Yes a lot of people here ride. Too bad most are swag fags and I dont ride with any of them except a few of my friends. I always see kids on like stock dks or verdes or fits riding around.

Essentially the same up here. A few of the kids like me who ride for fun, then the little kids, the swagfags who ride around because they think it's cool, and then the spoiled group of kids with like brand new cars that their parents bought them even though they can't even get their license and go to Woodward every year so they get insanely good and make fun of anyone who is worse than them in any way.

Yeah sorta. Basically the kids in snap backs, chino or cargo shorts, tank tops/polos/expensive ass t shirts, knee socks, use stupid ass phrases like swag etc. can't do shit but have expensive bikes and a shit attitude.

I see a group of kids ride by on their Next or whatever, and a few kids trying to grind a concrete barrier, but when I head towards them to see if there's a group that rides around here, they haul ass away from me, haha.

There are like 8 of my friends that ride, but only of them actually take it seriously and do it a lot. :/
I just go to the skate park and meet new people.
Why be the same when you can be different?

Yeah a bit. All the kids ride because i try to get people to! BMX has always been popular in Bethany!! Ever since the 80s, kids have been shredding. For a few years it died down, but its making a big comeback!! Which is awesome. We dont have any swagfags here, people are poor. The kids in the next town over are starting to get like Fits and Ambers! Which is awesome in a lot of ways! I dont live too far from PIttsburgh (1hr, 15mins) and that means if i wanted to i could easily get into the trails scene and there are race tracks and skateparks out there too! Plus Chris Doyle and Brian Yeagle are out there and that adds to the scene as well. Lots of awesome flowy park riders out there because of trails!! Not many street dudes unless you go out into Wheeling (30mins) and maybe into Pittsburgh itself!

A lot of people around me think they ride! They take mountain bikes and Walmart bikes off of hillsides and call it BMX. But there are quite a few people starting to take it seriously! I live about 10 minutes from MaximusBikes so we ride in his town a lot and theres about 3 or 4 other people who ride with us too. So it's not immensely popular where I live but i'm fine with it.
