Be sure to check out Ryan’s Power Hour if you have not already & Jourdan’s recent video from Vegas as well.
Yo yo !!
As you will see in this video, Ryan took a few harsh crashes whilst filming this power hour for Vital but he got it done and did well. Ryan puts in alot or work down at Sheep Hills these days so it was fitting to shoot it there. Thanks again to Ryan Galvan for banging this out.
Here is a cool video with Ryan explaining the origins of his Dagger Forks & Bars along with some insight into Dagger the name sake. You can check out his Dagger forks & Dagger bars in our products section.
On a funny story to go with Dagger & myself… One year I stayed at Ryan’s place back in Greenville & I stayed up stairs in the poker room on a make shift bed. Somehow, while we went away for the weekend, Dagger decided to climb up all the steps to the top of the house & leave me 6 little brown Dagger nuggets on my bed !! The little bastard !! Guess that was his way of saying thanks for sneaking him extra food when no one was looking. Miss you Dagger – R.I.P.

This is awesome. Ave BMX who hold down & do a great job distributing our products in Poland took their team on a road trip & this is the end result. Look out for clips from our own Michal Mycek in the mix. That cut he sustained looked harsh but still came back for me afterwards. Grab a coffee, sit back & enjoy.

…Dean Anderson, this kid has been killing it for a while now down in Victoria. If you’ve ever been to The Shed or watched the web video below you know Dean is good on his bike but he is also a down to earth good kid so we are stoked to have him apart of the team repping Colony for us down south. Be on the look out for more from Dean soon but for now check his new setup and the web video he dropped a few months back.
Anton McGuirk is over at Woodward East for a month & he sent in this quick bike check.

The day we checked out of & left Woodward West there was a Free Flow Tour stop being held there. Local rider Sebastian Smith who rides for Colony through Sidewall Distribution’s Crux Division program scored himself a well deserved 1st place. We had the pleasure to hang & ride with Sebastian whilst there & I can easily see why he won, he has the place on lock down. Well done mate !!

I had work 9-17, then riding a bit and had a beer with my mates.

Like 3 times in the last two weeks, the worst was when I tried a wheelie with a city bike and the front wheel came off and I did a faceplant haha.
Websites you have been hitting up of late…
Just watch some videos, news, check my mail and that’s it, I try to spend my time elsewhere then the web.
Last clip you filmed…
Nothing big going on now, with a few small injuries right now, so I try to chill, but definitely cant wait to film stuff when I heal up.

I had a cheese cutlet with baked potatoes and some fresh salad.

I don’t use Instagram and I use twitter very rare, but u can follow me @Oshels.
It’s amazing the things you will talk about when you are stuck in traffic for what seems like forever but there was light at the end of the tunnel, literally! As we got to experience the famous Baldy full pipe which was amazing, the adventure getting there and having to find a new plank to be able to get over to ride it was probably more fun then riding it itself. As you can tell from this photo good times were had.
Over on Ridebmx.com Cooper has a detailed bike check along with some questions about his setup. check it out!

The guys at Grafton City Cycles are organising a jam set for June 24th… check the flyer below for details.
Yo yo !!
Thanks to the guys at Epic Bmx we had a ball at the jam at Liberty park yesterday. Thanks to everyone that came out.
Brock is with out a doubt a ledge destroyer, here is a web video for his clothing hookup Dishonour. As you would expect from Brock there are some solid moves in this, it’s hard to tell what side is his natural grind side.
Brock Olive Scraps from dishonour brand on Vimeo.
Today (Sunday the 10th of June Cali time) at 12pm we here at Colony & Epic BMX are holding a chilled jam at Liberty skate park in Westminster. Come along & meet some of the team, have a ride & for a chance to win a few giveaways. Should be good day for all. See you there.
Yo yo !!
