Back in 1990 we were happy to see that the local council had given us a place to ride our bikes in the dirt. That place at De Valkendijk needed some work and in April we invited over some friends for a session to open up the outdoor season. That turned out to be the first Mini FATJAM, the little brother of the summer edition of the annual FATJAM that started a few years before that. Anyway, fast forward 25 years and the dirt spot at De Valkendijk is still there being used by the BMX locals all year. Two days out of the year it's time to prepare the jumps a little better for the visitors. This year the season opener will take place on March 28th, the 25th edition of the Mini FATJAM.

Once again the happening will be free for all BMX riders. You show up and you ride whatever you want to ride. The small lines, the bigger line, some flatland on the grass, 040BMX Airbag or the mini ramp in town. It's time to ride BMX on March 28th and we've got more goodies than ever before so leaving Aarle-Rixtel without some sort of prize is next to impossible as long as you're riding the Sugar Hills Trails.

When the jam is over, part two of the event starts: The Afterparty! more details on that will follow later. OJA, Schoolstraat 2, #AleBlie.
For now, just make sure you have a place to stay for the night of March 28th. Here's an option:
