Swansea Edit.
On the long drive from Melbourne to Brisbane a few weeks back we stopped in at a cool new park in NSW called Swansea.
Just a few clips of Zac Miner, Cooper Brownlee and Liam Zingbergs hitting it before the rain set in.
Filmed by Cooper and Zac, sorry about the extra wind blowout in the audio, the external mic broke the day before and it was super windy…
Royal BMX visit.
Myself, Marnold, Tom and Mick arrived in Perth yesterday and we went down to the local BMX store, Royal BMX and hung out for a few hours. None of us have been over here before and it was definately a treat to hang out with Ben and everyone down at the store. Thanks to everyone who came down, it’s awesome to see another legit BMX store in this country.
Damn weather…
All the boys got into town last night & we’re all itching to go ride but the rain is a real pain. Hanging in the office this morning doing bike maintenance & talking smack. Hopefully it clears up soon.
Don’t forget the Crossley Cycles in store tomorrow at 3pm. See you all there.
Paddy, Liam Z, Zac, Cooper, Mick & Tom.

Rainy Days…
So myself, Mick Bayzand and Liam Zingbergs are in Sydney at the moment trying to film some clips, the weather isn’t on our side but Liam did manage to get some solids at this spot before the rain hit us…
On the road again…
Cooper, Mick & Liam hit the road yesterday on their way from Melbourne to Brisbane via Sydney. Zac will also be meeting up with the guys Sunday morning for the last leg up here. They’re all coming up here to hang for a week then we all head back down to Sydney then Canberra the week after. Should be fun times.
Make sure to come along & say g’day at one of our store appearances scheduled over the next few weeks. They start this Thursday at Crossley Cycles then Friday at Helensvale BMX.
Cooper will be posting updates on our facebook page so make sure you’re a friend of us by clicking here now.
Liam & Mick… breakfast of champions.

Cooper checks in…
Cooper Brownlee took a little four day trip with a couple of friends recently. They went down the south west of Victoria and just over the border of South Australia to Mt Gambier for something a little different. Cooper said they had a super fun time and wanted to thank all the locals they hung out with, thanks !!

Cooper’s new paint job
Cooper Brownlee loves getting the spray can out often to change up his bike’s look & feel. His recent colour scheme is gloss black for something different. Check it out. Cooper has been keeping busy down in Melbourne organising the teams travel plans for next year, should be a good one for sure.

Coops working hard…
Cooper Brownlee has been hard at work on & off the bike of late. His latest issue of Focalpoint magazine just hit stores this past week & he has been very busy working on a 2012 relaunch of the art direction for Colony. Busy times. He still finds time though to get his shred on as in this sequence shot by fellow media mogul, Stewart Munro.
