Yesterday the nation wide BMX for Floods jams went down to raise funds for the flood appeal. The Beenleigh leg went down really well even with the 37 plus degree heat we had to endure. Not sure exactly on the amount raised but I believe it was well over $2,000 so far. Thanks too all that came out & made it a huge success.

Guettler got everyone to make a bike pile after the day finished & here is the result.

The first correct guesses for our Pete Radivo comp were two minutes apart so we decided to give out two prizes. Both Hayden Vesey & Justin Grey guessed correctly with Pete doing a superman seat grab to disaster. Both these guys will soon receive a package in the mail with some pedals & some grips. Easy as that. Thanks to all those that sent in email entries.

You can check Pete doing his trick in the web video below… it’s not the one in the photo but you get the idea.
