The Gorge
Backbone boss hog Rhysty having a goodtime in his backyard on his 35th birthday jam, three clips from the man himself, Chris Harti & a train from Rhysty, Russell Brindley & Chris. Get rhythm while you can!http://www.backbonebmx.com.au
hell yeah this is rad as helmet cam footy collected on a trail tour through out France. Tom takes you through some of the finest trails in france. Filmed in Paris, Bordeaux, Banos, and Toulouse. More rad footy @ VINYL BMX
Yeah Auzzie ripper Josh looks like he's got slayin' trails down & has done for a while since the Glenbrooke days! Rad
those wild boys at POW's alway's serve up the goods & kno how to have a loose time!
Closed means closed folks. It's diggin' season only @ The Gorge. Trust me when trails surrounded you as ya dig, you just can't but think about roastin' some. Go ride Lismore if your to lazy to DIG weekend warriors! Wanaka Jump Park is open, the 4 main lines ie small lines have been altered some, a new drain has been put in, the role in is now steeper. The Big line/moto ain't been touched since i left Wanaka 8 months ago, it's been run dry & hammered in places nothing some love won't fix ie a sweep, rake & patch up an it's ON! (hint hint Lismore users & expect more QT riders in ya area)........2 Dig? or Ride? DIG MAN, COME ON it's a no brain'er, if ya don't dig & keep shit dialed, ya just ain't thinking right!)
....mmmmmm coffee
This is sooo RAD! Make sure ya go big screen for this sweet footy of 3 legit, sound as kiwi lads George & Louis Bolter & JaydenLeeming tearing it up at the Gorge one fine day over summer, they were all so psyched on the place they roasted right thru into the darkness, if i had the chance i know i would if i ate more carrots! Redbull sure don't muck around when it comes to a sick edit! Big ups to Redbull for all their help at the Gorge were we all can fly, who said anything about wings man THE WHEEL is all ya need (& shovels, rakes, wheel barrow's etc etc i think you get it)
Well us lads on the tools @ The Gorge are dam psyched on this vid & you should be too, it's a labour of love & untold infinite hours on the tools & dam she's sure Gorge'ous it's, even more motivation 4 us to continue loading wheel barrow's, continue slappin' tranny's & always day dreaming about the spring to come along with the feeling trails give us who know what up. So we'll just keep digging, even if it hurts we STILL dig, feel the pain & work thru it (an those who dig know that you always hurt more when it's cold!). So thanks to those who come an help out many hands make light work.
Right now the Gorge is looking nicely dialed, there's some gravity deifying clay sweating away, more dialing to come & more tarps 2 throw on, it's never ending & the trails are never ever finished (for the record trails can never be FINISHED? creativity & evolution are nocturnal & infinite, so why would you limit yourself?). A few things have changed & a few things have grown over the past 7 weeks & we've still got plenty to do but because were such awesome dirt moving/shoveling/slappin' beasts we've almost run outta dirt (let's just dig out the middles....some more)
.......OK 'nuff rant from me here's a bunch a pic's i took during the Gorge(ous) summer we just had, it only feels like yesterday, so it's at this time of the year we all agree dirts the new snow & BRING BACK SUMMER, yes it's now god dam FREEZZZZZING down here, anyone keen on sexy tall frosty dirty tranny's to lick?
FOX box speakers go good, latest trails fashion.....Thanks FOX...but how do they fit in ya ears?
yes it's the 3rd shot of a BBQ! Us Kiwi's & Ozzie's love a good Barbee who doesn't? Cheers to Manson & Irvine for the feed
Well winters still not here, the sun is the boss & it's blastin us daily with it's warmth, which means the ground ain't frozen solid........so you kno what that means right? Exactly we can dig still till our hearts are content & were getting shit stacked up & playin' with that beautiful clay that's at the Gorge!
oh yeah by the way if ya ain't member of the Queenstown MTB Club get on it man, if you love & ride all the amazing spots they've build from the ground up, you need to give back & the best way to do that is by signing up & becoming a member which is all in support of the local QT riding scene wether you love trails or just plain wanna go fast down hill or peddle up a hill? Your choose = your fun. NUFF SAID, get involved & sign up, show your support!
It's almost a daily operation getting down to the Gorge with Nath, Lowell & Martyn (BIKE SMART kicks ass, ya dig) an were getting it done! What a team & were would we be with out our redbull hit aye Lowell? Oh to have wings right now. So dailing as much as we can b4 we tarp up is awesome, come spring it means less work & the fact of the matter is that we'll be roastin' it up sooner rather than later yeeeeoooow! Ya can't beat getting a head start on spring's heavy work load at ya trails any were on earth! But those who have trails kno this, right?
Big shout out to those who do come an help us out, you kno who you are (even tho there ain't many helpers & plenty of ya like to drive by with comments like "are they finished yet?" or "when do they open up again?''. Are they finished yet haha "what the trails, finished, they'll never be finished man only constant evolutiuon man!) If ya just plain stuck at work an ya can't help dig, well there's always the weekends to invest in ya summer fun, don't be shy & come help us out if were diggin', we won't bite, we'll only heckling ya some in good taste tho haha so bring ya sense of humour.
"Don't fear hard work it's good for ya & it all ways pays off" eat sleep & breath TRAILS all year round, if ya can't ride 'em, build 'em right! embrace the flathead & get it done!
