Catching Up with…Bobby Piazza Billy Rainford In case you missed in last week’s Frid’Eh Update #51… Week #51 belongs to Pennsylvania rider, Bobby Piazza | Bigwavephoto In 2016, #51 would have belonged to Easton, Pennsylvania’s Bobby Piazza.

25 Days of Christmas | Day 19 | Nihilo Concepts By Billy Rainford When Santa is looking to set his sleigh up with some functional bling, he knows where to go. www.nihiloconcepts.com has exactly what he wants.

25 Days of Christmas | Day 17 | Royal Distributing By Billy Rainford This one time, Santa Claus was finishing his swing through the Southwestern Ontario when he suffered some mechanical problems. Fortunately, he was in the 519 and all he had to do was roll up to Royal Distributing in Guelph and he found everything he needed…and more. While he was there, he decided to have a look around to see what
25 Days of Christmas | Day 16 | Fly Racing Flight Kidney Belt By Billy Rainford Santa Claus has been confused about this one for a while now. Has the human body evolved beyond the use of kidneys? Has something changed inside our guts that now supports them like it never used to, only as far back as the 1990’s? Do riders and racers care less for their bodies’ futures than
