The winner for our light hearted fun online comp on my 3 other most favourite things besides my VW Type 3 & my wife, was Mick Cvetkovic from Victoria. He will soon receive in the mail 5 x pairs of LFH grips for his efforts. There really was no correct answer but he guessed pretty good. 1. Bundy. 2. BMX. 3. Colony BMX. Thanks to everyone that entered.
Mick will soon be doing smith’s like this holding onto LFH grips.

It’s also good to see heaps of industry support on this one too. Make sure you support those that support the local scenes around the country. Without them, events like this could not be as good as they are.

Yesterday was the Connections birthday jam which we helped support with a bunch of product. Myself, Liam and Mick along with a bunch of crew headed up to Bendigo for the day. There was a boat load of riders there which was great to see. Ash who is doing the bars over the channel in the deep and steep bowl below owns Connections and is a tough dude, no more then 10 minutes before we shot this photo he was carving around the over vert (in the background) at high speeds when his front wheel went over the top, it was a gnarly crash which gave him a deep cut n his chin (look closely at his face in the photo) but it didn’t stop him shredding!
Don’t forget the Connections BMX jam is on tomorrow… get yourself there if you’re in the area for some good times on your bike.
