Stowaway

Will Horan is our United connection on the Gold Coast in Queensland, We got the heads up on Will from our good buddy up there Mitch that runs the only BMX store on the coast Helensvale BMX. Will is a rad dude and when he is not shredding the the streets of the Gold Coast he is teaching league footy to school kids up in his neck of the woods. Some of these skills came in handy on the Darwin trip earlier this month when he gave some insightful tips to the grommets up there on Barspin 101! We are stoked to have Will on board with us and we are sure you will for sure see more of him in the coming years!

With sponsors like this you would be smiling too!   Will Horan tearing up your neighborhood soon on the ever popular Mothership!

Helensvale BMX on Queenslands Gold Coast is one of the premier BMX specific stores in this big old country of ours. They have been long time supporters of FBM and stock eveything FBM from Mesh Hats through to high end Warlord Completes. Mitch and Conrad who run the show both ride FBMs and one of there shop team riders is Patrick Oneil who is on FBM flow through the shop. Pat went for a cruisey ride the other day at his local spot and Conrad was able to capture it and put this together. Nice day at the trails ..What more does a guy need? Nothing.

Well it seems Pat Oneils skinhead has grown out and now Kane thinks he is now looking a little bit more like Ray Martin, i cant really see it but its a different look compared to the close shave of some time ago.

Ray Martin in all his glory.

 Pat Oneil versus Ray Martin is there a match here?

Pat here seen wearing the FBM Shricha Hot Sauce Tshirt in red with Nick Richardson growing out of his armpit. If you want to see more of Pat Oneil Check out the Australia Day Web Edit that is up on Ryan Guettlers Vimeo page now . Pat is the one with the giant black hair on the white FBM  spinning to win.

Lou Reeves has also got himself a new FBM whip as well. Heres a pic and brief rundown on its breakdown.

I caught up with Mitch Donnely and some of the young punks from Helensvale BMX and buzzed up North to Bundaberg drinking land, Maryborough QLD. Really good times thanks to Dale , Lester , Jacko and the rest of the crew who worked there asses off to get all 4 main lines working at the Snakedown trails.

Mitch hooked it up bigtime for the crew and already had us booked in staying at Ned Kellys, Lord knows what Ned Kelly had to do with Maryborough but i do know im into Australias infactuation with large public displays of big things, pineapples , lobsters , sheeps , Ned Kellys get on!

There was a big crowd in attendance and at one time i counted 27 riders training one of the lines, Riders from all over the country were in attendance which equaled vast amounts of fun all round.

Pat , Richo ,  Goona , Helensvale Jimmy and Adam all relishing the good times.

Mitch taking the low road while Sunny boy Joel grabs the bull by the horns. This line saw alot of action through out the day as did all the lines. Cheers to the locals for being so cool as to throw a free for all at the Trails and being so welcoming to all!

Mike and the Mechanics, Michael Vockenson and the Sunshine coast boys were on hand dialing , shredding and generally have a good time all day . Cheers for the conversation dudes , Its really cool to meet crews like yours. Ace Weekend all over cheers to Helensvale Bmx for making this trip a reality.
