Mike Hopkins - Day in the Life

Mike lives a short distance away from me and I am fortunate to be able to film with him on a semi-regular basis. We put together this video to show a fairly average day in Mike's world to you.

Enjoy the video inside,

 A typical day for Mike.... he gets a new bike every day and then has to build it and ride it. Awesome, but must get a little boring after a while, I like to just ride my bike lol.


Great video by the way, really enjoyed the way it was filmed and edited.

 That was SofaKing good. BTW, my spirit guide foresees Steve Smith on the podium at Windham.

 It's sick how fast Mike is. You watch the video and think, "Man is he fast" Then you ride with him and you think... "Man am I slow" HAHAHA

 From what I understand they are not Saint Rims just Saint sticks to go on the SHIMANO riders wheel sets

 To my understanding and from the wheelset that I received from Shimano last season, they are DT swiss rims with SAINT decals on them.
