When I got the news that Jordan Aleppo was headed over to Amsterdam on his first ever plane trip to hook up with a good mate of mine Roy Van Kempen and the rest of the team for the Federal Bikes Amsterdam trip, I knew it was an opportunity not to be missed!

I’m sure the majority of you will know Jordan and the antics he gets up to when he’s not riding BMX. If you don’t, then the best way to describe Jordan is a total LAD. I suggest you hit up his Facebook page to see what I mean! It’s always a good source of entertainment with his hilarious status updates & pics. He’s a good guy and has amazing banter as you’ve probably seen in his most recent ‘day in a life video’ with Epic TV but still loves to party and pull birds, you can’t blame him though, why not. You’re only young once!

On the other side of things we have Roy Van Kempen who is a pretty chill dude who has been the running the clothing brand Orange Juice for a few years now. I was actually supposed to hook up with Roy last time I was over in Amsterdam on a lads holiday, but unfortunately we didn’t get the chance to due to us being WAY too smashed to go out one night and Roy’s girlfriend not being very well on the second night. However, I did visit SoulCycle to check out their shop and it was sick!

Right… So we have these two VERY different personalities and two different accounts of how the trip went accompanied with a few pictures from the OJ site and a couple from Roy’s Iphone.
