Australia Day.

So, it was Australia Day and we decided to bring together a group of mountain bikers and have a bbq, and then work on a private backyard pumptrack. 

Sim, head chef

Mmm, bacon

Once the bbq had been started, we sent Austen off to go get water, leaving behind his downhill bike. Seeing as though we were good mates of his, we decided to "fix" his set up a bit....

"Fixing" Austen's bike

Austen did eventually realise we had changed his setup. Well, a flat tyre, a slow shock, and a fork that had no compression or bottom out resist was hard to miss.

"It's a party!"

While Riley, Sim and I were toiling away on the track, Austen decided it would be a good idea to paint his shoes gold. I don't know why, but he did. It's safe to say, we all got gassed out by the paint fumes.

He thinks he's a pimp

So, then a pump track was born. Rad sessions went late into the night, and then in to the next morning. Which was rad, until I faceplanted on this berm. True story. Now I get a berm named after me.
