On December 3rd, 2011 almost the entire Colony team will be in Adelaide, South Australia. It’s all to help promote the up coming Vans / Colony collaboration shoe release. There will be two new models based off the Vans Wylie & Vans Milo shoes with Colony artwork. These will be out in March next year.
Ryan Guettler, Alex Hiam, Zac Miner, Mick Bayzand, Cooper Brownlee, Tom Stretton, Liam Zingbergs, Brock Olive, Valvo & myself will be there.
We will be having an in-store at Little Black Bike at 1pm & then a ride at the city park at 3pm. Come along, meet the team, get some freebies & then let’s all have a ride. Should be a great day.

We had a pretty good day riding around yesterday. Valvo, Peta, Alex & myself rode a few of the various parks here in Brisbane & had a great time while doing so. Check out a few random pics from the day below, good times.

Alex has been quietly collecting some footage while out riding with his mates & this is the end result – Bro Cam 2. Some really good technical ramp stuff in here. It’s awesome that every time I see Alex he has learnt another bunch of tricks. So good. Sit back & enjoy the Alex Hiam show. Alex also edited it this himself by the way.

Alex Hiam turns 16 today… happy birthday mate !! To help celebrate his birthday here are a few web edits from Alex over the years on Colony.

Next up in our Ten Clips series of video’s is Alex Hiam. One of his favourite parks here in Brisbane is Fairfield, so we hit it up one weekday so it was a bit quieter, which it was but it was crazy windy at times. You can probably tell how windy it was in the background of some of the clips. Alex was keen though so we spent the afternoon filming this. Thanks to the locals for being patient at times.
Filmed and edited by Cooper Brownlee with additional filming by Rhys Yeomans.

Zac Miner, Alex Hiam, Tom Stretton, Brock Olive & myself headed down to Newcastle on the weekend to ride & to attend a DVD premiere hosted by the guys at Drift Bikes. A huge thanks to everyone at Drift. On the way down we also hit up the new park in Nimbin which was a blast. Get yourself there sometime soon if you wanna ride a great snake run & park.
A huge thanks to Adam Ingles & all the Newcastle locals that showed us a great time. A special thanks also go to Matt & his boys for letting us ride his backyard ramps. Thanks for the Jack’s too, good times !!
