Gnar Couch Podcast 190: Reece Wallace, Beheadings in Cessnas, I'm Not A Trust Funder 1:38:00

Play Pause

29d ago1:38:00

1:38:00

We love Reece Wallace. Not so much because he rides bikes, but more because he pisses off large corporate entities by posting clips of himself in excavator bucket hot tubs. It's also pretty cool that he bought the wings from a plane in which the pilot was beheaded so he could use them at his homemade bike park. Another cool thing about Reece Wallac…

24d ago1:24:36

1:24:36

There's a reason everyone on the show rides TRP brakes and has long before we knew people who work there. They're powerful, they feel fantastic, and they'll lay down a great skid when needed—just like Boston Rob's "substantial a$$."
