time to do it. Click the image above to be directed to BMX Central.
Attack
of the Plum
James Plumridge sent us through these pics of himself and "whitey"
sessioning the mini by his place in England. This was his first
time shooting with a slave unit on his camera but once he gets the
hang of it you can be sure we'll be getting some dope pics from
him.

February 2008 Dirt
= Love
Ronald's house has been getting a lot of attention on this site
lately and within good reason but hopefully you guys aren't getting
bored of it as here's another little update. Tim sent us some pics
of a late week session he had last week. Unfortunatley Ronald took
his ankle out on a 360 and it looks like he's gonna be sidelined
for two weeks or so. It did however give him the time to shoot these
snaps of Tim's two newest tricks.

Valentine's
Session
Today we got an email from Tim (Dell) and JL (Justin Lopes) with
pics of their Valentine's session at Brightwater. We were as shocked
as you to find out they are dating, it was news to us. We hope they
had a lovely Valentine's together but by the looks of it they had
a swinging time.

Local Brightwater shredder Justin Lopes has just picked up a full
page interview in the latest Locally Whipped Magazine. This image
is too small to read properly, but head on out to your local news
agent and pick up a copy. Well done Justin, you deserve it.

February 2008 Sundays
at Ronnies
Rain sucks most of the time but it does have it's benefits. Take
last week for example. Ronald's place had been looking a little
worn out and dry but after all the rain we have been having in Joburg
it gave Devin, Tim and Ronald the perfect opportunity to service
the jumps. All three worked like mules and the result was a Sunday
session at its best with the jumps running smoother than ever.
Here is Devin making the most of the conditions. His 360's get
so nosed it's amazing. He also just learned how to do textbook inverts.
Between riding he also picked up the camera to take some of the
pics you see in this post.
Heres Paul Soderland showing why you should ride with a shirt when
doing armpit buzzing tables and what the definition of the word
clicked is.
Ronald's riding is getting better by the day. Maybe it's because
he can ride his jumps whenever he wants. When not tweaking the motor
of his Caddy he's throwing shit like this:
Tim loves trails and it shows. His riding is so smooth and stylish
over dirt. He's got the basics dialed: inverts - check, turndowns
- check, no footed cans - check, style - oh yes!
Below - pic of session shot by Devin Toselli.
The V (Tyrone Bradley) in action. Old school to the max with a
can can and marking the end of the first Feb update.
