Another weekend

No riding this weekend, again haha. What I did do was go to a mates bux party. Just a piss up around a campfire by the river. Bloody good time!

In sticking with tradition the boys shackled his arse to a tree n covered him in all kinds of shit haha. (gotta love those high res phone pics)

Shout out to the soldout crew. My old man has a collection of old beer cans unopened.
Thought you's would appreciate this one.

The Taz/Melb trip has been and gone, What a blast! A mention of Day 0 should be made with a seriously good time had at the Slayer/Megadeth concert. We rocked out with a man given 6 months to live (seriously), hear a random turkey run loose in the hallways and the term heavy metal fart gets coined. good times!!! I wish I had photos of all the fucked up shit that happened over the last few weeks but I was too busy having a kickass time. Here's what i did capture:

We went to the infamous Hobart snake run. this thing is fun with a serving of death to say the least. Hangover's seem to make shit taller n steeper. the toilet got four stars tho haha.

Jammo was clipping early. asleep in the van we woke his arse up for this 3banga. This was before viewing 2wheels n pub meals (which mikey bought later in the trip) not realising its been done.

We did some touristy shit n peeped the top of Mt Wellington. As you can see the view of Hobart on this day was glorious.

A few of us had never seen snow before. Boots got all 10yrs old in that shit whilst actually 10yr olds looked on like he was a dick hahaha

Travelling to Devonport we swung past home hahaha.

Devonport park could well have been sweet, but we were feeling the effects a good time the night b4 to really get stoked.

We were in Devonport for The Spirit of Tazzy, which would take us to Melbs. A boat full of old people was pretty boring, but a random bloke dropping heavy metal farts n a coupla cougars on the prowl kept us entertained haha.

We arrived in Melb's at like 6 in the morning. Our first taxi driver was pure gold... "Chapel St for the shopping, King St for the sluts....Me, I prefer Hustler cos the bitches don't talk back!"

This is the Westozbmx beer drinking team (+Boots) that terrorised Melbourne for 2 weeks and this was the wagon our "Band" cruised in. how many times did we get asked if we were in a band? FIVE!

Once again someone failed to mention to Jammo that lack of sleep from the previous nights piss up is a legitimate excuse for not riding. He ripped the beast bowl of Knox far too easy.

Local knowledge is king. We convoyed with the FP band wagon to a few local gigs, lead by front man coops.

i swear there was more photographatising the bicycling goin on. Who do you think these folk would be filming/photographing? think again!

The full pipe was a great spot for a slash haha. Only lead guitarist Josh n little drummer boy Boots were man enough to get wet for the love of the spot. full pipes+water=carnage

Everybody needs good neighbours!!!! we found Ramsay street. They were filming for season 2010.

This bloke was super stoked to meet "Slayer". So stoked he's going to call his nephew in Perth, and tell him he met "Slayer". We randomly found another filming crew for Neighbours a few days later n tried on the same skit. The security guard there was way too awsome to fall for it. She was wearing a Motorhead shirt under her highviz. Rock On!

We made the trip to Geelong n sussed out the plaza sk8 park. This place was wierd. I had the feeling passers by were thinking "damn kids destroying that sculpure". random tourist were walking through just looking at shit....Get of the Damn park retard!

Mikey n Boots shelled out a serious rip off amount of ca$h for a helicopter ride. It appears there was fuck all to see but they seemed to enjoy the ride.

Geelong was also kickass because it was cup day. dolled up broads everywhere. divine. It was also muck up day for some school so there were a bunch of girls walking the streets drunk as shit dressed up in crazy halloween style cozzies. hahaha was good for a laugh.

U pipe! Its the same as always but Boots had never been before. Just another tick on his bucket list.

TRAILZ TRAILZ TRAILZ!!!!!!! Definitley the highlight of the trip in riding terms. (Definitely not over all, Strip clubs won that hands down) Mikey showed his trails etiquet by helping with preparations for the sesh. He was like a kid in a porno shop, grinning from ear to ear.
This day was a landmark day for all of mankind with the unleashing of the chicken strap!!!! Finally you get to see it. Remember, you saw it here first folks!

Jammo got all Jammo at the trails, need i say more?

Who wheres white at the trails? Boots (and Josh) thats who. now thats confidence. The seatgrab nac got taken to the trails. He did it fifty times cos apparently it wasn't "good enough".

The man of the day, Dean. Instant rockstar status on the westozbmx front. this guy was willing to let us shred his trails even though he didn't know us. Thanks again mate, hell of a good time had by all. your welcome to hit westoz trails anytime.

Flagz invited us to his joint for a BBQ Fridy night. (who are we kidding, it was a massive pissup). I feel this pic captured wat everyone was seeing that night. hahahaha Stay tuned for Ned Kelly's Barbers update on this night. Cheers to Flagz for his beerspitality.

Last day of riding! a mad rush for clips. we got clips. how do ya celebrate clips? thats right, get hammered n toddle off to the cas/spearmint rhino, drink copious amounts of booze n blow copious amounts of money.

Cheers to all the Melb crew for the good times had especially Coops for showing us the local spots and to Dean for letting us ride his trails. A special mention to Flagz n Marnold who are officially inaugorated into the Westozbmx party animal hall of fame after this trip.

Racism begins at the family home.

I went n check'd Brent W's little race track he built in his backyard today.

The highlight was definitely his compacting technique. GOLD!!!

Brent clockin' a PB...

and displaying some racer burm action...

that Gilly tried to reproduce.

Another Outdate

This update is actually a few weeks old. Pipeline was gettin a facelift n i was told i couldn't blow it. alas the guys punch a few too many hot ones n it didnt eventuate. Pipeline is now a disgusting mess.....hahaha like it wasn't already. Is it strange that a dew tour ramp got built n nothing else....hmmmmmmm?

Pete even hired a Kanga for the weekend! it pushed a bit of dirt around but from wat i saw was just an entertaining ride inbetween heats on the kicker. haha they had a blast.

Who woulda thort backies woulda been soup of the day. To Danno's credit this is where he learnt them, n he hucked it straight to dirt...

Then proceeded to huck wild shit upside down for the hell of it, to no avail.

Pete got all randy for some inversion but didnt have his bike. He tried on the Bootcycle but, as you can see, the result wasn't pretty haha

Some people kept their head (upright), n stuck to wat they knew. Jamie with a tuck nohands.

This photo was too good not to post. Everyone has been there at least once in there life. haha.

Boots gets into the stunt festival with a seatgrab nac........

and was just another slave to the almighty backflip god. hahahaha

Dirty Business

Team hills had another win today when teams south and north failed to even show up to the most recent event. It was a day of trail riding which makes it even more suprising that the other teams didnt appear, trail boss graem would have been in his element and probably could have taken the event out single handedly with his superior style and skill.

Alas Glen (table top king), shredded the 2 top secret locations with more style and x games winning tricks than you can count on 3 fingers.

Congratulations Team Hills on going 2 points clear on top of the table

Josh tryin to get stylish and Brendan Grizz air

Glen practicing for x games, bringin back the nac

Glen showin how easy it is to do tables and below he shows off by taking a foot off too.

Brendan practicing for the toboggan race in the xgames. He was offered a spot on the olympic team but as you can see in the next pic he turned it down.
