What an awesome week at Beach Park. Footie fans everywhere, sun baked foreigners and all the riding you can handle. To finish it off we had a BANGER Skate Jam on the Saturday and BANGER BMX Jam on the Sunday. Once again mad props to Zoo York and Rock Star for hooking us up.
Week 2 is done and dusted and we deep into week 3 already. The Am/Pro Jam was a no go last weekend `cos of the crappy weather all weekend(so some of us hit Pav instead and got some filming done indoors 
)
Stu moves onto the Mr Price Pro this weekend doing Demo’s for Red/Mongoose and Justin Tompson is taking his place for the remainder of the holidays. We have had a whole bunch of young guns down at the park on a regular basis takin part in the activities and you can see the improvement in these young riders everyday.

The Richards Bay “No Pro’s Jam” was a huge success! Although it rained heavily the night before the park was quickly mopped and dried early the next sunny morning.
Big shout out to Rock Star and Fit Bike Co. for the hooks ups on the day. Thanks to Rico for shooting photos.

Jacques has been rolling through KZN quite a lot of late. He’s back in town with 3 busted ribs after jumping in on the Rock Star road trip to Richards Bay about 2 weeks ago. Now he’s back in Durban filming for his upcoming part in the S&M “Blind in Texas” DVD. Peep this lil edit of what he’s been up to….
The last two months for the young South African MTN Bmx Rider has been far from a routine for Sifiso “skizo” Nhlapo as per previous seasons. Missing out on the last two important European Rounds due to only being able to be in Europe for a 3 month period in 6 months left Nhlapo no choice but to come home. Skizo commented “I was a little disappointed at first but have learnt over my last year after my injury that any situation can be resolved and there is always a solution. I was home for a week which was perfect timing to race the MTN SA National Series and then headed out to USA before Worlds. USA will sort me out quickly I think as there are plenty fast riders there.”
