Hello forty8 fans, Bilko here just checkin in with another update on whats been happening. first off i have been back on the bike since xmas and only had a week to
prepare for the UK crusty tour. i took it easy over there and survived to
ride another day but it was an awesome time and i cant wait to go back to
europe.
 |
over the last couple of weeks i am stoked to have been doing two of the
coolest demo's ever outside of crusty tour.
the first one was the Mini SX at frankston BMX track which is 10 minutes
from my house, and also were i grew up racing BMX.
it was awesome to be
riding in front of the local fans and i spent alot of the time signing
posters, handing out stickers and getting photo's.
i also tried my hand at the mini racing but my ankle still being verytender
i didnt want to risk it, plus my Z50 monkey didnt handle the jumps to well
either. |
the next week we were invited to Echuca to ride a demo at the southern 80
ski race, the biggest ski race in australia.
 |
finishing up riding then going
to watch boats roar down australia's greatest river at 120mph with two
skiiers behind is an incredible sight.
it was awesome, our ramp was set up
right at the finish line so we could also sit on our landing and watch the
boats roar past.
we also attended a meet n great in the main st and signed a bunch of posters
which was cool. we done 2 demos on saturday and 2 on sunday before heading home monday
arvo.
|
so from here we start the crusty unleash hell reigonal tour, as i write this
the americans such as mase, nate and the rest are on a plane over here and
the next 18 weeks is going to be interesting.
Heres a couple of shots I hope you enjoy … and check my website www.bilko22.com for updates and videos. |
