Pete Radivo is always having fun on or off the bike. Here are some iPhone pics he just sent me from a few minutes ago. Pete in a Pokemon Pikachu costume doing his thing… good times I am sure.

Bruno Faucon emailed us to say he unfortunately broke his 4th finger & will have surgery on April 12th. He will be out for 6 weeks, rest up mate.

Yo yo !!

We have a new addition to the flow team with Bobbie Altiser joining the ranks for us over in the USA.

I am pretty stoked myself to have another fellow front brake rider on the team. Bobbie always have a fresh approach with his riding which is always welcome. He is moving to Long Beach in the next few weeks so there should be a lot more of his riding getting seen very soon. We will also have a full bike check in the next few days, so check back for that soon.

Once again, welcome to the team mate !!

It’s late here Saturday night / Sunday morning but have been watching the live feed from Simple Session in Estonia. Both Chris & Anton rode well in what has to be the worlds toughest comp. Oskars Zajarskis also rode in the comp & repped for us, thanks guys. Should be good to see what happens in the finals.

Update: Anton actually crashed in his runs and has a fracture in his 12 vertebra. He has to return to the UK now and will be off the bike for 2 months. Please rest up mate.

Simon sent in a quick update about how he has been riding pretty hard lately and shooting photos with Michael Harris. Always good to see a fresh photo of Simon doing something I can’t comprehend.

Filmed during a quick session before he moved back to Latvia, Oskars Zajarskis put together this video at The Alley skatepark in the UK. Doing it for Par BMX in Latvia.

Peta Shepherd just sent in a quick email to say she won the girls park event in Toronto. Congrats Peta !! Now she is off to go snowboarding for a few days.

Yo yo !!

Peta Shepherd is over in Canada for the Toronto BMX Jam & is having a ball. She also got to meet up with Broc Raiford whilst he was at JoyRide150 as well. She sent in this quick little update, read on below…

Just a little update on my Canada trip. I’m having the best time, everyone’s really awesome over there. I’ve been riding joyride150 a lot, probably the best park I’ve ever ridden, and it’s bikes only, No scooters ever!! I had prelims yesterday for Toronto Jam and managed to qualify first. Today I got asked to enter the girls freestyle mountain bike comp, so I did. I’ve never even ridden one before, but somehow got first haha. Won $175. Pretty stoked with that. Tomorrow I have finals for BMX and maybe another MTB bike comp. – Peta.

Peta & Broc.

Peta cashed up after winning the MTB comp & 2nd place getter, Trish.

It’s snowing over there right now.

Yo yo !!

Brandon Van Dulken joined our team a few months ago now & has been killing it up in Canada for us. He got together with Ben Jenacek to film this welcome edit over 2 days at the Joyride 150 park. Thanks also go out to Kill Em All Distribution for helping out Brandon & repping Colony for us in Canada. Colony is now available in more dealers across Canada than ever before. Check them all out here now.

Valvo has a video interview from his trip in Australia late last year. Check it out, some really good riding from Valvo on a small sample of the many parks we have on offer. Just get your translation on if you wanna know what he is saying. Filmed & edited by Chris Lembo.

Yo yo !!

From what I  hear, Simon killed it at Down Underground coming first and winning best trick/combo… For some more coverage from the event, check out the Nerve People web site.

Liam recently got back from a three week trip in the USA…

“Hey guys me again, just a quick update. I just recently returned to OZ after a long stay in Cali. I spent all my time in long beach staying at the OSS house with my boy Tim, I could not believe how many spots there were, it was a pleasant change from what I’m used to haha. We met lots of awesome people who made the stay extra fun! As Millar would say I now have the travel bug as I’m itching to get back on a plane and do it all again thanks to Adam and everyone else who made our stay so pleasant. I’m off to Brisbane in a week or two so if you see me out and about come say hey. Until then, stay trill.”

Pete Radivo rules. He has been one of my all time favourite Australian riders for as long as I can remember. After all these years he still kills it with the most dialled tech & burly style. He can throw down at anytime, sober or not. Pete loves BMX & loves a good time with mates with a drink or twenty-two.

Pete sent in a quick update. Read on below to see what Pete got up too last weekend…

Myself and Little scotty went on a spur of the moment Canberra trip on Saturday arvo, got there Sunday lunchtime, haha. Went to Belco’s new park but was well packed out. Hit up Woden park for a 15 min sesh before the the rain hit. So we hit the pub instead. Sunday I hooked up with Cam White for a roll at Gungahlin skatepark. Fun sesh there. Got a couple of pics then drove home… Good weekend I say 🙂 – Pete.

This was used in an advert last year but it’s worthy of a desktop background aswell! Download here for Widescreen annd Standard screens here.

Being winter over in Sweden there’s not much riding going on for Jens but his brother Mats scored a couple photos in a mag recently of Jens, looking the goods.

The Selftitled DVD was released in 2006 & features O.G. Colony team riders, Ryan Guettler, Nick Richardson, Kenny Raggett, Haimona Ngata, Pete Radivo & myself along with a large crew of riders.

It took us 3 years to film for this & it took me 9 months of editing. Crazy thing is after 9 months of editing, my hard drive crashed & we nearly lost the whole damn thing. After an epic 12 hour straight drive from Brisbane to Sydney, had Matt Holmes save the day with his Mac savvy knowledge. Thanks Matt !!

This one for me, is full some amazing memories & a chapter in my life that I will never forget. Good times for sure.

Yo yo !!
