Wednesday the 16th is a public holiday and to celebrate Youth Day, Gen-X park is having a BMX comp. Things kick off at 4pm, so be there early to get some good warm up runs in. Entry to the park for the day is R20, wether you watch, ride or enter the comp it's still R20. Bargain!
It will be a combined dirt AND park comp giving riders the option to ride ANYTHING in the park they want. Hit the dirt jumps, the bowls and then the park (or visa versa) 'till you puke!
Confirmed prizes so far are from Giant and Vans Shoes. More details to follow.
I'll be working on the jumps this weekend and they should be running by Wed. This will be a good time. Spread the word and DON'T MISS THIS ONE!
UPDATE: The jumps are looking way better than last week and there are now 3 jumps and a large 1/4 pipe at the end as well as a monster roll-in to start things off.
CT's best riders are coming out for this with guys like Stephen Savage, Malcolm Peters, Werner M, Werner H, Killian, Paul Brusser, Wayne Reiche(back from injury?), Carl, Wayne Gorton, Scott Owen, Brandon Blight, etc all saying that they are coming through. The Gen-X locals are on fine form too with Jason Batt placing 3rd at the Son Skate comp this past Sat. Things are going to get crazy for sure.
Weather predictions are for no rain on Wednesday but the rush will be on to empty the bowls. Anyone planning to come early on the day, your help would be great.
SEE YOU ALL THERE.
