Just like that, the 2022 USA BMX National season is under way. One goal this year, WIN as much as possible. Stoked to be aboard the Chase Bicycles Team and I'll be running those colors proudly! First stop is at Okeeheelee BMX in West Palm, FL. Next stop will be Houston, TX back at the Rockstar Energy Bike park in March.
Setting new goals for the new year is something most of us do. How can you better yourself? Is my training on point or is there someone out there who can teach me more? Is my equipment on point? Should I try a longer frame? Should I switch to carbon? Today we're checking in with GT's Camille Maire from France.
Name: Camille Maire
Age: 27
Hometown: Saint Etienne, France
Sponsors: DN sarrians, GT BMX Factory
Did 2021 turn out the way you wanted?
Camille Maire: Not really. My main goal was to get the ticket to the Olympics. I ended with the alternate place! Then, the world championship didn’t go as planned with a crash in the semi final. I also got disqualified for no reason after the semi at the European Championship. Tough season!
With the start of the new year, are you always looking to become a faster racer?

2022 USA BMX Sunshine State Nationals PreRace. We're live from West Palm Beach, Florida!
Final video of the trip to Colombia I did with Simon Marquart. This time we traveled to the north to ride the track in Santa Marta and finish the trip in Barranquilla.
After doing a BMX 'zine for ten years (1987 - 1996) FATBMX made it on the internet. The year was 1998. Here to stay.
