Isn't having Vimeo back great? While Hootsuite has apparently fallen behind the GFW already, Vimeo is still going strong in day three. Which is why I can easily find this little gem of a video, compiled from footage taken during (but not at!) the Kia X Games, by BMX biker Leigh Ramsdell and featuring Brian Tunney.

Sunday BMX Grind Box: Free entry, beer, BBQ and show
Around July of last year, we made an amazing (to me, at least) discovery: Shanghai has a thriving competitive bike scene, and not just during the X Games. BMX bikers from all over - Dongbei, Nanjing, Shenzhen took the train/bus/whatever to meet at the Source for a night of watching bike vids, drinking free beer and doing sick tricks (that's the slang, right?). Now, we get to relive that - but way bigger.
Weekendist: March 26 - March 28
Lots to do this week! In case you missed it, we've already outlined several opportunities to get involved with Earth Hour celebrations as well as enjoy the last couple days of the JUE Festival. Now, for the other stuff:

Did you know Shanghai had a bike scene? Neither did we until we stumbled upon a BMX movie viewing session at urban street style store Source on Saturday. Hosted by hobby site cnbmx.com and bike part supplier ibmxco.com, the Nice Try event brought out bikers from here to Nanjing to Dongbei together for one night.
