What's Up From Rhys Hillier

Written by Goba Thursday, 29 July 2010 09:25

Hey guys, just a quick one to let you know what's been happening with me of late.

I Had a session last weekend with Stono, Truman an young Tom Robinson, and it was cool to finally get some guys down to my joint for a ride. That was all good and there's a handful of pics for you guys to check out here from that session.

Razzy has been doing enough to keep his tricks dialed!

Other than that not too much has been happening of late, pretty quite on the show front, but been riding enough to keep my tricks and confidence sweet. About all that's happening soon is the Underground tour at my joint, and I'm still trying on a NZ deal in September, but the guy has gone cold so I'm not sure what the go is, kinda frustrating!

I turned down a gig with Appsy in Mongolia, it sounded all good but I wasnt keen on going to Mongolia and riding a YZ, and I was spendin some quality time with the missus an little guy, and I figure you pass one up an something else will come along my way soon and make up for it ... here's hoping!

Up yours mate!

I've got fairly good assurance that I'll be on the Crusty Capitol city tour later on in the year, things chop and change, but I'd say its looking good for me! Possibly doing a signing in Melbourne at the end of August for Crusty/Crazy Johns.

Also coming up is the big FMX comp that Joel Balchin is putting on in Sydney called Australian FMX Pro, I'll most definitely be heading up there an having a squirt and see how I go, apparently there's some good prizemoney on offer, which is a good thing for the sport.

Whip Flip from Razzy

Apart from that not much news to tell, I ruined a swingarm because my sprocket bolt came loose an peirced into the side of it, which has kept that bike on the stand for a few weeks but should be good to go soon.

Seems to be quite at the moment in Oz, I don't know if its just me or if other guys are feelin the same thing ... Keep your ears out if someones looking for a rider at a show.

Catch you soon, Rhys.
