The new 2020 BMX Magazine just dropped here in Australia & you can check out a preview below. It’s awesome to see Dane Searls on the cover & there is a really touching feature in the pages about him as well.
Colony wise, look out for Brock Olive’s double page advert with our 2012 complete bikes. There is also a feature story on a Focalpoint trip Cooper, Marnold & Zac did in Canberra. Check it !!

This was a bit of an un-planned 10 clips as we just happen to hit up this park one afternoon whilst in Brisbane and Brock got keen. We only had one camera hence why it’s all filmed with fish but Brock produced…
Another wallpaper for you to download, this one is of Marnold back when we were filming for the DVD. The first shot at this hop got pretty loose with him ejecting just as he hit the peak.
Download here for widescreens and here for Standard size screens.
Broc Raiford has been filming for an Odyssey Vision edit the past few days & filming is going well so far. The snapshot below is of Broc having a bit of fun fast planting over one of his mates in downtown Baton Rouge.
Photo thanks to Francis Delapena from Odyssey.

Tim Wood is doing a demo out at Beaudesert on the 14th of January if you’re in the area. He will also have a couple friends with him as well, namely Kyle Baldock & Clint Bensley. So get yourself along there to check out some good riding, meet the guys & for some giveaways from us here at Colony as well.

We have released a bunch of ten clip edits over the past few months, here are a few of my favourites for you guys to have another watch. You can see them all here.
Broc Raiford sent in a quick update of what he has going on so far for 2012.
He has the filmer from Odyssey out his way for a few days to get some footage for a web video, should be good to see what they come up with. He also re-vamped his bike a bit with some fresh new parts & is liking Cooper’s new Twenty Four Seven Bars. Broc has also booked his flights to go to the Toronto BMX Jam in March, should be good times ahead no doubt.

It’s a new year so lets spice things up a bit, the first in a bunch of desktop wallpapers we will be putting together. This one features Valvo whilst he was in Australia, blasting the vert wall at Browns Plains.

Our flow rider from Latvia, Oskars Zajarskis sent through this edit of him riding a cool looking indoor park. The whip to fakie line was great!
I had a good chilled ride with some long time mates at Fairfield park yesterday. What a good way to end out the year & what a mammoth year 2011 has been as well. Seems to have gone so fast with so much stuff happening along the way.
Thanks to everyone that has supported us over the past year, we do appreciate it. Looking forward to a great 2012 ahead & more good times on our bikes that we all love. Happy new year everyone !!

Make sure you are on the Facebook, Tumblr and Twitter pages as we are always updating them to keep things fresh. This photo of Zac has nothing to do with the post but I like it and wanted to share it with you guys.

If you’re into flatland make sure you check out Shane’s online flatland specific store. The only place to get flatland gear in Australia. Newcircle is the name & flatland is the game.. check it.
Shane Badman sent in a quick update of his travels of late.
Left Brisbane about a week ago or so and with my bike in my car I drove down the east coast of Australia taking in a bunch of places along the way. It was good to check out Byron Bay and Coffs Harbour again but with all the rain we’ve been having here the past few weeks unfortunately I couldn’t get out for any decent sessions. So driving on, I went through Sydney, past Canberra and on through the Snowy Mountains to a little country town called Traralgon in eastern Victoria where my girlfriend’s family live. Plan is to have Christmas here, then spend a little time in Melbourne with the local riders before heading on to Adelaide along the Great Ocean Road and then back to Brisbane.
Since I’ve been away I’ve been getting in as much riding as possible and even did a demo yesterday at Toongabbie Primary School, which is an awesome little country town out in country Victoria. Thanks for having me guys and it was awesome to see the kids stoked on BMX and Flatland! More updates soon… Shane.
