Please let us know if you can assist us by locating it. The local police is on the case too.
But there’s nothing more helpfull than a keen eye.

So please if you see this one of a kind bike in Australia around the Mortdale area. give us a call on 0402 138 508 (reward will be offered) or contact the bike shed Mortdale for immediate response if the bike is spotted on (02)9586 0138

Team Kenda/Morewood Bos Test Session
Mar/090
Hey folks,
two weeks ago the boys from the Team Kenda/morewood were in Spain for the bos test session with some VIP individuals. Patrick Morewood was there crunching some numbers and mellowing the team with the technical aspect of the bike, Olivier Bossard loaded with a mobile Dyno, and a bucket load of forks and shocks for Nathan and Mitch to try out.
In three days Rennie and Delfs knocked out 27 runs with 23 different suspension setups. After every run Bossard and his technicians would have a fork with new settings ready to be exchanged. Nigel Reeve, Rennie’s mechanic spent all weekend swapping suspension setups and now holds the world record for fastest fork change over in a Spanish layby.

Look for Nathan at the Oceanias for his first official appearance on board his new rig.

Lachie & Patto’s ‘09 Autumn Melbourne
Mar/092
Well, i’m now living in Melbourne for Uni as all would probably know, and if not… I am now living in Melbourne doing Uni just so you know.
A day or so before the weekend, Lachie asked if he could stay at mine, with about 5 people.. When he then went on to mention who was coming, i became sooo keen for the weekend to arrive.
On Saturday morning, Lachie was going to be travelling up into Melbourne with Simo (Mt Gambier), Elliot (Radelaide), Tom (Radelaide) and Max (Radelaide).. Though, all didnt go to plan as Simo missed the bus the night before and was going to be heading over seperatly in the morning..
All was well with the others though with them safely arriving at Southern Cross on time.
First park on the agenda after we had regrouped was Camberwell..
Camby was pretty quite, so finding, testing lines for all was quite easy.
Lincoln rocked up to join the festivities of the day also, bring his A game with him.

If anyone can guess what this is, well done..

Nicho Testing Morewood.
Mar/090
Nicho and I went out the other day for a quick shoot at Mona Vale downhill track in Sydney. Apart from having the shit kicked out of me by bull-ants (I didn’t realise I was standing on their nest while setting up a flash), and mosquitoes (Mona Vale is practically forest), we had fun.
Nicho was testing his new BOS forks…the white ones.
Anyway: Photos. Go team!


Enjoy, homies.
