you ever get a chance to hang out with either of these riders, you are in for a treat. 

Hucker's style of riding is fearless and full of energy - from his learning double backflips in a field all by himself to him trying almost anything you can suggest, while Def Paul is a pure original whose style of riding can only be summed up with one word - unique!  Paul is always down to ride different obstacles and could session a curb all day and make it look fun - all with no chain!
