FISE World Series second stop will take place in Croatia from July15th to 23rd in the City of Osijek. After the first stop of the tour in Montpellier and its huge crowd, the FISE World Series is ready for the second stop in Croatia and will be featuring the UCI BMX Freestyle Park World Cup 2016. The location of the event is called Copacabana, just next to the river Drava and the beautifull fortified city of Osijek. If you get confused about the pronunciation, try replacing ‘ij’ with ‘y’, and say Osyek.
UCI BMX Freestyle Park World Cup.
For the first time in its history, BMX Freestyle Park becomes a recognized bicycle discipline, as it is now certified by the UCI. This novelty in the cyclist world is the result of a great collaboration between Union Cyclist International (UCI) and FISE (Festival International des Sports Extrêmes) through the launch of the UCI BMX Freestyle Park World Cup. The first stop ever was during FISE World Montpellier in May and the top 3 are Alex Coleborn (UK), Daniel Dhers (Ven) and Mike Varga (Can).
After doing a BMX 'zine for ten years (1987 - 1996) FATBMX made it on the internet. The year was 1998. Here to stay.
