If you’re in the AZ get out there and support The General on his quest for the Championship!

There will be Metal Mulisha FMX demos on both days, with Ox, Fitzpatrick, Danielson and Agee doing the riding. Truck racing and FMX demos…what more could you ask for!?

Also, check out this interview with Deegan on racer.com about his new racing career. Good stuff.

Partin’, booze, babes and selling a ton of shit. That pretty much sums up the ASR trade show for the Metal Mulisha last week. Here’s a few pics from ground zero. Enjoy.

Mayhem Tour with Jimmy Fitzpatrick!

Cropley — Sat, 15 Aug 2009 02:04:57 +0000

I sat down with Jimmy Fitzpatrick on the tour bus to hear how the Rockstar Mayhem Tour has been going for him. Here’s what I got out of him…

Top best things about Mayhem Tour (in no particular order)
- You meet a ton of cool people. The Rockstar guys, cannibal corpse, all that remains, Slayer, etc.
- Seeing the whole country and putting on a good show for fans from allover the place. Fans with Mulisha tats, asking about Lusk every day, all different people rocking Mulisha, and new fans.
- The food at catering is good! They take care of us pretty well…must be because they are feeding Slayer and Marilyn Manson too.
- Backstage watching slayer!
- Shane Trittler getting drunk every day and hopping into a Speedo to announce the shows as Speedo boy. He’s like a 40 year old trapped in an 18 year old body.
- Watching my single friends try to pull chicks.
- Days off in cool cities. We were in New Orleans partyin’ on Bourbon street yesterday!

Top worst things about Mayhem Tour (in no particular order)
- It gets kinda old on the bus every day. On some of the off days we are stuck on the bus all day driving.
- You don’t get a shower everyday and it gets stinky in the bus! The dirty laundry piles up too.
- Missing my own bed. The bunks are really small.
- Sucks when we get windy or rainy weather at stops…I feel bad when people come out to see us and we cant ride for all the fans because of the weather.
- It’s Summer so it’s hot! The East Coast is really muggy.

Do you have a good story you can share?
It was one of our days off and we got pretty drunk one night and me and Chad started going at it. It started with an arm wrestling match.

For those that don’t know, who is Chad?
Chad is one of our buddies who has been around a while, he’s part of the San Clemente crew, and he is helping with all the merchandise sales here on tour. Peebs is a super cool dude and one of our buddies, but also a big boy, he is tough for sure.

So what happened?
So, I don’t know what it was, but we had a couple drinks and one thing led to the next and before we knew it we were in a full on brawl! But not throwing fists. Going through the drywall in the hotel room, slamming into and breaking lamps, we were both a bloody mess! And so far we haven’t heard anything about it, which is really weird because I thought for sure the hotel would have already tried to contact the tour about it, but nothing so far. So that was a lot of fun.

The whole tour has been so much fun, but honestly it has been just a huge blur. We’re at 5 weeks right now and I’m kind of bummed, it’s pretty much over, we’re down to the last couple days. It will be nice to get back home, but at the same time I’m going to miss it. I’m going to miss all the people I’ve met and hopefully I’ll be able to see them somewhere down the line again

There’s so much more we’d love to tell you, but we cant. Maybe on an E True Hollywood story one day!

Here’s Fitz escalator sliding in New Orleans…Peebs gave it a try but tumbled bad!

Temecula Valley Balloon & Wine Festival

Cropley — Thu, 11 Jun 2009 20:29:18 +0000

The Mulisha was out at the Temecula Valley Balloon & Wine Festival last weekend goin’ big on a double ramp-to-ramp setup in their backyard. Tons of fans came out to watch Twitch, Maddo, Potter, Fitzpatrick, Garland, Taka and Wes ride and sign autographs at the LLF and AFMXA (American Freestyle Motocross Association) booth.

Make sure to check out the AFMXA, which just launched. They are working hard to make the sport better and safer for everyone…pros and weekend warriors. Memberships come with some great benefits and will be available to purchase at AFMXA.com soon.

The Iron Circus!

Tedesco — Wed, 03 Jun 2009 17:51:55 +0000

Shane “Speedo Man” Trittler came up with the idea to combine FMX and circus acts to raise money for charity in Santa Clarita, CA. Now don’t get this confused with that little show you see on MTV…it’s completely different. Team Mulisha, featuring Potter, Fitz, and Scummy took on Team Death Riders, consisting of some other guys, in the first ever Iron Circus.

Even though the event had some of the best riders in the world, they had never competed in an event like this before. The teams went head to head in three different challenges where they earned points to determine the winning team. Up first was a capture the flag race. A rider from each team raced head to head in an oval while collecting flags. The first rider to cross the finish with all his flags won. Unfortunately, the other team collected the most points, but that is where that bull shit would stop.

In the second discipline, the teams had to nose wheelie and land on a bike stand. The further the nose wheelie, the more points you received. Scummy cleaned house in this event. He was the only rider to nose wheelie the entire distance and land on the stand. The other team didn’t even come close!

For the final challenge, everyone’s front fender was fitted with a long pole that was used to collect rings in a wheelie contest. This put the nail in the coffin for the other team. They must have been dreaming if they thought they could take down Potter in a wheelie contest! Potter cleaned up, collecting 3 out of 4 rings in both of his attempts. Fitz put in a damn good effort as well.

Team Mulisha crushed the other guys and took home the win at the first Iron Circus. Afterward, both teams put on a demo for the fans. Speaking of the fans, the turn out was amazing! It’s not very often events are held in that area, so everyone was super pumped to have the Mulisha in town!

Going Big for the Troops!

Cropley — Fri, 15 May 2009 16:25:43 +0000

Wow, what a day! We headed out to Camp Pendleton yesterday to hang out and ride some demos for our friends in the Marines. Ox, Taka and Fitz were going big on the ramp-to-ramp in some, at times, windy conditions. But hey, these Marines risk their lives for our country every day, so the guys still went for it. Deegan and Fluffer took turns announcing on the mic, and Twitch even made it in time to ride the last demo of the day. I can’t even remember the last time I saw Twitch ride in a demo, so that was cool to see him come out and show his support for the troops.

Between shows we all piled in trucks and drove out to the air field where they keep all the helicopters. We got to go out on the field and check out some of he latest and greatest in American Military machinery…the AH-1Z Cobra and the UH-1 Huey Helicopters. Two words to describe these things and the guys that pilot them: BAD ASS!

We can’t thank the Marines enough for showing us a little glimpse into their world, being so hospitable and letting us show them what the Metal Mulisha is all about!

Check out the Marine Corps Demo Photo Gallery for a ton of photos from the event.
