Our flow team rider in the UK, Jonny Devine, sent over some pics of his current bike. A Bloody Oath with all our goodies on it. The weather over there is -2 degrees C at the moment so not much riding happening, just playing with the ice. A little bit different to here of late with 38 degrees C on new years day which was spent on the beach, perfect.

Alan Wood’s from Alans BMX in the UK, sent me over an email about Liam Vance’s new bike he has just built up. Liam is hooked up through Alans with Colony & is now on a 2009 Bloody Oath 19.8″ frame.

Jonny sent me a little update from over in the UK today & it seems he had a little mishap with his ankle… see the pic below. He will be back on the bike in no time but still looks rather painful. The weather has gone to shit over there as Jonny put it & said that it’s all just indoor park riding right now. All good though as he has a few to choose from which he will be back riding soon enough. Jonny also just put our new Colonial Cranks & Teddy Bars on his bike from Alans BMX & loves them. Thanks Jonny!

Yo… check out this little edit of Zac Miner that Troy Charlesworth did up. This is made up of his throw away clips from Troy’s new DVD due out this weekend. It’s still got some really good clips in there which shows just how much of a bad ass rider Zac is. You rule mate !!
Bibu, our Colony team rider in Russia, let me know about a little split edit with his friend Vanya & himself. Just some daily riding with nothing special he put it, just what we in Russia call, ‘light street’. Bibu filmed it in three days of riding around just having fun, enjoy.
Yo, here is a random pic that Cooper Brownlee from Focalpoint sent me of Zac at the Halloween jam in Sydney on the weekend. Thanks Coops !! Word on the street is that Zac has some big news popping soon… keep an eye out in the media over the next few weeks is all I am going to say.
Zac has a section in an upcoming new DVD from Troy Charlesworth, called Epic Invasion. The premiere is on Friday the 14th November in Canberra at Zac’s house. If you don’t know where Zac lives then it seems you’re not invited, haha. Gotta be in the know on this one.
Yo yo !!
Spotted this random riding pic of our French team rider, Bruno Faucon up on our French distros site, Unleaded. That park looks amazing & as always Bruno comes through with the goods with his riding. Bruno has been on an Unleaded team trip throughout France the last few days.

Jonny sent me a couple recent pics of him riding an indoor park in the UK. The weather over there is starting to get bad so riding outdoors is not much of an option. Jonny has also just put together a new bike recently & we will have pics up here soon. Looks like the kid in the corner is pretty stoked to see Jonny do a taybo!

A few weeks ago Zac & Liam thought it would be a great idea to go ride Rampfest one afternoon but when they arrived were told the park had been privately booked out for a birthday party. This meant they couldn’t ride, damn. Fortunately, the kid who’s birthday it was was cool enough to let them join the party & they got to session with the crew. Many thanks go out to Tom, the birthday boy, for letting Zac & Liam in on the fun. Greatly appreciated mate.
Due to Liam’s shoulder problem’s right now he has been only able to ride ramps of late & more so the foam & resi at Rampfest. Word has it that tricks like fronties, frontie drop-ins, double backies etc have been happening. Can’t wait to see Liam take those to the streets. He is due for keyhole surgery soon to have his shoulder fixed but will be back before you know it.
In other news Zac learnt flairs in like 3 goes which I guess helped him get 4th place at the recent Spinal Disorder in Melbourne. The boy killed it, good shit.

Is that a chain & sprocket on Liam’s bike? Liam & Zac at the b’day party.

Attila Godi is our flow team rider in Hungary supported in conjunction with Harlee Distributions. He has put together this cool little park edit.

I just got an email from John B that Alex Hiam won the Am class of Spinal Disorder in Melbourne on the weekend. Stoked. Alex killed it from what I am told & truly showed his skills on a bike. I am so very proud of him & gotta thank him for repping Colony & being such a cool kid. You rule Alex!

Alex Hiam was down at Crossley Cycles today building up a new bike, well actually giving his new ride a custom paint job courtesy of Mick Lav. They did a pretty good job & it looks the goods.
Alex rides our 2009 Bloody Oath frame in the special ‘kids’ size. It features a 19.8″ TT with a 13.5″ rear end & weighs in at 4.2lbs. It’s aimed at the younger riders out there that want a high quality, light weight frame that also has the geometry to suit them.
They are shipping to selected countries now & will be available over the coming weeks depending where you live.

AlansBMX in the UK have been flowing Liam Vance some Colony gear for a little while now. The kid is only 11 years old & by the looks of these pics killing it already. Kids these days hey?

As reported myself, Alex Hiam & Peta Shepherd went up north for the weekend, namely for Tuckfest in Rockhampton. A great time was had by all & some riding was done. Both Alex & Peta ended up 3rd in the comp with Alex in pro & Peta in expert. Some great riding was seen from all the locals & there were plenty of riders from the surrounding towns like Mackay & Hervey Bay. It was a good day for sure.
On our travels we also hit up a few other parks along the way & had some sessions. We meet up with two sisters who ride by the names of Tahlia & Natalya Diehm. They both ride Colony Sect frames with Natalya on her Sect frame with many thanks to Chris Courtneay. He gave her the frame he won from the comp in Rocky, damn straight up awesome to see. In fact, everyone from the trip who won some prizes gave them back out to others who needed them more than themselves. So good to see. Alex even made some more fans & was asked for his first autographs… a star in the making for sure.
Calliope is like a mini version of Alex’s favourite park, Kuraby.
The fun little park in Childers.

Oleg Alexsandrov, our boy in Russia, sent me a link to his latest web edit he has floating around cyber space. Some rather impressive moves in there for sure. He also told me about a comp called the Adrenalin Games happening in Moscow September 20th & 21st. If you’re in Moscow then check it out. Click here for more information.
