Australia is a beautiful country!!

Here are some pics of local skateparks in Perth, keep your eyes open for a new improved website coming very soon and features on local tracks coaching information and tips.Check out the hot local "Jayden" he's on a scooter but i tell you he was getting 4/5ft airs out of a gnarly quarter and coming back in smooth as you like. The kid rips on a bmx to but unfortunately got his nicked a couple of weeks ago. Someone give this guy a bike!!!

Good Luck to Shanaze Reade

Having worked on camps with Shanaze Reade and watched her train. I am posting some pics and a vid clip ive taken of her training over the last two years. This is Shanaze's moment when all the hard work is down to 60 secs. Whatever happens we love ya Shinny!!

Heres a great quote from a radio 5 live viewer "If Shanaze Reade can bounce back on her bike after a fall like that, how come certain footballers need an entire trauma team after being fouled?"

Does size matter???

Today i had the pleasure of testing a one off prototype 22" bmx bike. From a firm called FACTION BIKES. It was really great to ride, even if it was a heavier street bike version. Its as you might expect, a lovely blend with the handling of a 20" and the stability of a 24". Preston bmx track was the venue but its just been revamped and was a little soft in places to give it hell for leather.
Look out for more updates on this and a a possible 22" race series coming soon.

bmx teaching

We got to choose the music do the voice overs etc ENJOY...

Sadness mixed with adrenaline

The late Great Robert Dunlop









Here are some trackday images from Pete Wyleman who takes photos at No Limits trackday events. Oulton Park was fantastic on the cbr600rr it handled beautifully and combined with the sticky tyres made scrapping my knees easy.


Can i just send out my deepest sympathy and condolences to the family of Robert Dunlop who was tragically killed in practice for the North west 200 on Thursday. Robert was the brother of the late great Joey Dunlop who was killed in 2000. I was in Ireland at the time and attended his funeral with 50,000 other people. It was a very emotional event and both Robert and Joey are two of my heroes. A family of really down to earth motorcycle racers. Roberts son Michael Dunlop paid a moving tribute to his late father today by winning the 250cc race at the North West 200.
Goodbye Bob you will be sadly missed.
