BMX European Cup 2022 - Zolder, Belgium by Jay Schippers
Justin, Mitchel and I drove from Sarrians to Verona. We had a solid week of training and fun! Part 2 will be online soon.
Justin, Mitchel and I went to France to race our first race of the season, the Coupe De France in Sarrians.
Last weekend we had the European Championships. It was my first race back after my wrist injury. Felt good to be back, check out the video to see how my weekend went.

Who picks the frame colours each year? And are you happy with the current colours?
Jay Schippers: The guys at Meybo decide which colour we ride each year. I think the new 2021 colours are looking great!
What's the purpose of the chain device that you guys are running?
Jay Schippers: Because we have a fixed rear end and no real chain tensioners at the back of the frame. They have built a special tensioner that is mounted/integrated to the side of the frame. It is really easy to use if you have to change your gearing, you just slide it up or down.
Do you use the same bike for pump track / trail / jump sessions?
Jay Schippers: Yes I do. I used to have a special trail jump bike. But haven’t used it for a while now.
The first two rounds of the UCI BMX SX series where held in Shepparton, Australia. Take a look on how I did on the first race of the year.
After doing a BMX 'zine for ten years (1987 - 1996) FATBMX made it on the internet. The year was 1998. Here to stay.
