A while ago I posted about Jeff Bedard leaving town (which has finally occured after a long stay in Europe), but along with his departure also comes the departure of Marc Boudreau. He is saying goodbye to Ottawa after six years of calling it home and setting a course for Vancouver. Marc is always known for his outspoken attitude, and his willingness to lend a hand and his skills to the scene wherever needed, and he will be missed. Best of luck out west Marc.

Once again… a video… but this time not BMX.
Posted by Landozine - 22/07/10 at 10:07:21 pmHey all. Sorry to shamelessly poach the Capital site to further my own agenda, but one of my short films is in an online festival right now and I’d like all of you to rejoice in the hilariousness of murder by watching it.
Telus’s Shortsnonstop Film Festival is broadcasting shorts under 3 minutes long on Telus’ mobile network as well as online, so this film is gonna get alot of play time. But the higher the video’s rating the more play time it will get, so please when you click on the link, vote for 5 stars!

New Stickers
Posted by Prashant - 20/07/10 at 08:07:08 am
After running out of the previous Capital BMX stickers for a while now, I finally got around to getting some more made. No new design this time, just a re-print of our most popular, and my favourite, design: GREAZY. I also have some Yo Sick Zine stickers printed up too. Both stickers are free and available from me directly, or you can grab them at Joe Mamma while they last.
