Drop In Contest WINNER!

Published Apr 21, 2005 at 2:09
Months ago I started to see home made versions of Drop In season 3 posters popping up on the forum submitted by random Drop In fans. I thought it was pretty cool and I admired their creativity as more and more showed up so I made a little contest out of it. Well that morphed into a bigger contest - The prize? The winning poster would be printed and signed by the entire Drop In - International Crew in New Zealand and returned to it's creator. We have a winner. Graydon Stead from Sorrento B.C.

DROP IN Episode 13 - BEST OF Season 3

Published Apr 4, 2005 at 4:39
Here we are -- The final DROP IN Episode of season 3. Hope everyone enjoyed the last episode in Vegas at Interbike. Planning the season I would have never guessed that we would actually make it the entire way! Every season we enter into we plan not to return home with the bus. Who would have known that she would make it as far as she did and deliver us all home safely? Amazing. Another thing that's amazing is the "Best-of Season 3" episode! You do not want to miss this! Steal a TV, quit your job, if you always sleep in and miss Drop In - STAY UP ALL NIGHT! You won't regret it.

Vegas?
Well the bus made it as far as the rampage site in Utah so why not just go another 10 hours to hit the biggest event in biking - Interbike in Las Vegas. Episode 12 is technically the last episode of the tour so things kind of get wrapped up for the year in this episode but there's still episode 13 which sums everything up and rounds out season 3.
