BMX racing, how hard could it be?.. Surely it's not that different to mountain biking. However, it's been a while since Blake has raced on wheels this small, so before the big event he heads to the pump track to get some practice in. Blake Samson gets some much-needed coaching from former British BMX champion John Twitchen. But you'll have to wait until next week to see if any of his training pays off!
