Shintaro hit us up about the comp he just won in Bangkok, Thailand called Double Control Flat. Shintaro said the local riders were really good and was surprised he won. He is in Bangkok until the 25th of this month when he moves onto another adventure. Thanks to Wasuwat for the photos.

Zac is over in the USA right now, here is a quick update from him

“Costa Mesa is such a good place 5 min ride to Guettlers, 10 min ride to the beach. The weather is so nice. I’ve been rolling around the streets since I was in guettlers neighborhood, when I seen him in the street window. Such a sick 3 nac!! Going to meet up with him tomorrow, which will be sweet. Stayed tuned.”

Thanks to Strictly, Mick takes you through some features of the 2013 Teddy frame then hits up the local park.

The last day of the trip and it was spent down at the new Premier BMX shop in London. The shop has only been open for about 4 months but it looks well established and dialed. Thanks to everyone who came out and hung with us at all the stops, we had a blast!

Another day another dialed bike shop, Crucial BMX in Bristol was large, had some real cool staff and looked the goods. After Crucial we hit up a local vintage park that was fun and filled with Characters.

Today was a whirlwind day, it started off at Alans BMX shop which was a large shop with plenty of cool kids. Then off to Wales to visit DKA Wheels and Deeside park, the park was pretty fun with a dialed bowl. Then it was off to the famous Rampworx, without a doubt the best indoor park I have ever been to. Besides the ridiculous amount of lines to do and ramps to ride the vibe there was awesome! Thanks to everyone who helped us out at the stops.

We hit up Foundation BMX shop which had a good crew behind it and seems well established for only being around for three years. After the shop we hung out with the locals at the park for the afternoon which was crazy seeing how many riders were local there.

That evening we hit up The Arc indoor park, once again a good crew of riders were out which made for a good session along with an after hours session where some serious shit went down. Thanks to everyone that came out.

Simon shot through this photo of him getting everything dialed in for the up and coming Redbull Circle of Balance in Japan.

DRIVING! We seemed to drive all day, stopping at Decoy park for a little bit but after getting a flat on the freeway we didn’t have much time to ride with the locals before we had to haul it to LiferBMX. It was a crazy drive on a road that was barely wide enough for one car let alone two! Sam lost his mirror when we side swiped a campervan! It seemed like we were in the middle of nowhere but as soon as we got to LiferBMX it was an amazing site, so many riders to be at any shop let alone one in such a small community. Lifer is one dialed shop and run by good people who gave us great hospitality.

The first day of the trip after getting over jetlag and we headed out to Hastings to visit Source BMX. This place is dialed and has a crazy bowl setup inside the shop and an even wilder setup in the backyard. After we hung out there it was onto the bowl up the street which got a bit of a work out. Today we head onto Decoy.

Zac got a fresh setup just before he heads off to the USA to hang out with Ryan and visit Vegas! That Midnight Blue colour is hot!

Our New Zealand Boy Liam Marshall shot us through an update about dealing with the winter rainy weather…

A few of us have just started hitting the local indoor which doesn’t have to much to offer as it always has holes in the ramps after the weekend from scooter kids haha. We got a couple of shots from the other night when we had a good session though.

We have a competition coming up which is the New Zealand Xtreme games which is going to be a first for Nz since the old event X-air. I will be competing in the event for the park and possible street. The event will be on the 20-21st of October.

Ryan has some really great clips in this road trip video he went on with the rest of the Monster team.

We are very excited for this and hope to see everyone out at the stops! Don’t forget to #colonybmxuk on Instagram so we can see your photos from hanging out with us all aswell.

A bit of a story from Mr Bayzand about the following photo, well worth the read…

I knew of this ledge from last time I was here so I got the lads to take me there one day when we were riding down town. As is turns out they were doing alot of construction there and it was all fenced of and they had put skate stoppers on the ledge. But this ledge was way to perfect to just say oh well and walk away. We sussed out what tools we would need and planed to come back.

So a few days later I met up with the lads later in the afternoon and we missioned it back to the ledge. We stealth in there and start to get to work, we remove all the normal skate stoppers that were on the ledge but then there was this massive bracket screwed to the end of the ledge with a pole welded to it sticking up at the end. We tried undoing the Allen key bolts but there was no way they were budging we would of broke the Allen key way before we could ever crack the seal of the paint. So our efforts to get the ledge rideable had been shut down again.

I was determined to get this clip so we start hitting it with the peg on the bike but it was way to loud, we try using big rocks, kicking it, anything we could think of but still to no avail. Once again I was shattered. We all sit down and chill thinking “well we tried everything but it’s not going to happen”.I couldn’t sit still as I really wanted this clip so I started walking around the building site just looking for something, anything to use. After a while of hopeless searching I stumbled upon a peace of aluminum pipe, I got so exited and ran back to the ledge. I put the pipe over the pole at the end and started trying to leaver it off it wasn’t really working because the stopper was stronger then the pipe we had.

But then all of a sudden the top weld started to crack we all got real exited and everyone got on the end of the pipe and we eventually ripped the pole right off the brackets it was welded to. It was a miracle. I then cut the wire ties of the fence and managed to move it just out the way. so now to our surprise the ledge was rideable.

At this point we had been there for a while so we quickly set up the cameras and were like “lets get this shit quickly before anything else happens”. I had a couple run ups at the ledge to suss it out and I was ready to go. I give the “yep ready bruv? Lets do this” and take off and just as I was about to hop on the ledge a security guard appears at the bottom of the ledge with this shocked and confused look on his face. My heart dropped, after all this work we finally get it rideable then security rock up that would be right! But we put way to much work in to walk away now. I go back to the run up and say “boys lets just do it” I jump on the ledge, slide it but my foot slipped off at the bottom. I grab my bike and as I run back up the stairs the security guard is trying to stop us but is all so dumbfounded at the same time. I jump back on the ledge, slide it perfect, right off the end with the security guard still standing at the bottom scratching his head trying to process what just happened.

We all run off laughing ecstatic at what just happened, it was a epic mission and a perfect example of why I love BMX and especially street riding so much, the situations and the lengths we go through to get a clip. I hope you enjoyed my story and it inspires you to go out and get shit down and don’t let anything stand in your way. If you want something, make it happen.

Paddy has some banger clips at the end of this jam video hosted by Goods Bmx in Portland.
