I filmed this little piece with Dave throughout the summer during a few weekend trips around British Columbia. Dave is an absolute animal when it comes to going full speed at anything. Neither dirt, street or park is safe when the metal starts rollin'.
On Nov. 14, 1970, the first-ever competitive BMX race was held by Scot Breithaupt in Long Beach, California. Six years ago in November, 2010, Los Angeles County proclaimed an official “BMX Day” to commemorate the sport’s 40th anniversary.
A perfect weekend to watch the best Mountain Bike and BMX freestyle bikers in Premià de Dalt (Barcelona). The contest will have more than 120 top international riders who will finish up their season in this freestyle party, which will combine amateur and pro contests. On the weekend of 18th and 19th of October, the la Poma BikePark, in Premià de Dalt (Barcelona), will host for the 7th time the Happy Ride Weekend.
For this edition, the Happy Ride Weekend will have the best riders including the Catalan Red Bull rider, Andreu Lacondeguy, who has just landed from Utah where he has won the Red Bull Rampage 2014, the most prestigious and broadly known contest that combines freeride, freestyle, downhill and slopestyle. There will also be other riders like Xavi Pasamonte, MTB Dirt winner at the Extreme Barcelona 2014 and at the last Masters of Dirt; also the English rider Matt Jones, Yannick Granieri and Tomas Lemoune coming all the way from France, Alessandro Barbero from Italy and the 14 year old rider from Argentina,
Inaki Mazza, amongst many others.
The qualifiers will take place on Saturday October 18th, and the big PRO Mountain Bike and BMX Super Finals will be celebrated on Sunday October 19th.
