BACK IN THE HOOD!

Hey guys, I'm back from the Adelaide trip which was a great time, besides killing my hand on the first day and not being able to ride, it was still rad to hang out with a bunch of rad crew down there. I will post up a couple photos most likely tonight from the trip, the pic below is of Marko at the new CMbmx store which seems to have a tight scene repping it.
In other news I hear the new shop in Albury "Sanction Bmx" was broken into on the weekend, hopefully the boys can pull through.

NIKE REVIEW AND NEW STICKERS

Hey guys, I was fortunate enough to receive a dvd copy of the Nike video so here is a quick review of it. It’s is well edited and filmed with sections from a diverse crew such as Nigel Sylvester, Dennis Enarson, Mike Spinner and Garrett Reynolds along with some trip sections and you've got yaself an enjoyable bmx video, even has a section from when the team rode Melbourne which is pretty rad to see.I think Troy Jackson put it best after he first watched Garret Reynold’s section of the Nike video and sent me a message and all it said was “ Garrett just shut down BMX” It’s ridiculous.
I hear StrictlyBmx will be giving away a few copies of the dvd so keep an eye out here for more info. and the Nike site for more info on the project.
Oh and I have new die cut stickers made up which you can see in the background of that photo, these will be going out with all orders from now on.
