Jon Olsson Messenger Mattias Fredriksson/Red Bull photofiles

Time to check up on our athletes for the first time in 2011 and find out how they’re getting on as we search the Tweets, Facebook walls and homepages of the Red Bull stars.


 

I think the Monaco Tivoli did a great job to top off the vacation! It’s really been a great one, I did not do anything crazy at all, no Miami like last year, no crazy parties, just a lot of time to rest up and get ready to start working again! I can really feel the effect already as new ideas are shooting back into my head every second!

Is Wells leaving the vault open to make a statement of how beefy this thing is or are they out of paper?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We’ve all been there. After all the excesses of the holidays, motorbike stunt rider Aaron Colton finds himself staring into an empty bank account. twitter.com/Aaroncolton

 


 

1000 followers, on the nose. Does this validate me in some weird way?

Spencer O’Brien is also crunching the numbers to discover 1000 people are hanging on her every Tweet. twitter.com/spencerobrien

 


 

So did anybody else have problems with their alarm clock going off this morning on the iPhone?

New Year’s Day finds New Orleans Saints star Reggie Bush having an unintentional lie-in as he oversleeps…  twitter.com/sReGgie_Bush

Apparently there was a big glitch in the iPhone 4 system and no alarms worked today!

… at least, that’s Reggie’s excuse for being late for training and he’s sticking to it!

 


 

Ok, I know it sounds boring but i did sleep way before midnight last night ;) as usual... haha but had a great start to 2011

Early to bed and early to rise... maybe Reggie could take a leaf out of Maya Gabeira's book. twitter.com/MGABEIRA

 


 

Wish it could last a bit longer but I got to go. It's been so good to have some sun and summer. This will be the long trip for me. I am away from home for about 4 maybe 5 months now which sucks so much but it is definitely worth everything I get in return. Hopefully it is a long, successful and injury free season.

Flying from Australia to the USA for your first day back at work is a long commute by anyone’s standards. Russ Henshaw gets emotional as he says goodbye to the sun and sandy beaches of Australia.  www.russhenshaw.squarespace.com

 


 

Out trying to fish but my boat battery is dead. I hate fishing anyway. Going to shoot some birds or if I'm lucky an eagle. Golfing...

Supercross star James Stewart is also loosening up by playing a round before he gets back into action this weekend. twitter.com/js7

 


 

Our team mechanics have moved into our house & R getting stuck into 2011! So excited! Hope the cats don't give em too much shit. literally!

Mountain bike rider Rachel Atherton is also tuning up for 2011. Maybe a good place to start is by putting the cat out?http://twitter.com/rachelatherton

 


 

Checking out the fish tank.. we lost one during my 3 week stint away from home. Moment of silence for Banks, please.

Grete Eliassen returns home to find herself one fish down. Two people 'liked' this the last time we checked... facebook.com/Grete-Eliassen
