SMX is heading back to LA. 🤘

A lot of amazing memories inside that stadium over the years. X Games, McGrath Invitationals… always a damn good time and a pretty special place for our sport.

One thing’s for sure — there won’t be much mud or deep ruts this weekend. 😂 More like dust, hardpack and concrete.

LA always brings a different vibe. Looking forward to seeing SMX back in the stadium. 🏁 by @mike_sleeter

Special ✈️ delivery . The @ridebonnell 805 has landed in Australia 🇦🇺 equipped with @ridesirris . Today I built out two road show units while @maseman128 @noahsleeter and @gdick90 shook one down in the paddock across the street.

I’m excited to get some dealers on this bike as it’s unlocked and all new opportunities for the midsize space. taken in Gold Coast, Queensland by @mike_sleeter

It’s pretty wild and honestly a little emotional to see Mom and Dad’s house officially on the market after being in our family for 50 years.

This isn’t just a house to us. Dad built this entire home with his own two hands, and over the last five decades it became the backdrop to so much of our family’s life.

So many memories were made here — birthdays, Christmas dinners, New Year’s parties, family get-togethers, and countless moments that probably didn’t seem significant at the time but mean everything now.

It’s hard to put into words what it feels like seeing it listed for sale. There’s a lifetime of memories inside those walls, and I’ll always be grateful that Mom and Dad created a home where our family could make so many of them.

A huge thank you to Mike Gilstrap for all the hard work, time and care he put into getting the house back up to scratch and ready for sale. He treated Mom and Dad’s home like it was his own, and our family is incredibly appreciative of everything he’s done.

Definitely the end of an era, but also a chance for another family to make their own memories in a pretty special place.

50 years. One home. A lifetime of memories. ❤️

Excited to be joining @ridebonnell and helping lead business development across Australia and New Zealand.

The product range brings together two of my biggest passions—mountain biking and motorcycles. Bonnell is building products that sit right at the intersection of those worlds, and I’m excited to help bring them to more riders.

The 805 is a major part of that. It fills a genuine gap in the market and delivers something riders have been looking for but haven’t had access to. I believe it has a huge opportunity to change the game in the mid size range

What also gets me fired up is the chance to work closely with and support the engineering and R&D teams—connecting what they’re building with what riders, dealers, and the market need.

We’ll be tackling the US, Australian and New Zealand markets alongside an incredible group of engineers from Australia and around the world.

A lot to build LFG! #TunedForEpic #RideBonnell #Bonnell by @mike_sleeter

Damn, I feel blessed.

The last two years have been taxing, losing Mom and Dad. As I stand here in China on my 46th birthday, I can’t help but think about all the sacrifices they made for me and everything they did to help me become the man I am today.

My beautiful wife @sarahsleeter, always backing me, believing in me, and riding through it all by my side. ❤️

Today, I turn 46 and find myself thinking about what the younger version of me would think of the 46-year-old version standing here today.

I think he’d be pretty f’n stoked. And maybe even a little impressed.

Besides the dad bod… haha.

Feeling grateful. Feeling blessed. Missing Mom and Dad like hell. And excited for whatever comes next. ❤️ by @mike_sleeter

Every journey has its season, and for me, this chapter has come to an end.

I was fortunate enough to be one of the first people in the world to test ride the Stark VARG. The moment I got off the bike, I knew I wanted to be part of something special. Once I arrived back in Aus I asked @jeffleisk for a job.

That conversation changed everything.

From the media launch and helping change the landscape of moto, to meeting incredible dealers around Australia and New Zealand and working alongside an amazing team, it’s been a journey I’ll always be grateful for. Having Motorcycling Australia and Motorcycling NZ open the door for electric bikes to race against combustion was a huge milestone, and personally, winning a national vet title on the VARG along side @reardon110 is something I’ll always be proud of.

Having the opportunity to work alongside @jeffleisk and Ian Calvesbert was an absolute honour. His passion, leadership and belief in the vision made every day an opportunity to learn and grow.

The memories, friendships, challenges and achievements have shaped me in ways I’ll never forget.

While it’s bittersweet to say goodbye, it’s time for me to move on and embrace the next adventure.

To everyone at Stark Future, our dealers, partners and the entire community—thank you for the trust, the support and the unforgettable memories. I’ll always be proud to have been part of this incredible journey.

Here’s to new beginnings. ⚡ taken in Gold Coast, Queensland by @mike_sleeter
