Riders and fans defy heat at Snipes BMX Cologne
Jul 25, 2014
For four days – from Thursday through Sunday – the riders at the Snipes BMX Cologne demanded everything from their 20-inch wheels: amateurs as well as the pros ignored the heat, and about 10,00 fans and friends were awed by the never-before-seen tricks at the Cologne Jugendpark, in spite of temperatures of up to 37°C. The 30th edition of the world‘s oldest and most important BMC contest, under the leadership of Stephan Prantl, presented its participating riders with three very special courses. With the construction of a Dirt Line of 1000 tons of clay and cement under the Zoo Bridge, a SuperBowl built like an arena, and a Flatland course on an Autoscooter, the organizers met the wishes of numerous BMXers from around the world.
