Today is a year to the day that this ten clips was filmed with boss man Millar, how time flies when you’re having fun. A new one is being filmed today as well, so keep an eye out for that. #frontbrakes
Our Anyway Plastic Pegs have been in the works for a while now & are finally out in Australia & Canada. Other markets will have them in September / October this year.
Featuring an alloy core with a replaceable plastic sleeve these babies will slide on almost any surface with ease. They are that little bit longer too, making them great for crooked grinds and other tricks. All at a great price too. So check them out at a Colony dealer near you now.
A few guys on the team are actually running these pegs without the plastic sleeves for those who are weight conscious. They are crazy light & perfect for park use without the sleeves.

Marnold is a boss and went in hard for this web video. Enjoy the video then check out his signature Talon bars here.
The sun was out again in Melbourne so I took the guys down to the iconic St Kilda banks on the beach which was pretty damn good then onto the city for a roll well into the evening. Good times indeed.
Our 2014 range of complete bikes are out now in various dealers around Australia with more to come early August. Other countries will have to wait till September / October this year though but will be worth the wait.
Both the 2014 Premise & the 2014 Endeavour have a limited edition colour each, once they’re gone, they’re gone for good, so act fast.
The Premise limited edition colour is Mint with Black while the Endeavour is ED GOLD which looks amazing.
Check out the promo video we did as well on the new bikes for even more details.

Shane sent through an update on what’s been happening with him, always something cool going on…
Hey peeps! I’m over in Perth right now for a few days before I head out to Europe and Hungary where I’ll be living for the next few months. Bike packed and everything is sorted, can’t wait to get over there! Before I left I did a small piece for a magazine that goes around regional Victoria called “The Milk Mag” in the current issue, 19. Pretty stoked on it and the article talks about interesting jobs so being in BMX is definitely something worth a read that everyone needs to know about! You can pick it up in most newsagents I’m told so check it out. Don’t forget to hit me up on Instagram @shanebadman
Fat Tony did this cool feature on Ryan Guettler with some interesting facts about Ryan & some cool photos from a day out & about. Check it out here now.
Look out for a few clips from Ryan in this new TCU video as well as an appearance from Alex Hiam as well.

Zac Miner has a few really good clips in this mixed section from JT’s Blazeguard DVD that came out a little while ago now.
We spent the day filming and riding at Woden park in Canberra, we planned to only be there for a warm up before hitting some spots but one clip led to another and before we knew it, it was freezing cold and the sun was going down. Everyone seemed to have fun though and we got some solid clips which I am stoked on!
We spent the good part of the day hanging out at Backbone BMX riding the flat rails and checking out the shop. As always Backbone hosted a great day. We then hit up a session at the iconic Erindale Banks where I snapped this shot of Zac just as the cold was really setting in.
A couple good days spent in Sydney were just had with real good weather, clips filmed and too much dice played. Here are a couple photo’s of Chris at a packed Bondi park.
We put together a video to show everyone the highlights of the 2014 Colony Endeavour along with some riding from a few of the team guys. These bikes are available now in Australia with the rest of the world getting them in September.
The sun was out in Sydney so we hit up Five Dock park and then onto a few spots throughout the day which was real productive. We have another day in Sydney before we head down to Canberra!
We spent the day driving from Newcastle after hitting up the Wallsend park then got settled in Sydney and searched a few schools with some good results. That evening a couple of us hit up the city for a roll and Tom got an awesome clip after a couple hours of putting in work for it!
The guys up in Berry Springs near Darwin have a fun raiser jam organised for this weekend on July 7th at some private trails. Should be awesome day for an awesome cause. If you’re in the area get yourself there for a fun day on the bike. Proudly supported by many including ourselves.

We spent the day/evening driving from Brisbane to Newcastle which is about 800km’s, it rained almost the entire time which made it worse to drive in. Fortunately we did get a little window of dry weather as we went through Nambucca Heads so we hit up the park to break the drive.
Stoked to hear Alex just won the San Jose stop of the Recon tour. It was his first day back after a couple weeks off riding because of a dislocated thumb.
Our 2014 range of complete bikes arrive into Australian stores this week ahead. In this preliminary drop, the models available will be the Premise, Inception & the ever popular Endeavour.
For 2014 the Premise will come in two stock colours all season being Bloody Black with Red & Matte Black with Purple. There will also be 3 limited edition colours through out the year with the first one being Mint with Black.
The Inception will come in one colour all season, Dark Red with Black.
The Endeavour will also have two stock colours all year with Matte Black with Red & Purple Storm with Polished being the offerings. There will also be 3 limited edition colours throughout the season with a very special GOLD ED being the first offering.
Ryan Guettler’s The Living will be out in September in one colour all season, Matte Black with Chrome.
Check them out at selected dealers for this initial pre-launch this week with all dealers Australia wide having them come August with our next shipment. The rest of the world will need to wait till September to get these bikes though, but well worth the wait.
We will upload full spec details in the days ahead in our all new products pages coming, so hang tight.

We had a pretty chilled day after the long drive the night before so a few of the guys hit up the backyard for a session and then in the evening it was onto RideOn which was a blast seeing everyone out.
Valvo travelled a few hours from Sao Paulo in Brazil to ride the Cosmo trails jam. He let us know it was a real solid day riding for 8 hours straight which is always a good sign of a good day out on the bike.
We spent the day in Rockhampton hanging out at the Giant Rockhampton store and then onto the park. The weather was dialed and all the locals were well into a session with the guys. Then it was a long LONG 8 hours of crappy roads and road work back to Brisbane. Thanks to everyone that came out for the day.
We hit up M1 Cycles in Gladstone yesterday, hung out with the locals and had them jumping bikes for t-shirts. Then onto the local park which was packed with riders and a good session followed! Thanks to everyone who came out and enjoyed the sunshine.
Jourdan is out here in AUS right now filming with us on the road and for some extra goodness he just dropped this new web video!
The guys from Unleaded over in France just dropped this video of Bruno which is a good watch! Thanks to Romain Ventre for putting it together.
Yesterday was another good day. We started out in Maryborough & hit up some local street spots which turned out well. Then made the drive to Woodgate but stopped off in Childers on the way to hit some rails.
I was really wanting to show the guys Woodgate though, one for the awesome ramp & also to see the kangaroos that are always hanging right by the ramp. The local wildlife did not let us down & both Jourdan & Brandon got to see their first ever kangaroos. Some good riding went down from Chris as well with some solid stuff going down in the last specks of day light.
Today we are in Gladstone & will be at M1 Cycles at 11am then the park in town at midday. Come & say g’day !!
Yo yo !!
