Last week we got invited to visit a Red Bull X-Fighters event from up close. We received the invite from Red Bull and when they invite you for a good time, you better grab the opportunity. The parking pass we got brought us straight to the shuttle. The shuttle brought us straight to the VIP tent. In the VIP tent we went straight to the (open) bar. Man, things were already looking good! With a bit of persuasion we made it to the riders area and then to the stands where we met up with our BMX crowd. The sold out crowd loved the FMX show but we loved the afterparty even more. We ended up staying in 2 star Hotel Le Vito. One star on the hood, one star on the back. Enjoy the pics.

In the bike business you might as well claim your own invention before other people walk away with the idea and tell  everyone they've got a new product out. The Stolen Bikes S.I.C. post might not be widely available at the moment but fgive it some time and also you will be able to get your hands on one. Here are a few features of the new post:
-Compatible with all pivotal seats

Daniel Dhers overcame a tour stop that had given him trouble in the past. Daniel never had good luck in Portland until he put the hammer down in his first run to win BMX Park. Mike Spinner had an outstanding run that included a quad whip and a 1080 but Dhers came out of the gate with a run that included a 720 can/can, nipple tuck, Alleyoop 3 whip transfer, and a huge double whip air.

With four REDLINE Global Team members - Damien Godet (France), Manuel DeVecchi (Italy), Rob van den WILDENBERG and Raymon van der BEIZEN (both from The Netherlands) in the Semi’s, there was the rare possibility that Flight bikes could’ve filled half of the gate in the Olympic main. But REDLINE would gladly settle for 2 out of the 8.
