Having an indoor spot to ride during the wintertime is so good. And Peter Geys over in Eksel, Belgium has one. It's in the back of his 900 shop which gives him a sweet place to ride, and also his customers. Not only do they ride there, Peter does BMX courses teaching the kids how to do certain tricks. He makes them feel comfortable on the bike and when a rider wants to learn something, the bike devil will point them in the right direction. But on Saturday it was all about the Winterjam, the third event at the BMX park.
When we got in, loads of riders were waiting their turn to get a run in. It had a smaller section for the beginners, a section with a box jump and two quarters, and the spine miniramp. It doesn't take too many people to fill the place up but riders took their turn and showed what they got. Every rider who paid the 5 Euros to session was given a piece of paper where they had to fill in three names that they thought should make the 8-man final later on. At 4pm a little break was on the program for the Bunny Hop contest.
