Spring is here....
Luna is smiling because she knows it's Spring time.

It looks as if spring has sprung. We are getting busier and busier, contests and jams are coming and going like crazy, the Albe's bus has been used for mini roadtrips every weekend since we've been back from Florida, and we keep getting more and more photos of people riding and showing their support for us. I love this time of year!
Woodville skatepark in the Toledo Oh. area closed down Sunday 4/3/05 for good. Since it was the last weekend we filled the Albe's Bus and headed down their for a few hours Sat night. Here are some of the photos:
Kris K. doing the infamous Woodville Fufanu. The first time i tried this fufanu my bike went over the wall and landed on Scott Towne's parents...i felt bad.
.
Rusty Keys has been seen on his bike more than once in the past few weeks....don't call it a comeback.
Jason Suchan wanted to see how close he could get to the roof without hitting it.
.
After Woodville we went to a small party. C-low was played and Rusty came out $150 or so ahead.

Below are a few photos we received in the past week or so showing Albe's support. If you got anything cool showing that you fight the good fight send it to us at albes@aol.com
Dirty Gary was rumored to be dead but it turns out he just moved to Cali and is doing ok.

Profile Racing's main man Matt Copelan painting his new house (his old house was smashed by a hurricane) while showing his strong Albe's support. Matt is probably one of the best guys in BMX.

Brett (bluebmx from Bikeguide.org) sent us this cool photo of his bars.

In other recent news there was an All Nighter at TRP (www.trpramppark.com) on Friday night and they had a best trick contest. Albe's Own DJ Wild (Dane Wild) won him self $150 smackers. Wanna see some of the stunts he was doing?? click here. What you don't see in the video clip is him 540'ing over the big box. Dane is getting TOO GOOD!
Dane Wild learns about 7.5 tricks a day that the rest of us can't do. Here he shows the money he earned at the TRP All Nighter.

In other news the BMX community is growing around here. Seems 3 major members of the Michigan / Albe's scene will soon be DADS!!! That's right...Scott Towne, Albe's own Mark Filipowicz (Flip), and Team Young's Joe Gall are all going to be popas buy November and that ain't no joke!
This very well could be Joe Gall, Scott Towne, and Flip's babys in about a year!
