Yesterday was all about the bikes, with the Queenstown Mountain Bike Club's inaugural Buy, Sell and Shred day drawing aficionados from far and wide.

It began with the morning's bike sale, from which an as yet unconfirmed amount of money will go towards trail-building, and the afternoon was an opportunity for 70 riders take to the hill for Queenstown's first Downhill Southern Series race.

Queenstown Times reporter Joe Dodgshun joined them with his camera.
