Zac and Tom just finished up a quick Sydney trip filming for the 2020 dvd, both the guys clipped up and had a blast.

Tom and Zac just shot through an update about there current Sydney trip…

“Myself and Zac are down here in Sydney filming for the 2020 DVD and so far its been awesome! Finally conquered a ledge here I’ve wanted to get for a long time and Zac did some of the craziest shit I’ve ever seen down graffiti tunnel! So much fun. Can’t wait for tomorrow. Anyway if you say see us out come say g’day. I’m out of here for the party.”

Chris Courtenay, Tom Stretton, Peta Shepherd & myself are off to Sydney for 5 days to ride & film. Tom will be staying in Sydney & meeting up with Zac Miner while the rest of us including Ryan Guettler will be travelling out to Bathurst for the weekend. Should be good times.

Tom is off to Sydney today for a week to film for the 2020 DVD with Troy Charlesworth. Hopefully the weather holds out for the guys and if you see them around hit up the guys and say hi! I hear Tom has a couple signed copies of the Colony dvd for the first 2 people to ask him to do an hang five.

We have a road trip planned for this week starting in Sydney.

Chris Courtenay, Peta Shepherd, Tom Stretton & myself will meet up with Ryan Guettler in Sydney on Wednesday then ride some of Sydney’s parks on offer. Thursday we will ride a bunch of parks on our way out to Bathurst for Newtons Nation on the weekend. Should be a good few days & the comp at Newtons should be really good as well. Reports from the road no doubt, so check back through out the week.

Yo yo !!

We fired some quick questions at Stretton to see what he has been up to, check it below and look out for more of these to come with the guys.

Last movie you watched…

We Bought a Zoo. Probably one of my favourite movies now!

A musician you are hyped on at the moment…

Been to listening to a whole heap of Ray Charles Classics. Always stoked on Bobby Womack too.

What did you get up to yesterday?

When Riding with Shane Batchler, Yonny Wakefield and Troy Charlesworth. Batcho clipped two bangers for the 20/20 DVD. So Good!

Last time you came off your bike pretty hard…

Last one that springs to mind was at a curve wallride in the valley. Didn’t pull off the wall properly and came straight down bars in stomach. Glad I had Bar ends on.

Websites you have been hitting up of late…

I always check Colony, Diversity Bmx, CrispyStream and Afray.

Last clip you filmed…

Just finished my LUX edit with Troy the same time Batcho got those 2 clips yesterday. Sort of the same as my last clip in the Colony DVD.

Last meal you ate…

Mums Honey Chicken and Fried Rice. So damn good.

Newest part on your bike…

Just put Teddy bars back on my bike and its the best thing ever. Everything feels good again.

Oldest part on your bike…

Would have to be my cranks or my back hub. I put grease in my back hub ages ago to make it quiet and usually they start slipping after a bit but not Colony one!

Last web video you watched…

Liam Zingbergs FTW!

Last SMS you received…

Ummm not any good ones for a while but the last good one was my sister saying they are expecting another baby. Uncle Tom again haha.

Instagram/Twitter… 

Add me to instagram,  @teabaggyballs and get me to more followers than the fake Big Salad haha!

Tom Stretton has been busy… read on below.

Hey guys just a little update on what I’ve been up to for you all.

Over the last month or so I’ve been filming a bunch with Troy Charlesworth for an edit for Lux BMX Store which is turning out really cool. Also been filming little bit for the new 2020 DVD which is so much fun!

Have also been filming an edit with Jack Birtles which I’ve mentioned before but we dont get the chance to get out all the time for it with the weather or just different priorities. He is over in New Zealand at the moment with some of the guys, so we will get straight back into it when he gets back hopefully. Hope your having a good time over there boys!!!

Also I came into the warehouse a little while ago and Clint really hooked me up with some new stuff for my setup. Pretty psyched so I’m going to send through a little bike check in the coming weeks. You’ll see a little photo below of my new Colony Contour rims that I just powder coated a really sweet blue that I’m pretty much in love with haha. The guys at Lux set them up for me with some really cool blue spokes as well, so thanks everyone!

In other news the guys at Lux have just got a new bench lathe and have done a few cool mods to my stem top bolt. Looks so clean but I’ll explain that all in the bike check when I get it done!

Oh and add me on instagram @teabaggyballs hahaa yewwwww Anyway I’m out of here for a ride. PEACE!

Tom Stretton has been keeping busy of late. Read on below to see what he has been up too…

Hey guys. Little update of what i’ve been up to lately. So glad it’s summer, even though it seems like we have only had a few days of sunshine as of late. However any day riding is a good one.

Lately I’ve been riding with alot of different people. Jack Birtles and myself have been working on a little skatepark sort of plaza edit for you guys which should be done real soon. It’s been so much fun filming for it and each time I feel like I’m getting that feeling where you are learning a trick for the first time. So much fun. Plus Jack is filming it so you know at least that will be ridiculously on point!

Also been filming for another quick little edit for Lux BMX Store and Afray with the biggest of salads, Troy Charlesworth. That has been mega fun as well. Can’t wait to get some more clippies for that one.

All in all, I’ve been riding when I can as much as I can and have just been searching for that feeling of finding new ground on your bike! Learning something that you didn’t think you could do before or something that you’ve never seen done before. I love that feeling. Can’t wait to go get on my bike in an hour!!!!!!!!!! Also shout out to all the boys at Morayfield. Wish I could get out there to ride with you guys more often but I’m ages away now 🙁 Except Tinny, I dont know whats up with that guy.

Anyway here’s a couple of photos from out filming with Jack and a little camera shot of filming with Salad. Peace!
