Little late posting these, but here they are. One big ol’ gallery from ABQ/DNV’s Luck of the BRRR Jam back in March. Usually I’d save these for the jam section in The Occasion zine, but I had already edited a bunch for web and thought, “why not?” A little cash, a little booze, and a lot of bikes made for a fine day out in the streets of Denver celebrating St. Patricks day with a whole grip of riders from the Denver scene and beyond.
Always at least one kook out in these streets. Dude seemed to be missing a bicycle though.
The man himself, Mario Carrasco, heating up the jam with cash and ramps.
Clay Mattarocci and Colin Gilmore (next photo) battled it out for the distance contest but Clay eventually came out the distance king.
Colin Gilmore giving it all he’s got for the distance contest. Coming up just a bit short of winner Clay Mattarocci.
Down but not out. Colin ready to give the distance comp another go after barely hanging onto his last attempt.
Meet up spot was ill.
Jason D taking a break from the trails to lock in a manny on the streets.
Danny on rail duty.
Ken Joe! Luck of the BRRR poster boy and best hype man alive.
Inebriated spectating.
Count on Dan Nielsen to throw whips on anything like it’s a box jump.
Danny sees, Danny does.
Dawson Foster utilizing the five block with quick bar down two and whip over the rest (not pictured, whoops).
Devin Burks coming through with the style.
All thanks to Busch Heavy.
Ken Joe showing how to wreck a train real fast. Pulled Jeff Harris right out of the air.
Get 50+ BMXers in one spot you’re bound to get busted at least once.
Lucky Jack Jolley downwhippin’ the spot.
Ed’s got angles. I helped him get up here, but I have no idea how he got down. Sorry Ed!
Oh yea, they blew the horn for us and we cheered like a bunch of five-year-old kids.
Zeus!
A bunch of flips went down on this set up. Jack took it hard on one attempt but came back and flipped it multiple times.
Style is still kickin’ in 2019. James Pocowatchit it evidence of that.
Jason taking it in the streets. Tis but a flesh wound!
Nothin but smiles, even after some wild wash outs on the hill.
Dev putting pegs down this monster before we all got the boot from DPS.
Scotty laying it flat to warm up the set.
Crashing ain’t shit for Jack Jolley.
Jeff Harris using the spot a bit differently than everyone else. Crankflip gap.
Jeffrey G a hard slam, hard enough that Devin had to give him props just for getting back up.
Curb ride to rail hop, Scotty approved.
First couple of tries for the tandem ride didn’t quite work out.
But Scotty and Jeff persevered and rolled away clean.
Ken Joe is a biiiiig fan of tandem bicycle tomfoolery.
Joey Hobart taking the express rail up.
Jon Harris locking in for the long Luc-e.
Dev bringing dirt tricks to the streets.
Ken Joe spent most of this session working the camera as you can see.
This was nuts. Scotty getting loose and precise at the same time.
I didn’t catch the name, but I caught this mower. Anyone doing lawnmowers is good in my book.
Dut keeping the sidelines hazy.
Had to give the roof a solid look before leaving the spot. Sadly the owner showed up before anything could go down.
Yea, you could say people were having fun.
The Untrue boys holding it down for Broomfield.
Many long trains were had on this setup. Even the pile-ups were fun to watch.
Scotty pretty much owned these rails.
Luck of the BRRR getting kids ON the streets.
