TIM HALES PHOTOS Monday, September 29, 2008 Here is a bunch of photos I pulled of my computer of Tim, some of them date back maybe 6 years, and most of them are taken at his local parks he rode the most, Whakatane, Raglan and Melville Hamilton.
Check out the photo of him on his legendary side-hack, and the one fresh after he knocked his teeth out at the 'another chance of death' comp trying to pedal grind the 12 stair hand rail.. Tim was definitely the king of good times and shredding!!             I'm pretty sure Lester has a bunch of good photos of Tim too, in fact I know he does, so hopefully he post them!! R.I.P TIM HALES **UPDATE BELOW** TIM HALES T's Monday, September 22, 2008 For those of you who knew Tim.. we have lost a great friend.. so many good memory's of amazing guy .. ride on Tim.. we will truly miss you and will never forget you!!
     OFFICIAL TIM HALES T's.. We are getting some Tim Hales T-Shirts made to celebrate his life. As you can tell by the amount of comments below Tim was one of the raddest guys ever, on and off his bike. We thought it would be a great way to show your support for his family and to have something to remember him by. We're selling the T's for $35 each, and the money is going to go to his family or the Whakatane SPCA (Tim loved cats). We have only got a limited amount printed at the moment because it's all we could afford. If we run out we'll get some more printed. So if you want one send me an email at zombie.bmx@gmail.com. Special thanks to Haimona for coming up with the design, Tim White and the Wazman for pitching in to get them printed. Also please note that they are avaliable in Grey and Purple. Not black as shown below.  Below is a little video Louis Bolter put together of Tim riding.. It was filmed only last week in Melbourne. Untitled from Louis Bolter on Vimeo.

 NEW FOCAL WEB VID Friday, September 19, 2008BRAND NEW SECOND HAND Thursday, September 18, 2008 I just got a new ride together after riding my old frame and fork for ages (and finding cracks in the fork!) I managed to get my hands on some second hand gear and built up this one with a few of my old bits. Only ridden it properly once, and so far so good... Thanks to Sam at RevolutionNZ for the frame, fork and bars, and Mike Davies for the cranks....Rad. T WHITES BIKES Mr Tim White who is a good friend of mine is opening a Bike shop in Auckland in the next few months called T Whites Bikes.. the shop is going to sell a mixture of bikes like cruisers and fixed gear bikes but is going to focus mainly on being a dedicated BMX shop. Tim has worked in the bike industry for 10 years including working in BMX shops in Canada and working at Woodward, and he's been riding BMX for even longer and still shread's too this day... so he is the perfect guy to run a shop in Auckland.
 His shop is opening sometime in November and will be located at 132 Symond St, which is a great location because it is very central and is a short ride from Vic Park. Anyway Ill keep you all update when I find out more news about T.Whites.Bikes. MORE JED MILDON PHOTOS Wednesday, September 17, 2008 Jed sent in a few more photos... check them!

PROPHECY UPDATE Tuesday, September 9, 2008WANAKA HAPZ AND SNAPS Monday, September 8, 2008 I meant to post this a while ago but have only just got around it.... opps! Anyway its a bunch of photos and news from our friend at true bmx in Wanaka. The first two photos are of Wanaka skatepark, James from Ture BMX is on the skate park committee and at the moment there in the process of getting some major additions to the park, the additions are going to be absolutely huge.. for example reefton is 2100sq meters an wanakas going to be just under 3000sq meters!!! f@#k!!! and apparently there pushing towards the lines of 10 and 8ft deep bowels and snake runs! (whats the f@#k is wrong with auckland city council!). Wanaka is also getting a new Jump Park and the locals are working on a set of private trails which is rad. And also Lake Hawea is also getting a brand new skate park... so its all go down south... there all ways seems to be a hand full of good reasons to go south.
      COUNCIL OF DOOM Ivan from Redbull/Steady Rollin' sent this through to me.. its a flyer a for the 'Council Of Doom' movie premier. Your probably wondering what the hell 'Council Of Doom' is.... well its a fixed gear thing... and I know this is a BMX site, but I also know there is a bunch of BMXers out there who would be keen to check this out so I thought it was worth a post!! It should be interesting.... and when Redbull is involved in anything it usually turns out to be a hell of allot of fun!!
