Lachie Roycroft at Warrnambool Skate Park in Warrnambool, Australia - photo by patto

Lachie hasn't been riding that much lately due to football commitments (coughgaycough)... But don't worry, this summer there will be plenty of Warrnambool trips per week to ride the new extensions and the amazing mini! THE BEST EVER MINI!!!!

Photo of the Day on Oct 2, 2011 - more PODs

Selected by Ian Hylands - Really solid lighting and composition in this shot, love the sky in the background as well. Not to mention the nicely inverted downside.

freeryde-mtb (Oct 2, 2011 at 9:15)

b4life (Oct 2, 2011 at 18:38)

Mosher, they're both on concrete! Stop hatin, i was nice about the photo...

I Like this photo, but I just gotta say something.

BMX guys do some stuff like this and take really nice photos, get no attention.

all of a sudden a mtb does it and its like he's pro for airing out.

/rant
Still deserves pod, but just had to say it.

brett236 (Oct 4, 2011 at 16:19)

f*ck that man, anything cooked over a fire at the trails is the best. can of beans and some dogs are the best at the trails.

wolfe38 (Oct 5, 2011 at 8:28)

nothing really beats that, you're right. this conversation is over. hahah

This photo is even better to look at when your as drunk as I am right now. Awsome composition and lighting ! Great choice Ian H.

njdfan101 (Oct 2, 2011 at 1:52)

A drunk person wouldn't have that good spelling or grammar. Either you faking it or you have a slight buzz at the most.

QCIrider77 (Oct 2, 2011 at 9:45)

Lol, was not faking, am now lying in bed somewhat hungover, believe me that comment took quite some time to perfect before it was submitted:p

wolfe38 (Oct 2, 2011 at 9:48)

exactly what i was thinking. you do not lose your ability to spell immediately when you become drunk. and you can still spell just fine hammered if given the time. especially with that amazing tool called autocorrect.
