Ryan Guettler down under update

Friday, January 5th, 2007

Guettler Signed Black PearlGotta have wheelsRyan Guettler recently saw his first Mirraco Black Pearl LTD bike in Australia at the Mirraco dealer, Helensvale Cyclescene on the Gold Coast. Mitch who runs the store, asked if Ryan could sign the bike for them & he happily obliged. Ryan has also recently bought himself a nice little run around car whilst here in Australia. A 5.7L Holden Monaro, black of course!! Imagine the car here but in black… not bad for a run around car while back home for a few months !

Ryan found his signature bike in a bike shopRyan Guettler & the whole Colony team (Dave Freimuth, Pete Radivo, Kenny Raggett, Nick Richardson, Haimona Ngata & myself - Clint Millar) will be in Sydney for the BMX Games after we hit up the Spinal Disorder in Beenleigh later this month. We all then head over to NZ for a tour of the south island for a week before going to X-Air in Wellington. Should be a great month of riding & travelling & all will be documented on a tour DVD as well as stories in both Ride UK & 2020BMX. The DVD will be released around June this year.

Dave Mirra on the internet

Friday, January 5th, 2007

Dave Mirra feeling good at the warehouseWhen Dave Mirra started MirraCo Bikes about a year ago he created another platform on the internet, the mirrabikeco.com site. Dave did not want to be put on a pedestal and wanted his fellow team riders to shine as much as himself. That does not mean that Dave has become invisible on the internet.

We have found a few sites that have all kind of information on “The Mirracle Boy”. Some need some serious updating and others have some wrong information so don’t believe everything you read. Here’s a selection:

- A timeline of Dave’s career on 23Mag

- Dave’s results and info on a fairly well updated Wikipedia page
