What is the best track you rode on in 2014?
Twan van Gendt: I just love the big tracks! Papendal And Chula vista (London). It’s wide open with some hard jumps.
What was the worst track you had to ride in 2014 in your opinion?
Twan van Gendt:I think the supercross indoor tracks, I don’t like them we have too much speed for going 3 or 4 wide into the first turn. Because of that there are too much unnecessary crashes.
Who did the raddest move on the track in 2014?
After doing a BMX 'zine for ten years (1987 - 1996) FATBMX made it on the internet. The year was 1998. Here to stay.
