Queensland BMX BBQ 2007

It was time to leave the crappy weather in Melbourne and head to Brisbane for the weekend. Something about getting on a plane in the rain and 14 degrees and hopping off a couple of hours later to sunshine and 29 degrees. Why don’t I live in Brisbane I kept asking. Anyway, it was a BBQ, a chance to show a few bikes and ride as well. Unfortunately I only had room for one bike so I spent most of the day talking and taking photos rather than riding. Still need to learn how to use my new Canon D30 camera as you can see below. All in all a great day and thanks to the hosts Robert and Scott who you can see in a few photos on here. That’s Robert on the 20 year old GT and Scott on the same bike and his Redline which is nearly as old. Can’t wait until the next one.

Group shot with the E.L. Lewis and Sons backdrop. If you need any powdercoating done, these are the guys to do it. Robert does all my BMX stuff.

Did some-one say product placement? Thanks Scott.

Can’t have an old school gathering without a bunny hop comp. Gary aka Johnny Chopper showing the style required to win. Gary is riding one of his own bikes and you can check out his stuff at Johnny Chopper.
