Hoffman Bikes says goodbye to team member Brandon Webster as he embarks on a new era of his life. As he is graduating high school this year, he has chosen another opportunity in his home country of Canada to continue his career in BMX. “There's no way I would be riding at the level I am now without Mat’s help and inspiration. Thank you for everything you have done for me,” Webster said. We wish him the best and will support his journey through the BMX family along the way.
Kirsten Dellar, Anthony Dean, Max Cairns and New Zealand’s Hannah Sarten were all Round 1 winners in Nerang at the BMX Australia National Series. Hot conditions met riders early as they practiced, though by race time a cooling breeze had taken the edge of the heat which was welcomed by both riders and spectators. All riders were out to impress, with Round 1 showing off those who came prepared having done their work during the off season.
