Next Weekend!!

May 28, 2010

Hey Peep’s

Hope everyone has a wicked Bank Holiday weekend. The sun is out so let the good times roll. Now…..Next Weekend. We are having yet another Warehouse Sale in which you can spoil yourself with some absolute bargains without feeling guilty about parting with your hard earned cash. Also, We’re having a little grind time on our fresh grindbox that I built last month. So if you fancy a little ride/skate and maybe treating yourself at the same time (or even if you want to just come and hang out), We’d love to see you.

Cheers

Chris

Random happenings on a Tuesday afternoon

May 26, 2010

Me again,

Yesterday was quite a unique approach to customer relations at Four 27. Myself, Blaine and our 2 work experience guys for the week went on a little mission to the local skatepark armed with a camera, a bag of goodies and a loose plan. After giving a little speech about our intentions, we got going. First, you can only win something if you rock a Four 27 sticker! That went well. Kids love stickers after all. Then it was just a normal day riding. Kids that were pushing their personal limits were my key winners. I’m not into a vast array of circus tricks.I’d rather someone pull something they’ve been trying for a while instead of hucking a trick out of their reach and killing themselves. That’s for the T.V. Some t shirts went to those achievers and a bag went to a guy who sent a stylish transfer over the camel hump driveway box.

This is what Four 27 is all about. No glamour just grassroots! Spending an afternoon out to make someone else’s day.  I think everyone enjoyed the mini random jam. Hopefully, something we can continue doing more often.

BMX Blogging! Me?

Hey there everyone,

I’m Chris and I run the BMX department of Four 27 in Guildford. I’ve been a BMX’er for nearly 14 years now and I’m extremely passionate about it. I pretty much live off of it actually. Whether it’s riding, digging trails, building ramps, helping with comps, youth work, even fixing bikes I’m all for it. I’m lucky enough to have been sponsored a few times and have had some amazing experiences through those little wheels. I’m currently hooked up with Standard Byke Co. through Zeal distro which has always been my dream company to ride for.

So that’s a little about me and what I am all about. Anyone who wants to come chat to me about parts, problems and anything BMX are more than welcome. If I’m not here at the shop, I’ll be down the skatepark.

Go Cycling in London …. exciting !!

May 21, 2010

Four27 meet go cycle for some extreme electrical  riding… this may sound lame but you really need to have a go on these machine’s. We spent the afternoon ruining the other cyclist and mopeds with a ridiculous smug look on our faces and trying to grab some air on the speedbumps ….. great times !!
