The 2024 Olympic Games feature BMX Racing and BMX Freestyle Park. They're only a few weeks away. Riders have been working hard for years trying to get a spot on their National Olympic team to represent their country in their sport. Announcements have been made of riders that are chosen. Equipment has been prepared to look the part once the action starts in Paris. For BMX Racing the track is located just outside of Paris at Saint-Quentin-en-Yvelines. BMX Freestyle will take place in the city centre of Paris at Place de la Concorde. The pressure is on to perform at the biggest stage in sports. The platform will be used to put BMX in the spotlight on a global scale.
We wish all riders who made it the best of luck. Enjoy the experience. In this post we will show the latest announcements, the equipment, the special paint jobs as everyone is getting ready.
The date for BMX Freestyle:
30 July qualification. 31 July finals.
One of my subscribers gave me the idea to do a bike check of my 2012 and 2016 Olympic bikes and see what was different, so here it is! I thought it was interesting seeing what the differences were. Which do you like better?
After doing a BMX 'zine for ten years (1987 - 1996) FATBMX made it on the internet. The year was 1998. Here to stay.
