James & Arlene

By Felix | Published: August 29, 2010

After 9 and a half years, my good friends James & Arlene have finally tied the knot. Congratulations! Everything went smooth and I even heard it was ahead of schedule. I asked James a week ago if he was going to cry when Arlene walks down the aisle and he said “No! Hopefully not!” He was crying quite a bit and more. Sweet.

Welcome! Dianne was taking care of this table while I was ushering people in from the front door with “Desqi & the crew”.

The beautiful St Stephen’s at Willoughby.

The reception was at Zest. Here is the view overlooking Rose Bay.

The reception was fun. The speeches were great. They just kept getting better & funnier! Congratulations once again and I hope you both enjoy the European honeymoon! God bless!

Reign gets a shock

By Felix | Published: July 18, 2010

I went to see Mitch at Blackman‘s Parramatta to get my fork and shock serviced on my mountain bike. I had a feeling the shock wasn’t holding in the air pressure and I was right. There was an internal leak and a full rebuild would not have been worth it. I had to source a shock and TBSM had the Fox Float RP23 on sale for a very reasonable price compared to other local bike shops.

Progwars at The Wall

By Felix | Published: June 18, 2010

A high school mate recently got in contact with me and asked if I could take a few photos at a gig before they record their new album. Progwars was hosted at The Wall (Bald Faced Stag Hotel) in Leichardt and the music they played was Progressive Metal! It was very dark (the lighting) and loud, I have to thank James for the ear plugs.

VIP300

These shots were taken almost 2 years ago on a very very wet day. Ryan picked me up from work and I was hoping the sun will break through the clouds so I could get a few rays of light. It did! Then it started raining again. So anyway, I recently bumped into Ryan and he reminded me about these photos.

Farewell Alarice

By Felix | Published: June 6, 2010

This weekend we said bye to Alarice in a couple of ways. First we had steamboat! A perfect way to gather and eat food in this cold weather. We then made sure we all went to church to listen to her sing Sunday Afternoon, another nice song, Bobby on the drums and of course the sermon. For lunch we went to Chong Hing for some salt & pepper goodness and surprised her with an early birthday cake as she’ll be in Singapore for a year or so on tour.
Watch out for Alarice at the Singapore 2010 Youth Olympic Games!
We’ll miss you! God Bless!

Check out her music here. Follow her on Twitter here.

CareFlight Ride

By Felix | Published: June 3, 2010

Unfortunately I’m no longer co-driving at the Australian Tarmac Challenge. This means I can now ride at the Woodford to Glenbrook Classic without the fear of being tired from a full day of car racing. Next time.
Last year I had a very silly stack in the beginning and after I was patched up, I managed to ride the trail in approximately 1hr 3mins.
I’m hoping this year I’ll be able to ride it in less than 55 minutes. To help motivate me train for this, please support me with a secure online donation.

Please click on the above image to raise much needed funds for CareFlight to save lives.

Vivid

It’s that time of the year again where the streets & landmarks of Sydney light up in the cold winter. Here’s a photo of the Opera House from the last night of the 2009 Vivid Festival. I expect to be flooded with everyone’s photos from Vivid very soon.

JDMST EOMM May 2010

By Felix | Published: May 30, 2010

Despite the weather, this End of Month Meet was massive. The carpark was full and cars were parked all the way down to the end of the street! Andy, a mate that I met at IPC is back in Sydney to do a bit of filming. He covered last week’s WTAC and did a bit of shooting at the meet. Hopefully you’ll see me in some TV show haha. Van from Melbourne also came up for this meet and it was great to finally meet him since we missed each other when we went down to Melbourne last November.

Check out the rest of the coverage here on JDMST.
