I dropped into Above All BMX in Miranda in Sydney on Sunday, to have a cup of tea with Julian & to check out his shop. Julian has one of the cleanest looking BMX shops around. If you’re ever in the area you gotta drop in & check it out.
Above All BMX will soon have our entire 2010 range in stock when it arrives in the first week of September.

On the weekend Alex Hiam, Mark Mathews-Frederick & myself travelled up north to Maryborough on a little roadtrip.
First we dropped into Gympie to stretch our legs & rode the park they have there. Not much to ride but was still a fun time. After there we headed to Woodgate as I heard about a concrete mini ramp there. This thing is amazing. So smooth & really good transitions. There were even a bunch of kangaroos hanging out in the field by the ramp. So Aussie.
That night we stayed in Maryborough with all the crew from Brisbane & the Gold Coast that were up for the trails jam the next day. It was a fun night of talking smack & having a few drinks.
The next day was all about the trails. These things are so much fun & a huge shout must go to the locals up there for their amazing efforts on these over the years. I didn’t get any pics of the trails but I am sure some will pop up somewhere soon.
On the way home we dropped in for a quick swim at a local river & I mean a really quick swim. The water was damn freezing !! After our swim we dropped into Nambour to ride the park there. Good times. Nambour is actually has the very first ramp I ever rode way back in 1988.
Getting away from the usual is always a good time & if you’re bored of your local, go get some mates, get in the car & go on a little road trip. You wont regret it.

It’s Ryan’s 26th birthday today. It’s crazy how time goes by so fast. Seems like not that long ago that he was only 7 years old. I have known Ryan since he was that age & have so many cool memories during this time. It’s so good to see him follow his dreams & make something really special out of his riding. Don’t kill me for posting these pics here… thanks for everything mate & enjoy your day !!

Had a fun day of riding yesterday, first met up with Alex & Peta & then headed down to Matt King’s new backyard ramp to have a roll with him & Toby. The session got cut short with some showers so we headed north to Beenleigh for some dry weather. It was a good chilled session & I snapped this pic of Alex with a picture perfect Beenleigh sunset in the background. Gotta love BMX.
