Ayr Trails Jam

Image
Dean Foster turning it down - Pic by Derrick Melish About 30 riders travelled from Townsville, Mackay and Airlie Beach for the Second Ayr Trails Jam. The day was organised by Phil Zvaigne, Damien Hebbard and myself. There were no prizes or sponsors - all we wanted to do was get everyone together for a fun afternoon at our jumps. Standouts were James Draper, Jarem Dravitzki and Dean Foster. A lot of people mentioned that they liked the jumps and had a good day, which made all the lead up work worthwhile. I would like to thank Derrick Mellish from FlatlineBmx for taking some great photos. Words- Darryl Kelly

diversity interactive!

Image
I was trying to think of ways to make the site more interactive and I thought of this: Each week viewers of the site send in quotes, lyrics, short, short, short stories, your favourite line from Dolly magazine or just a random collection of words . The one I find to be most entertaining will be the new headline under the diversitybmx title for a week or so. Send in your submissions by commenting this post . You can comment anonymously but you won't be credited for it. -Mitch
