-Ryan Nyquist has been working on his Wood Warrior contest and things are looking good. It's more of a dirt jump contest but then on wood, without the dirt. If that makes sense. Expect big hits up there in NorCal. Check the FATBMX event calendar for more details.
-For some reason new magazines arrive all at the same time. The New RIDE UK dropped on the doormat and also the new BMX Plus! issue. Haven't even finished reading Session. The new issue of Freedom is on its way and so is RIDEBMX hopefully. Either in the mail or digitally.
Let's turn this over to DJ:
-After how ever may beers & half my bottle of Jack on Saturday night in Duisburg Paul "Coach" De Jong taught himself to talk Arabic.

Ben "Hell for Leather" Hennon is moving to the South of France. Hennon will be down there for around 4 months in which time he'll travel Europe taking in FISE & The Worlds & generally being awesome whilst wearing a denim jacket.

Not to London Metropolitan Police: Frank Lukas is a TOURIST, not a TERRORIST.
Did you check out the ebay auction I mentioned last week? If so then you'll love this link as the guy who posted the original auction now has his own website! Peep it, it's sick to the power of Rad, he's even got a hot pic of his mother on there! I'm going to get an interview or something for fatbmx very soon!

-On 3 May we're putting on another trails jam. This time in Helmond, NL. The place needs some shaping up and putting on a jam is good to get people together to get the job done. Thanks to everyone who has already lent a hand. One week to go and the place will be all right. There will be a little race on the pump track for the kids (till 12 years old) and a jam session on the bigger jumps. Over 1000 cyclists will pass by the jumps that day (Rondje Hellmond fietsdag maat!) so a good crowd is expected. More info HERE.

-A looping on a bike. This was done ages ago. Or at least the attempt was there. Check this clip and watch till the end for the stunt.
Enough news for today. Too sunny ouside to sit behind this computer. I'm out.
