Now if you would ask what the new trends are in BMX after visiting the Eurobike show in Germany I'd have to say the following: Big Fat tires on the street bikes. Front and rear. Even up to 2.3 in the back but that Eastern tire looked even bigger. Heat treating is out, the frames won't last forever. Colours? Sure there are some but most companies go by a solid frame, with colour coordinated parts. It's the last year for purple to be cool. Saw a lot of orange (yes!). Brakeless bikes for street almost everywhere. Companies are still saving on weight left and right and in general the bikes are getting better and better. Check 'em:

So after a pretty long drive from Antwerp to Toulouse we came there and it was raining! Not too bad but bad enough to wreck the trails. After the rain we went to fix the trails, we were done and then it started to rain agian so we just had some drinks in the evening. Next day we went to do some sight seeing and afterwards we got to the trails. Only 2 lines were running and we only did 1 because it was so fun!
Next day we just stayed at the house and rode the mini ramp.
