Cooper Brownlee is once again doing what he loves most, travelling on the road. He is on his way up to Brisbane to ride & photograph our 2011 ranges which arrive in the country in the next week. He stopped off in Sydney for the weekend & rode a new street plaza there to get this photo. Thanks to John Young for clicking the button.

We spent all day setting up the course that we had already build for the event, We had a quick test ride and it works really well! Little tight but all good. So make sure you come out tomorrow and check the comp out! You can get more info here about the comp, here for the address and transport info. Oh and also under 18′s get into the tradeshow for free! Practice is at 12.30 and the comp starts around 2pm. See you there!
On the weekend Cooper Brownlee did a trip to Adelaide to ride & met up with Liam Zingbergs while down there. He also went to the United DVD prem put on by the guys at Little Black Bike. Good times where had by all I am told. Check out LBB site for proof.
Both Cooper & Liam among many more will be at this weekends King Of The Jibs in Melbourne. More good times in store no doubt, can’t wait.
Yo yo !
Cooper Brownlee recently invested in a Canon 7D & this is the first trial edit with his new toy. Look our for a few clips from both Cooper & Marnold. Enjoy !!
Yo yo !!
… always busy !! He recently has been keeping occupied building the set up for the King of the Jibs contest we’re holding in a few weeks, stripping his bike back to bare metal & riding as much as humanly possible. Cooper is setting off on a road trip to Adelaide this coming weekend to shred & film. He will also be up here in Brisbane in a few weeks to photograph our entire 2011 ranges which will hit stores in September across the country. Never a dull moment for Cooper.

It might be sunny all year round up in Colony HQ land, Queensland. But down south here in Melbourne we sometimes have to retreat to the indoors to escape the rain. Last weekend we had a real fun session at a skater built spot (no beef here as far as I know). It works both ways you see. They skate spots we build and vice versa. Here are a couple photos from the day of myself and Marnold. Thanks to Sam Illman for pressing the button on my photo.
I started work on the two main banks for part of the course, before I built the 2nd bank I gave this one a quick test. Stoked on the pop it gives you!
After getting my bike taken off me in Barcelona a few weeks ago by the Police. Once we got back I was keen to get a new Teddy going, exactly the same setup I had but this time in Candy Red! Stoked!
Our main man, Cooper Brownlee has scored our advert in new issue of DIG magazine. Check it out below & the magazine will be available any day soon. Now go buy some Fantastic Plastic pedals !!
Yo yo !!
Cooper Brownlee has got his new bike together after his last one now resides permanantly in a Barcelona police station. We will have photos of his new bike in the next few days. In the meantime he has been having a blast riding again & doing 180′s over things. He has also been hard at work on the newest issue of Focalpoint, due out soon.
Yo yo !!
The trip is coming to an end now, we have a 15 hour flight in the morning then another 8 hours to get home, besides Mick Bazyand who has to wait in singapore for 15 hours until his 2nd flight. Here a few photos I put aside from the trip, I will post up a few more as well.
First up is a photo of me, on the borrowed bike I used for most the trip. Then we have a photo from the centre of Barcelona and last up is a photo of Zac Miner who unfortunately dislocated his knee half way through the trip but he kept positive the whole time.
So it seems Barcelona cops have decided it’s time to take action on bmxers and skaters that are riding spots here. Yesterday I had my bike confiscated by them for no real reason at all, all I was doing was riding a bank, no grinding no damaging property but with this language barrier all I know is that I just lost my bike! Whilst we were at the police station there was a booklet about how skating in the streets was an offence, I’m not sure if this is a new thing but either way anyone who heads over here be careful.
As much fun has it has been here I am really looking forward to going to France on Monday and hanging out with the Unleaded guys. The photo below is of Marnold shredding one of my favourite spots that I got to ride.
