An now here's a few new nice phat trannys to shralp, hit d image for a closer look !

An before all d fresh diggin, the old lines & d dirtfarmer in d loader about to get his monster dig on !


The Gorge ! open day is 6th december yes that's right 6th december ! Be there ! Had a yarn to Nath today whilist he was play'in around with his loader & fresh pile of topsoil , the above top photo ain't so fresh a few weeks old , today tho with the fresh cappng of nice topsoil over parts of the trails well it gave me goosebumps !! The Gorge is loookin pretty dam RAD ! Most of the tranys & landings are to be capped with the goodness ie topsoil (unlike the $75,000 !!!! WTF !!! Lismore/wanaka jump park , with free dirt how's it cost $75,000 to build ? LWCI dodgy maybe ? the truth is out there tho haha Lismore is getting abit wierd tho, gaps are gettin shorter ? Trannys gettin bumpier/flatter/rocker along wit d landings, it's still kinda fun aye if ya spend a few hours sweeping gravel of the lines haha or get in there an fix a few things , just adapt to the place an stop changing things everyweek haha build it once, build it right, cap it, dial it in & roll it ! whoops did i just type all that hahha)


So it's gona be a dope day of dirty fun indeed , @ The Gorge Road Trails , Queenstown , it's gona be very silly with loads of trickery & stunting going on i think aye haha , on all sorts of bicycles ya know big & small plus bbq ( snags, patties & Tofu?) , raffles (it's a fundraiser peeps) , tunes ( yeah Revolver Matty bom batty) , beers (BYO) , prizes ( for what ever Nath decides is worthy of one) & bring ya bikini an ya might win the big tranny hop comp haha !! If ya diggin what ya see or have ridin around Queenstown hit Nath up at Phatlines as he'll come build ya dream for ya !!

Stony Hills tease eh !!

Henry get 'ol flat in his yard !! Love ya trails bro , ya shralper !

Henry's trail daycare centre , Marley tho just could'nt sleep with all the action go'in on

James not stunt'in over a dirty tranny , just flow'in thru is fun enough eh !

just a wee little tease !! D smiley man Micheal t-bog'in it @ Stony Hills somewhere in another space & time ! Soo... dig trails all you none diggin slackers out there !!


After the shredathon is was down to Stony Hills for some sweet chill time with my brother Tim , Micheal & Marley (my son) along with the Stony massive haha 5 sweet as sunny days , a few good servings of Emersons , coffee , loads of good kai an that demon stuff helps ya get ya dig on to man !!

Gorge Road Phatlines !

Cheers to LB & Corban for the slide show of Gorge road , an dam all the new extensions are lookin off the hook , thanks to Mr Dirtfarmer (Nathan Greenwood- Phatlines)he's been feeding his 3 tonne loader loads of steroids & piling that dirt dam high like 15 feet high man ,there's been loads of shaping , slappin & pack'in goin on, an there's a pump track to get ya back to the start of it all once you've blasted some tranfers & tranny's man , oh yeah no peddling back to the roll in , peddlin's for racing man not trails haha !! Sorry no photo's , respect for Nath , the Gorge is still shut down an can't to be far off being opened again for summer blasting !!

So if you've ever ridin the gorge before basically the whole area to the left of the two original lines is chocka block full of lovley massive tranny's ,landings , berms , rollers etc etc theres gonna be some crazy stunts go down at these trails man , an even TJ Lavin is help'in dig , he's in Queenstown with MTV doin some reality show thang for a month !!! Big up's to all the local QT crew, international crew, QLDC & Queenstown bike club for help'in out !!! Bring on Summer !! Hell yeah !!

Scottish BMX cartel digs !

tough dawg?

no peddling here , just drop in

gotta do sumthang 'bout those poles stickin up aye, safty first lads !


this wall ride is fun , but just don't look at the construction hhaha !
I've been riding abit with some nice Scottish lads Ian (P-Haze) , Corban & Mikey when i'm not diggin my own trails or being a dad . An they hate the wind like most of us who like to get airborne , as Lismore & wanaka sk8 park are both very bad for wind straight up as their both so exposed to the north westerly that blasts thru Wanaka. So they got there dig on an got a couple of down hill doubles , berms & a wall ride goin on , it's abit ghetto ( ie poles stikin up out the front of the landing ) but this G.T.F (ghetto trainin facility) is fun for bit of a sesh & is on the edge of some nice woods with a sweet view !! So now were gona add another landing maybe to the left of the tranny closest to the wall ride ie hip into a nice kicker sending ya outa the woods an into to the air !!! Dig trails

New bike event & ride guide !


Had a coffee & a good chat with Anna Smith from THE MIRROR about the Tim Hales Wanaka Shredathon & up an coming BMX events that I'm organising along side the Wanaka Skate Committee in the Wanaka area to help fundraise for the Wanak Sk8 park extentions, it's real cool to see the local paper getting behind the Bike community. It's going to be a fortnightly feature starting on Wednesday 12th November called "Making Tracks" focussing on bikes ya know big & small wheeled beasts along with some of the known spots to ride , products , clubs , groups & even a question & answer section , no doubt they'll be some silly ??? asked. The Mirror circulates about 23,223 papers around Queenstown , Wanaka, Crompton, Alex ,Clyde , Roxburgh , Arrowtown etc etc it'll most definatly get the word out to central Otago about what's happining in ya hood !!! Word UP !!
