Mike Ardelean runs through the last of his sponsors, talks about Lavar, working for Giant, and more.

Mike runs down his old sponsors and the good times he had while with them.

Ask for Ardelean footage, and ye shall receive. Here Chad Moore, Jim Bauer and Mike all mess around in an LA ditch for Harrison’s camera. Defgrip always does it right, read a bit more about this session here.

Almost a year ago I posted an Ardelean bike check and asked for a new web video. Still no video but here’s a new bike check plus a look at his car. I’ve always been an Ardelean fan (although I liked him more with 4 pegs to be honest) so I’ll keep hoping for that web video!

New edit of the whole Verde team including Brian Yeagle, Kevin Kiraly, Ryan Barrett, Jesse Whaley, Dave Thompson & Mike Ardelean. Kevin Kiraly definitely steals the show, you’ll see what I mean courtesy of the last few clips including a ridiculous barspin to Luc-e. Will Stroud put the whole thing together.

I sent Ardelean 5 questions about the new iPath BMX program, of which he is the team manager of, and he answered them. I was going to write some more but he pretty much filled me in, and I’m sure he wouldn’t mind answering some more in the comments or his Q&A thread if need be. Read on.

I posted Harrison Boyce’s 411 part the other day and you guys seem stoked on it. Here’s Mike Ardelean’s from the same issue, it’s a pretty funny coincidence that Harrison and Mike ended up becoming good friends after this video came out featuring both their sections. Thanks to Defgrip for the link, and Joe Cookie for the upload. I have all the 411 DVD’s and really want to upload some other parts but have no clue how, I’ll try and work on it tonight.

Jim Bauer is on iPath? I heard a while back that they were starting a BMX team and were talking to some legit dudes to be on the team. I heard Mike Ardelean is helping to organize this. Haters, start your engines!

Also I know iPath have been around longer than the Ipod, but I still feel like I’m talking about something Apple makes every time I type the name.

Mike Ardelean’s got a bike check up on Odyssey. A bike check is well and good, but come on Mike, you know we want to see some new footage (or at least I do)!

Ardelean has a pretty cool interview up on Shoe G’s site.
