Joesph Padilla of La Puente, California, took this one in spite of his bad grammar for a small extra tidbit he got from going to the Redline site and dropping that this was indeed the first Redline ever on the cover of Ride. It’s hard to believe, but apparently very true. Odd!
Here’s Joesph’s reply, and our lovely receptionist already sent a huge box of the most random BMX and non-BMX stuff he’ll ever recieve:
“Hucker WAS DOING huge wallride and that was Redline’s First RIDE COVER and the manager is Tim Hall and befor he joind the last time he had rode one of there bikes was in 1988 and he lives in huntington beach and sheep hiils relly kool plase been there its relly kool after it rains but suxs to and always geting rain but thats better i gess you can make it the way you like it.”

I spaced on rapping up the last contest and it went a little wild with over 250 comments…choosing a winner for that one was rough, but I ended up handing the hefty box of random stuff over to Brandon Wiggins for his concise and funny caption.
Out with the old and onto the new gig. I just shot this photo of Mike “Hucker” Clark yesterday while working on a small article for the June issue of Ride. The bike he’s handlebar gliding [edit for the overly sensitive: it's a handlebar ride, not glide] isn’t just some random shitty mountain bike, either, it’s one of the bikes he was actually riding…or should I say, actually destroying. Should be a pretty odd-ball article. I was going to ask what you guys thought the premise of the article would be about, but I think we’ll just go with a quiz. The real answers don’t matter 100 percent, but it’s good to at least attempt to get them right… Post your answers in the comments below. Remember to fill in your e-mail address! Winner will be chosen at random.
- What trick was Hucker doing on his recent Ride cover?
- Who is the Redline team manager?
- What sunny Southern California city does Hucker live in and what staple-point trails are located there?
Check below for what you can win this time around. Keep in mind, what I have posted up is just a small sample of the random crap you’re sure to get…
An etnies backpack of some sorts. I think it’s from year’s past, so I can’t find a photo of it online, but it’s similar to this one, except red.
Eastern Deciptikon stem. I like to call this thing the technology stem, because it looks like a hybrid of some sort. It’s fancy.
Premium’s Refuse/Resist foldable tire. You only get one, though, not two.
Got another Snafu Love Seat up for grabs…this time it’s the third one in, the plaid-ish white on up there.
