Just cause I love it…
Re-post… just cause I love it.
About a month ago we spent the evening in Canberra where Zac Miner lives riding Woden park. Zac rode really well and mixed it up and hit a bunch of wild lines throughout the park, I don’t think footage does it justice to how fast he was hitting some of these lines but it was amazing.
Filmed by Daniel Johnson and Cooper Brownlee.

Alex Hiam = broken hand
On only the second day of our Adelaide trip, Alex Hiam took a fall on the city trails, which resulted in him not being able to ride the rest of the trip. We all thought (including Alex) that it was just a sore finger & nothing too serious. Well he went to the doctors today & it turns out he has a broken hand. He will now be in a cast for the next 3 weeks, wishing you a fastest recovery mate.

LBB Instore.
Thanks to everyone that came out yesterday to the instore at Little Black Bike. It was a great turnout and everyone seemed stoked to be there. Thanks to the guys at LBB for the hospitality and the riders for showing their support for Colony, we really appreciate it.
More Adelaide.
Adelaide again and the weather was beautiful. After hitting a couple of spots we ventured to the City jumps which the guys seem to have a ball, Valvo was in his element.
More from Simon O’Brien

Ten Clips giveaway…
Well, I am sorry to say but no one guessed correctly for the Zac Miner Ten Clips give away with the correct number of Allan Border poster appearances of 20.
Some were really tricky & hard to spot but here they all are… 0.12, 0.17, 0.19, 0.29, 0.35, 0.39, 0.41, 0.45, 0.46, 0.49, 0.50, 0.53, 0.57, 1.00, 1.07, 1.08, 1.11, 1.14, 1.26 & 1.30. A couple you can only see the back or the side of the poster but it’s there regardless.
However, we picked 4 people at random & they will all receive The Colony DVD in the mail. Darus Elbon, Cameron Lawrence, Daniel Huggins & Christopher Paterson will all receive a DVD in the mail soon. Thanks again for all that entered.
