Maybe not Flaming Hot, but the jam at the Flame Trails sure was a good little session with those who wanted to ride some dirt. The dirt spot in Brandevoort maybe isn't too impressive if you're used to massive downhill trails but it even got the street dawgs off the concrete park to give it a go, and they did well! Riding dirt is something everyone should try and the spot next to Sportpark Brandevoort is the perfect place to start. Rollers, tables, small doubles, big turns, roll-in, kids track, it's got everything one needs to give it a shot.

After some good sunshine, putting up some flags, an EZ-UP and some banners, we enjoyed a cup of coffee at the Sportpark cantine. At 1pm whoever had shown up got to ride the trails with no care in the world. Nothing on the schedule but doing laps, jumping jumps and pumping rollers. Again and again. For those who don't know, it's a damn good work-out. But no one on top forces you to do another run when you're not ready. BMX is cool like that, you make your own decisions.
