I think it would be safe to say that Crossley Cycles in Manly QLD, are one of the oldest running & original BMX stores in Australia. I myself first went there back in August of 1988 & have been going there ever since. Richard has done so much for the BMX scene in Brisbane & Australia for that matter & never asks for anything in return. Anyone that knows him, knows what I am talking about. In recent years (over ten actually) Mick Lav has become a very integral part of Crossley’s & pretty much runs the place these days.

They recently built up a custom 2011 Lowcut frame in Wasabi with Polished 2012 parts & it looks the goods. Check it out below & contact Crossley’s if you want to make it yours.

Mark Schneider recently turned 41 years old & he threw a little chilled afternoon session yesterday on his backyard mini ramp. It was followed up by a BBQ as well, good times were had by all. Happy birthday mate.

Our flow rider from Brazil, Valvo recently hit up a pretty nice looking spot. Thanks to Tico for the photos and some words from the mission…

“Leandro told us about those pipes that were parked on The Marginal Road, which is one of the main roads down here in

Sao Paulo. Then, on Saturday, myself, Valvo and Leandro went there to check it out and see if you could ride

there…Fortunately the guy that was looking after the pipes allowed us to ride and we had an amazing time!!!”

Marnold had plenty of solid clips leftover after the DVD was done, here is his web video with those clips, enjoy.

Mick Bayzand advert from RideUS recently, you would have seen the clip of this in his recent Left overs edit.

On our way back home from a 2 week trip here in the USA & Canada. Just spent 3 days up in Vancouver with Dave Osato & his wife Johanna, taking in the sites of Vancouver. It was a really nice weekend for sure. They took us around & showed us some cool stuff, we ate good food & had a few drinks. We even caught up with Jay Miron as well. He is doing well it seems with his absence from BMX.

It was also good to catch up with Blaise & Tammy from Kill Em All Distribution as well.

We just spent the day in LA now & got a hire car to cruise around in. Had to go something American & fun. So enter the Dodge Challenger R/T with it’s 5.7L V8 Hemi. Fun times !!

Which Parts do you go through the most?

I find I go through pedals, grips and tires the fastest.

Describe your Bike setup and how you like your bike to feel…

I like it super solid not making any noise, not too light either or else everything starts to feel sketchy. Also into the feel of taller bars.

What part are you most particular about or do you feel makes the biggest difference on your bike?

Having the wheels true obviously. Angle of the bars make a pretty big difference and that they’re aligned with the front wheel, I don’t know how kids can ride without it being straight. It drives me crazy whenever the headsets creaking or the chains loose too.

Plans for the future?

Keep having fun and continue filming for a little web edit. Also start saving up this winter for a couple trips. I’d love to head down to Cali and check out Europe one of these days.

Big thanks to Clint at Colony, as well as Blaise and Tammy at Kill Em All Distro for hooking me up with the bike.

Yo yo !!

Brock has a couple of really good clips in this mixtape from the guys at Dishonour.

Mick is still out and about travelling around Australia with his girlfriend, here is the latest….

“Hey guys. It’s been great traveling around and I hope you’ve all enjoyed my updates. The trip’s still going but I’m just chillin in Perth at the moment. I just got my bike back. I’ve been hanging out, riding, and filming with some locals. Perth’s got some mad spots, so hopefully we’ll work on an edit here.”
