About the Source BMX Battle of Hastings
The Source BMX Battle Of Hastings is presented by Monster, in association with Etnies and is proudly sponsored by BSD, Cinema, Cult, Federal and United.
The original Battle of Hastings took place in 1066 and this year with the 950 year festivities, we ?re putting Hastings back on the international contest scene with our version of the Battle of Hastings to celebrate the first big BMX contest at the Source Park.
There will also be an open qualifier event for all riders including AM’s at the Source Park on July 23rd, in support of BMX Day 2016.
The qualifier will select four riders to compete in the main Battle of Hastings competition. More info on the qualifier can be found at www.sourcebmx.com/boh
To say we’re excited about this is an understatement; putting on amazing events was our biggest motivation when getting the Source Park opened.
More details on the format and riders will be announced regularly, every Monday at 15:00 GMT, over the Summer months.
The Source BMX is proud to announce the first two teams of riders for the Battle Of Hastings to be held at The Source Park:
Team 1 : Ben Lewis (Captain, UK), Paul Ryan (UK), Devon Smilie (USA), Maxime Charveron (FRA)
Team 2 : Dakota Roche (Captain, USA), Alex Kennedy (UK), Trey Jones (USA), Sean Ricany (USA)
11 teams of The Worlds top riders will compete in an innovative format for a share of an 18,000 Euro prize purse on September 10-11th 2016.
After doing a BMX 'zine for ten years (1987 - 1996) FATBMX made it on the internet. The year was 1998. Here to stay.
