Josh Bryceland doesn’t need much of an intro. He rides for the Santa Cruz Syndicate, previous world champ, one of the most stylish riders on the WC circuit and a brit.
He rides at home most of the time with Sam Dale, so while filming for the film Locals2 over the course of a few days I got some photos of the two mucking about. It's a bit of everything and more importantly just good fun...
Locals2 is supported to date by Pinkbike.com , J-Tech Suspension and Banshee Bikes. To get involved contact Jacob via his website (link at bottom).

Not a lot to say here, ha ha!

Striking a pose with the bike against the autumn colours of the woods
Again but looking slightly more normal

Doing a small whipper
Heading back to the van
Then it was time for some HT action in the pissing rain
What better gear to wear than shorts and a beater?
Falling off and skiing on mud
Riding just for fun
Skids are cool
Just having fun and timing it right
Looking a bit muddy
Styling it up in the rain down at the local pump track
Then it was time for a quick blast on the XC bike
Tearing it up on the XC bikes
Pinning through the woods
Few details from the much abused racing transit
Some embarrassing family photos and other bits and bobs in his house
We then went and met up with another one of the guys from round there and hit the TTRs
Jim Stock, another local and rider.The bikes after a few hours hard riding
Swift stop by his canal boat he will be moving into soon
Josh's whole family history is on the canals, so it's no surprise that he wants to live on them...
And ending up in the pub with a pint...a pretty sweet life

But I wanted to ask the reporter... This is a SantaCruz advertising or what???
