Shuhei sent through some raw clips he recently filmed. Loved the ice to 180 on the rock…

Hey Guys,

I am finally back riding!! I’m feeling really good on my bike, I feel like I never even stopped riding and have been surrounded by nothing but good vibes, thanks to my friends for making riding so fun.

I have been testing out my new Colony signature bars, forks and frame. So stoked with how it all feels, Super strong and responsive.

I have been filming a lot for some new projects coming soon. So psyched with the clips.

My wrist is still not 100%, and I can’t ride two days in a row yet. It’s just way to sore and blown out the next day. It’s all part of the recovery the docs say. research TFCC repair if your interested in why it takes so long. So the days my wrist is to sore to ride, I have been keeping busy and going out and shooting a lot of photos and exploring, making the most of a bad situation.. Photography helps to see the good in everything. Photography Insta to see more pics: limel1ght

Fox flew me to Melbourne just recently to shoot the Winter catalogue, and film some clips for an upcoming project. I was there for 4 days. We did a “Alex Hiam” appearance at the Shed indoor skatepark as well which was a really good turn out. So many BMXers and a huge scene there. It amazing me how many people turned up to ride.

the next month I will be riding everyday, filming and getting ready for the year of travels ahead. I can not wait.

Thanks for the support, check my Instagram for some fresh new riding videos. @alexhiam

Yo guys!

Just wrapping up a little camping/riding trip down the coast and central Oregon. So awesome how inexpensive it is to cruise around and see all of this cool stuff and yet we’re only just breaking the surface. Great to break the gloomy Vancouver routine with some sunshine. Great times!

Last July was my 40th birthday & I wanted to do something special for it. So we headed over to Stradebroke Island just off the coast of Brisbane for a few days. There are a few cool parks over there & an old bowl that I hadn’t ridden for at least 20 years. The weather was amazing & it was a great way to see my 40th birthday in with great mates & family. I couldn’t ask for a better day, thanks to all that came over.

A little late but better than never, here is the video from the day. Thanks again to all those that came over, rode, hung out & partied the day/night away.

Thanks to Jesse Breen & Glen McLaughlin for filming & Cooper Brownlee for editing.

Justin and his friend Jim Borio session the Black Diamond park hard. Justin comes through with some really technical lines and throw in a flip fake for good measure…

Tuesday night I spent rolling around Melbourne city with Shane on the hunt for some unique spots to shoot photo’s. We came up on a few great spots and the photos below are the result from shooting at them, we had a bunch more spots planned but ran out of time so no doubt we will be back at it soon…

The Sydney leg & first stop of the 2015 DownUnderGround Flatland Series, is on this weekend in Sydney. We’ve donated a brand new 2016 Colony EXON flatland frame prototype as a raffle with all proceeds going towards the pro purse. Anyone can won the frame, just buy some tickets. Should be a big day of flatland happenings down in Sydney on Saturday.

Yo yo !!

Whilst Pete recovers from what feels like his 50th knee reco his brother Dao has uploaded their dvd’s Project One and Glasses from the early 2000’s. Pete really had some amazing footage for the era along with the rest of the guys so hit play for a trip down memory lane…

The guys over at FOX are heading out on the road between Melbourne and the Gold Coast. Alex will be on the trip so be sure to make it out to the one of the stops…

Any Simon footage is good footage, check the latest wizardry from him in this new video filmed at a few of his local spots…

Hey guys! The last couple of months have been super good, heaps of work on at the shop and I’ve been doing a heap of riding! I’ve got a lot of time in with my gorgeous girl, Katie. Tom moved down and is living with us which is so fun aswell! I was lucky enough to head over to ADL with Dean and Cooper for The October fest trails and then just got to spend a weekend up in QLD riding with the crew and got to meet a few idols of mine which was unreal! Thank you to Clint, Niki and Hardy for having me, it was too good!!

I’ve been slowly but surely clocking a few clips with Cooper to finish up my video which I’m stoked on!

To top it all off I’m off to the USA in a couple weeks for 3 weeks!

Hey guys, the past two weeks I spent in England riding some of the indoor parks. I had to stop riding for almost 2 months because I had a problem with my finger, but now I’m feeling great to ride again. Here are a few photo’s I took whilst over there.

We’ve got a photo gallery up on TCU from our recent trip down the east coast of Australia. Check out some of the photos from the good times here…

A few of us are hitting the road next month for a session down in Fresno, CA. Looking forward to hanging out with the locals and just the trip in general. Make sure you guys get out there if you are anywhere near Fresno.

Hey guys just checking in, been real busy lately with work and my boys Stefan and Abel. I’ve also been trying to get a new Colony video finished that I’ve been really pushing myself to get my best footage to date so keep an eye out for that in the next month or so! Follow me on insta @jourdanbarba to keep up with my day to day adventures !

These past couple of weeks I’ve been mostly riding local parks, a little street and my flat rail with good friends while the boss man aka Cooper Brownlee has been away. But I got a few clips with him this past weekend and a few pictures. I also caught the tail end of Colony’s shop tour a couple of weeks back and hung out at Strictly, Prahran and Box Hill to ride with the locals.

This last month has been a good month despite not being able to ride. January 2nd when I was in Oregon I crashed on my last day of the trip home to see my family. Tore my labrum in my shoulder. Doctor said take about 4 weeks to let it rest and then start physical therapy on it. So I just started doing all the stretches an it’s starting to head in the right direction. I think another week or so and I should be back on the bike at 100%. So this last month to keep myself busy and productive I started painting again. Which has been great. Working and growing Locals Only As usual. Just launched a new website which I’m pretty excited about. Can’t wait for the Colony X Locals Only pivotal seat do drop in the coming months. Lots of good things happening just need my shoulder to heal up so I can get back to doing what I love! – Nathan.

Our friends at Ave BMX have been busy this past year filing for a full length DVD. Both Michal Mycek and Milosz Siajkowski feature in this trailer along with the rest of the Ave team. It looks like it’s going to be really well put together and a good watch…

With Bayzand back from injury he sent through some photos of his current ride which is a 2015 Burna, Guardian Forks, Official Stem, Burna Bars, Fantastic Plastics, CC Sprocket, Pintour/Pinnacle wheels, Alex Hiam Combo Seat and 22’s Cranks.

So the New Years off to a cracker, I’ve been living it up in Cairns for a week to start my new years with my misses. Then flew up to Brissy to join the boys on the Brissy to Melb trip you may have seen played out in a few raw tapes. The trip was a blast, cruised the east coast stoppin’ in at a few new spots. Coffs Harbour was by far my favourite! Parks got endless flow. Got to witness Bobbie and Ricky’s bike wizardry for the first time, along with hanging out with most of the crew and catchin’ up with the local scenes which was sick! Trip was amazing!

Besides from that, been home about a minute and went out filming for the Bone DVD, first spot put my face straight into the concrete. Crash was brutal, Got some stitches and some grazes all over me but apart from that I got out of it pretty lucky!

All in all it’s been an awesome start to the year, should be back on my bike in no time.

With the huge success & popularity of our Colony Wasp Cassette Hubs we wanted to offer something to make them even better again.

We’ve had Chris Courtenay test these for over 6 months now & have stood the test of time. We’re proud to offer those who want a further weight saving the choice of a 7075T6 Alloy driver for our Wasp Hubs. Alex Hiam & others on the team all now swear by these drivers.

With half the weight of a CrMo driver & no extra cost (unlike Titanium) these alloy drivers are a great way to save some weight & dollars at the same time. They even make the hubs sound even better if that’s your thing?

Check them out now & available at selected dealers worldwide now.

Hey guys,

I am back on the bike! It’s been a long and slow recovery but it’s well worth it. I feel amazing on my bike considering I haven’t riden in about 6 months due to my wrist. I am feeling better than ever, healthy and ready for 2015. Gonna be packed full of good times. I still am doing physio on my wrist and taking it slow. I don’t want to come back to early and make it worse for my self.

I have been getting into photography a lot lately and have been going on some pretty cool missions to get pictures. Last week I woke up at 4:30am to get this shot that is in a tunnel on Brisbane river. I had to go on low tide so I could access the tunnel, And it worked perfect because low tide was the same time as the Sunrise.

I got a little Job doing some hours at a Pizza shop literally 20 footsteps from my house so that’s keeping me busy and helping me save for my travels.

my bikes feeling amazing, I am doing some testing on some of my new signature parts for the 2016 line which is exciting. I am soo stoked with how there all feeling.

I am abouslty loving the new crib at Annerley. The riding scene at my new local is popping right now, So there’s always good crew to ride with at fairfield skatepark.

Thanks guys, follow me on insta for some new riding videos.

Want some of the lightest cranks out on the market? Want also some of the strongest cranks out there in the market? Then take a look at our new for 2015 Colony 22’s Cranks.

Featuring a solid yet light weight 2 piece design, wrap around pedal & spindle bosses, RHD/LHD compatible & a 7076T6 alloy main bolt to help keep the weight down even further. We also offer them in both 170mm & 175mm lengths & soon a 165mm length for flatland use.

Available in Gloss Black or Chrome now. Check them out at a dealer near you now.

Yo yo !!

With Mike stepping down from Pro riding as of last week the guys at BMXFU put together this classic video showing just how savage of a rider Mike was/is as a tribute. He did some amazing moves over the years and we wish Mike all the best with his future endeavours such as Merritt. Mike will still be out killing it no doubt all whilst still reppin’ Colony.

Shuhei is always coming through with some great raw clips. That curved wall setup looks pretty awesome…

Here is the final raw video from our recent trip. Thanks to all the shops and crew that came out for a roll, we had a blast…

Hey Guys,

So happy to say that I’m back on my bike after what felt like a life time off with a broken hand. it’s still not one hunderd percent but I’Ve been having the best time riding again so that’s all that matters right now. I have filmed a few insta vids at the local that will be up on the Colony insts and my own instagram (mick_bayzand1) soon I am also back working on a edit I started before my injury. If you se me around on the bike come say hi.

Peace.

So the last two months of 2014 were pretty cool, we had that Avebmx Athens trip, the last one for DVD project so
now it’s just about to be edited! Premiere should be at the end of February. I can’t wait to watch it all on big screen, should be my best video part to date.

Than Vans sent me to London for Rebel Jam , couldn’t really get close to the level of the contest but it was fun and an awesome experience. The afterparty was so heavy that I missed my flight and stay in Kingstone
for few days where we made that tree photo , it was to cold to ride unfortunately.

Now I’m kind of into finishing my study, my music and surviving inside our indoor park till the winter’s gone to hit the streets again.
