Bike Hall Contest 2010 was fun, and sad at the same time for me. Out of all the contests I have been to in Europe, the fans were one of the loudest and craziest in Troutnov, Czech Republic. The course was really fun, 6 foot box, 7 foot spine, 10 foot vert quarter, big step up, lots of transfers, what else can you wish for? Not a broken foot for sure. The contest was great, in a hockey arena packed with fans. Out of over 70 qualifying pros, from all over Europe, twenty-two went to finals, with me in the lead.
After the finals, Czech guys
Michael Beran and
Zdenda Pesek were on the podium, along with my brother, representing me. I was in the hospital with a broken foot, dissapointed that I won't be able to ride FISE in Montpellier. I had lots of fun in Czech, and am looking forward to getting back on the bike in 6 weeks.
Results: 1. Michael Beran
2. Nicholi Rogatkin
3. Zdenda Pesek
