I have a soft spot for Koln, Germany. Over the years I have spent a lot of time there riding various contests & having a great time in general. I even lived there for a year back in 2001. I am stoked to see there will be a premiere there for our DVD as well. What better people to have host it as well with the good folks at The People’s Store. In conjunction with Freedom BMX Magazine’s 100 Issue party it is set to be an amazing night. Thanks to all involved including our distro in Germany, Fastpace.

Cooper Brownlee’s turn this time to talk about his experiences filming for the DVD. Not sure how he finds the time to progress with his riding in amongst all his work load but he get’s the job done. His work didn’t stop here with this interview as he filmed & edited this himself.

Once again today we bring two interviews from the team…
Ryan Guettler had probably some of the worst runs of luck injury wise while trying to film for the DVD. All in all though, he still managed to get some good footage captured for his section. Find out what he went through to get his section done in the video below.
Filmed & edited by Ryan Guettler & Bret Trigg.
Yo yo !!
Chris Courtenay also had his fair share of injuries while filming for the DVD but still managed to come through with an impressive section regardless. This being a true showing of his commitment to the project & his love for riding. Check out his thoughts of the whole experience.
Filmed & edited by Stewart Munro.
Yo yo !!
Today we are bringing you two videos in one day…
First up we have Marnold who has put together a really solid section for the DVD. I felt he really came of age with his riding during the course of filming & really started to shine the last year or so. So good to see it unfold before us all. Check out what he went through to get his part done.
Filmed & edited by Cooper Brownlee.

This has been a while coming with Marnold really showing his riding abilities the last year or so filming for the DVD. It is with great pleasure that I announce that he has earned a spot on our pro team from today onwards. Not only is he a great guy but one hell of a rider too. Thanks for all your efforts mate, they are appreciated.
Yo yo !!
Little Black Bike are proud to bring you The Colony DVD premiere for Adelaide. Check the flyer below for details. If you’re in the area make sure you get yourself there. Should be a great night.
Yo yo !!
The second instalment in our series of interviews in conjunction with TCU belongs to Tom Stretton. Tom has one of my personal favourite parts in the DVD & for good reason. No one rides like Tom, I mean no one. Check out what he has to say about his experiences filming for the DVD.
Filmed & edited by Stewart Munro. Once again all riding footage used is B roll & not in the finished product.
Yo yo !!
A very hung over Ryan Guettler sent in a quick report on the premiere night in Greenville last night & his thoughts on the DVD. Read on below…
Last night was epic !! Sorry this is going to be short but I’m so sick from all the alcohol and monster.
The DVD was so sick, Stewart Munro did such a good job editing it.
Last night was crazy every one had a good time the bar even let me bring in the boxing gloves and things got out of control. They let us play BMX DVD’s all night and the drinks didn’t stop. We even got a live band for a bit.
No one is riding today because were all hung over but it was a fun time. Today I’m just chilling but but I’ve re-watched the DVD 8 times already, I love Tom’s section, he is crazy.
Thank you so much for the DVD and letting me be apart of every thing Colony is doing. You rule Clint !! – Ryan.
Yo yo !!
I am very proud to announce that from today, Tom Stretton has earned himself a spot on the pro team with his efforts on the DVD & generally just being a kick ass guy. Thanks for all your work mate, it’s a pleasure to have you on the team & you’re such an important part of Colony.
Yo to !!
Backbone have been good enough to put on a premiere for the DVD this Saturday, make sure you get down there for the event. Thanks guys.
In conjunction with The Come Up we bring you a series of interviews with some of the team about their experiences filming for the DVD.
Starting today with Mick Bayzand there will be a new interview dropped each day over the next week leading up to the 16th of July. Hopefully you will get a bit of an insight into what went into the DVD & what to expect from the guys. The riding footage used in all these interviews is B roll footage that did not make the actual finished product.
Interview filmed & edited by Cooper Brownlee with additional footage filmed by Flagz.
The Colony DVD will be available worldwide from July 16th.

Brock Olive has a promo edit for some fresh new gear from our friends at Dishonour. Some good stuff in this and I am pretty sure the guys filmed it in one day in Brocks home town.
If you’re in the Greenville area in NC, then make sure you get yourself over for the party that Ryan has organised to celebrate our DVD launch. Should be a great time for all with an open bar as well courtesy of Monster Energy & Ryan himself.
