Ryan just sent me a cool email about him going racing… what? Read on below.
I just got done with the ’09 Winter Nationals in Phoenix, AZ. I arrived back from Australia on Monday and Jerry Badders (Vans team manager) asked if I wanted to watch him race in Phoenix on the weekend and then fly to Greenville after.
I was down but as soon as I heard Nasty was going to race I wanted too also. Jerry got me a bike and full face and even went to Vans and got all matching long sleeves Tees. Jerry drove the Vans bus on Thursday and I stayed behind in Cali and rode Sheephills and got my berm and race sprints on then got a flight that night. On Friday we got to the race track, did a few starts but I soon realised I suck at gate starts. I was getting waxed by every man and his dog, even a little girl on a pink bike smoked me off the line!
Once I got going it was smooth racing though. Saturday might of been the funniest and fun day I’ve ever had. I never knew Nasty used to race and he is fast as, jumping the triples and easy won his class. My class was harder for me too win but I came through with a win and I’m pumped as.
Racing is super fun and I’m going to try and go to a lot more races. Thanks to every one who gave me pointers about gate starts and to Jerry, Vans shoes, Monster Energy and Mirra co for getting me a bike, helmet and loads of fun. Dig deep and pedal like you stole it hahahahha.

Our Russian team rider Oleg, (Bibu is his nickname) just sent me this cool web edit he put out recently. It has an artistic feel to it which is refreshing to see. Pretty cool stuff in there & good to see BMX is alive & well over there. Oleg also runs a really cool Russian BMX website, so if you can read Russian check it out here.

The guys over at NYRM have posted a cool promo video up on their blog. A pain the ass format to download but worth the hassle for sure. Featuring some really cool footage of Liam Fahy-Hampton & Zac Miner amongst others. Mick Bayzand even makes an appearance. All edited to a classic Ice Cube song. Well worth checking it out by clicking here now.

Mick Bayzand is a street killer, there is no denying that fact. He takes more hard slams than almost anyone & still gets back up for more.
Mick rules & that one of the reasons we gave him his own signature bars late last year. Check them out in the new Bloody Black limited colour way below. These are available now while stocks last all over the planet.

Our Fantastic Plastic pedals are available now in all good BMX stores near you & have already started to be on many bike shops best sellers lists. We wanted to make a pedal that was light weight, inexpensive & have a good grip. I think we achieved it but make your own decision on that fact. Check them out at a store near you now.

Our Colonial cranks have been out for a while now & have been getting a bit of a following out there, partly due to their simple light weight design. Our cranks feature a 2.5 piece design utilising one bolt to hold them all together. Check out our products section for full details by clicking here.

Zac sent me a quick email to say he has been riding a bit of late but also his foot is still giving him troubles & he may go see a doctor about it, yes please do Zac !! He also sent me this cool little edit of him riding with some mates down in & around around Canberra. BMX how it should always be, fun. Worth a little look I say.
Also here are a couple of older pics of Zac from nahyouritemate courtesy of Nick Gascoine.

On the weekend we had the bush fire benefit jam at Beenleigh & it was a huge day. There were about 800 people hanging out & riding having a good time. Just over $2,500 was raised as well for the benefit which was amazing. Thanks to everyone that came out & supported the cause.
Here are some pics taken by a visiting bmxer from Italy, Fede. Thanks for the pics !!

Unless you have been living under a rock, you must have heard about the devastating bush fires that have caused so much destruction in Victoria, Australia. Sanction BMX are doing their bit towards raising some funds for those in the need & we have supported the cause as well. If you are in the area make sure you attend & dig deep with support.
There are more events like this being planned all over the country with one in Brisbane soon as well, more on that soon.

Jonny Devine, our UK flow team rider sent in this cool little edit of him & some friends at a park escaping the cold weather over there. Look out for Jonny in the red flannel shirt. Some cool riding & good editing to boot. Thanks to Stephan Melling for making the video.

I have been working on this one here for a little while & finally got the first samples the other day. I am very happy with how this first sample came out. Once I get a few of the guys riding it we will see if it works as well as it looks.
Basically, the guard will only fit our hubs & you take off the non-drive side cone nut & replace it with the guard. It acts as your cone nut & a hub guard all in one. This design takes away the need to spread your rear end to fit it all in. Nice & simple.
It’s CNC machined from 7075T6 alloy & will come in all our colours. Expect it out no earlier than August this year. We will let you know how they test over the coming months.
