Exciting times and lots of news from the past AMAZING week here in Norway at the 2nd UCI BMX Supercross World Cup/Olympic qualifier of the year. Norway has certainly treated me well apart from everything being very expensive…comparison a Mc Donald's Big Mac Meal was about $17! I enjoyed lots of Norwegian salmon and in terms of results I pretty much had a flawless weekend. The track was built by Elite Trax in an indoor arena in the town of Randaberg a week 
Getting coverage isn't all that hard. You do something good, and people will show up with a camera to shoot you. At the FATJAMs in Aarle-Rixtel, you know the FATBMX crew will always be there. Same goes here, you do a trick, and most likely someone will snap a pic. This year I don't think anyone filmed the jam so you'll have to do with the photos we show you if you couldn't make it over yourself. We posted a report earlier but then FATBMX webmaster Jos Wissink sent over a bunch of awesome photos that we wanted to show you. Why not? Flip through the pics to see if you made it in. And there's always a next chance. Saturday 18 August the annual FATJAM will take place. Just write it down in your agenda already or type it in your phone. Make a note so you don't forget. Scoring a photo on FATBMX.com is easier than you think. And if the papparazi shows up at the afterparty in OJA, it's time to hide. 18 August it is...AIK!
