Unleaded are our official retail direct outlet in France & the guys there run a tight ship. Bruno Faucon is our rider over there & kills it on every terrain. This over ice he did here in Aurillac, France was amazing, there is a 10 foot plus drop on the other side of that rail. Bruno scores the splash page of the Unleaded site for moment as seen below.

I have ridden the skatepark at Macksville once before to break the drive from Brisbane to Sydney. It needs your help right now. It is dire need of a re-vamp & if you were to help sign the petition it could very well help the cause. Click here to give your support. Hopefully they can keep the old bowl & add some much needed new ramps.
Click here for the facebook page that has been set up for the cause.

I have known Pete for a few years now with dealings at previous stores he used to manage over the years. He had always talked about doing his own shop one day. Last year he finally put that dream into reality & opened Freeriders Bike Shop in Camira. In a short time he has grown his store into something special catering for all kinds of 2 wheeled fun. He carries our full ranges including our complete bikes. Situated just down the road from the park at Springfield which is always fun to ride. Next time you’re out that way pop in & say g’day.
