Big changes in the USA

We have made some big changes in regards to our distribution in the USA.

Starting immediately, Sidewall Distribution will take over exclusive distribution rights to Colony which includes our parts ranges as well as complete bikes. They will not have stock till closer to Christmas or even in the new year but will have our full range on hand. So for any US dealers wanting Colony gear, please contact Sidewall for all your needs.

I would like to publicly thank Joel Gurga & his team at Tip Plus for all their work over the years, it’s been appreciated.

Tom shot me an email about a little mission he took recently…

The other day we went to shoot a new add for Afray. Was heaps of fun from the get go as Mikey hopped out of the car with Raph and a carton of goldies in hand. Was a great recipe for nothing to get done but we got a few tight shots. Was a heaps fun afternoon with Big Brenno, Nitai, Mikey and Raph all coming out for a good time! Just wanted to say thanks heaps to those boys for making my afternoon! I think the ad is for the new 2020 so until then heres a few photos from the day. Just a few of us chillin and one of how you definitely dont want to fall off a ledge haha. She’ll be right mate.

We have a winner… or two

The first correct guesses for our Pete Radivo comp were two minutes apart so we decided to give out two prizes. Both Hayden Vesey & Justin Grey guessed correctly with Pete doing a superman seat grab to disaster. Both these guys will soon receive a package in the mail with some pedals & some grips. Easy as that. Thanks to all those that sent in email entries.

You can check Pete doing his trick in the web video below… it’s not the one in the photo but you get the idea.

Alex Hiam on Rush TV

On November 6th, episode 49 of Rush TV aired here in Australia which featured a little piece on Alex Hiam. You can watch it online by clicking here now. Just skip to 14.35 min to see Alex’s piece of you don’t have the time to watch the entire show. Be quick though as the episode expires online in 6 hours from now.

In other Alex news, he is still off the bike from his broken leg 3 months ago & has been told by the doctor he will have to wait another 3 months till he can ride again. Needless to say the little fella is going crazy with so much time off the bike. Rest assured though he will be back on the bike & shredding once again.

Shane Badman checks in…

Shane Badman has been a busy man… read on below on what he has been up too…

It’s been a pretty hectic past few months from me. First up I spent 17 days in Japan taking it all in. I’ve never heard anyone saying a bad thing about going & after spending a little time there I can totally see why – Japan rules!! Anyone who’s into BMX needs to get across, so much stuff to ride & the riders there are awesome!

After Japan I came back to Australia for a couple days, basically enough time to sort my bike & clothes, then get on another flight to London with a stopover in Kuala Lumpur.

I’d made some plans to spend time with my good friends there including Shintaro Misawa who also rides for Newcircle with me & Mat Dagu who rides for Colony in Malaysia. So after picking me up we all headed to the riding spot where there were about a dozen riders all sessioning really hard. It was about 10pm at night & after not sleeping for 2 days I crashed out by accident – oops haha!!

So after spending a day with everyone in KL, they were kind enough to take me back to the airport where I hopped the plane for London.

London was basically me spending a bit of time riding at the work famous The Green Mile spot at West Norwood in South London. If you ride flatland, this spot is basically one of the best in the world & the crew that rides here are dope!!

My plan was to spend the next couple weeks here riding & hanging out with everyone. But this is the UK in November & with all the rain that was had not as much riding got done but it was still an awesome time for sure.

After leaving London I had another stopover in Kuala Lumpur where the guys met me at the airport again. This time I had been sleeping so I was proper down to ride haha! They got me at 9pm & after stopping off for some food we got to the riding spot just after midnight. As always a tonne of riders were throwing down & it was 6am before we closed the session & all headed home. Damn.

So back in Australia about to enjoy a summer full of riding. Will be going to Melbourne in the beginning of December for shows & then Beijing, China for more shows on their National TV station & talking about the 2 Guinness World Records I broke earlier this year.

And super stoked on the Colony Apprentice complete flatland bike coming out. I heard those cool cats over at Newcircle are getting a stack in so if you’re down with the Ground Work you need to head over there & get yours already!!

Keep an eye for more updates from the road….

Circa Millar

Team rider Paddy Gross sent me over this photo he came across of Clint Millar from what must be a lifetime ago (year 2000 actually) riding the very ramp Paddy grew up riding and learning tricks on in Trier, Germany. It really is a small world when it comes to BMX!

Random fact I found out when working out where Trier was is that it is the oldest city in Germany.

This weekend…

Simon O’Brien checks in…

Simon O’Brien recently did some demos & wrote in about them…

The other day I made the 7 hour trip out to Albury to join with the ‘Showtime FMX’ crew for a sweet demo.
We were there to promote a local club, we took over the car park…..FMX, wakeboarding, harley stunt riding, trials riding and some BMX flatland!

Great day, with a really fun crew and a really well organised demo, was a lot of fun, already looking forward to the next one in January!
