Bike
Andreu Lacondeguy spent some time in New Zealand at the back-end of February where he attended the Farm Jam contest for the first time.
The invitation to come and attend Farm Jam from event sponsor UNIT was sweetened by the opportunity for Andreu to spend 10 days in and around the contest riding mountain bikes, FMX motorbikes and BMX around the picturesque mountains surrounding the town of Queenstown in southern New Zealand.
Staying in Queenstown was an eye-opener for Andreu. The small town had a lot to offer extreme bike sports. There were the fast trails of Skyline Bike Park, the big downhill jumps in the Wynyard area as well as access to some of the best-shaped dirt jumps in the world on the Farm Jam course. All of this within an easy drive of the town.
An already fruitful trip was of course made even better by Andreu winning the first prize in the MTB Freeride competition at Farm Jam but for Andreu this trip was about much more. It was about chilling, riding and having fun.
Nick Pescetto was on hand to document Andreu’s adventures down under with his video camera. Check out Nick’s six minute clip of the riding action and antics from the trip.
