BMX World Championship Finals

... were shown on BBC2 this afternoon. I caught the last of the semis and the 2 finals. These were really exciting, with surprise winners in both the men's and women's events.

I'm now officially jealous of anyone that has tickets for these events at the Olympics.

I've never seen any BMX before but went with a group on the Friday night. Incredible transformation of the NIA if you've ever seen it in it's normal flat "showground" mode. Video showing how they did it...

Yeah, I caught that as well. Maybe if they rode bikes that fitted them they'd fall off less often?
