The man, the myth, the MUNGER!

2009-03-02T04:07:00.001-08:00

Al 'The Munger' cook, takes no bullshit. been in BMX industry for 25 years & most of the time knows what he’s talking about. He’s crazy and smokes too much but where would us stoke riders be with out the Munger.

He’s come out of no where & made an up to date BMX shop that’s got all the good stuff, a sound place to chill & sit & watch some BMX vids. Munger likes things done his OWN way & if it aint perfect then its not good enough for him. He’s blunt, sarcastic & don’t give a damn so if he’s got something to say he will. He was once in a local bike crew called Fat Dyke Bike Crew (FDBC) which I think were originated in the small town of Burslem where ‘street’ really meant street but then that saying "divided we fall, untied we stand" became a fact as the other ride (women) became more important then there BMX so devided they fell. So he spends his days in the shop, being a playa on face book & playing for his metal/psychedelic/progressive band called Rise To Thunder. He once lived on a bus & has been through some tough times in life our munger but shit don’t phase him, he’s always up for a laugh & if your on his good side you’ll get on with him. ‘He aint nobodies bitch’ munger is bound to take the P but its light & not for the weak minded or hearted. The munger has past experience with a lot of things so when he’s on a rant about something he’s done just sit back & listen & take in the wise words of munger.

ALPHA BMX!

Liam Pell & Nathan Barber.
