Award winning, The Collective is the collaborative work from some of the world's best mountain bikers and their words, ideas, and most importantly their riding. The film Roam is the second film from the Collective and looks to follow on from the success of the first film by continuing to showcase the sport of mountain biking in a unique and spectacular way; in particular by finding the threads that join like-minded people who are immersed in a journey of mountain biking.

The forums contain a great wealth of information. You can find race results, post photos, hookup for rides, research products, learn how to keep your bike running and do so much more..
However, despite having a relatively good search function, finding the right information in a timely manner can be quite a task.
Fear no more! Bring on the Fiki.
Fiki you say, what the hell is that? Fiki is a Wiki. A Wiki is basically an online encyclopedia that is made from user submitted articles. In a way it is like a forum where everyone contributes content, but the content is really well formatted and easy to find.
Right now you're probably quite confused still, so I'll just point you to it. You can figure what I'm talking about simply by checking it out here.
Right now there's not alot of information, but as more and more people contribute it will expand and become huge!

Hypnosis Visual Intensity is a great follow up to Clay Porters last film, Synopsis.
Samaria Mountain Bike Promotions will play host to the Melbourne Premiere of Hypnosis Visual Intensity. It is going to be held at The Royal Park Hotel, corners of Howard St & Queensberry St, North Melbourne on Friday the 28th of April from 6.30pm till late.
This night is for SMBP club members only. We have booked out the whole pub. If your not already a member you can join at the door as a social club member for only $5 (this will only take about 5 seconds as we don't need many details at all for you to sign as a social club member). Once a member this will allow you free entry to future events that we hold. You don't need to be a DH rider to join... In fact you don't even need to own a bike. So bring everyone that you know who likes a good night out even if they don't ride bikes!!! The more the merrier.
There will be great pub meals on offer for only $10 which includes a pot of beer (or soft drink)!!! Meals include Parma's, Burgers, Veggie Lasagne, fish'n'chips. The chef is awesome, his meals are great so come along for a feed as its well worth it.
Great news for everyone that’s underage. Finally a video premiere that you can attend.. Sorry, no alcohol for you guys though. But your all still welcome to come along for the movies, food, and soft drinks!
Spread the word as its only next Friday night!!!! |

112 pages of DH, MtnX, and DJ goodness. From one side of the globe and back, issue number five of Clict has all the movements from the epic Euro road trip that saw the gang in France, Italy, Scotland and England.
There is coverage from the DH and MtnX series around Australia as well as full coverage of the Australian DH and MtnX Championships at Thredbo.
Be sure to get your ticket for Sam-a-palooza and join the party in WA.
If that’s not enough, there are plenty of interviews including Rob Eva, Alex Rankin, and Dave Weagle to name a few, plus a massive hard tail shootout and plenty of other bike and product reviews.
