UK Race Report´s Birmingham

 

Weather was very bad for the Birmingham Nationals which made conditions very tricky for all riders.

Good placing in the motos and semi saw him through to the final on the Saturday. Unfortunately riders stamping their feet at the back of the start gate resulted in him missing his timing on the gate and nearly going over the bars! He chased back from last place to finish a creditable 3rd. 

A repeat of the weather on the Sunday and also excellent performances in the motos and semi resulted in a place in the final. No such mistake on the gate today through! An excellent gate and first straight saw him pull a gap on the chasing riders going into the first corner. A perfect lap rewarded him with an excellent 1st. Place and extend his lead in the overall championship.

Rob, Ethan Vernon

 

This weekend didn't see me at my best, on Saturday my motos went ok with 1st and 2nds but my legs were like lead and as I went into the semis I found it really hard to find

the strength to gate properly and being in the 16's class when your behind it's hard to catch up and I got more and more frustrated with myself. I made it through to the final

but along the first straight I got pushed into another rider and as he took off for the next jump, I sort of got caught on his arm and went down. The fact that my Club team mate

won the race made me feel abit better ;)

Sunday went abit better, I won all motos and semi and went into the final feeling more confident. Gate was better and was in a great position in 4th to swoop under them all but

I got caught up in the berm and then had too much work to do, I finished in 3rd place. 

Paddy Sharrock

 

On day 1 I got a 2nd place and two 1st places in my motos. In my semi I picked lane 2 as I had first pick and also won my semi. In the final I had second pick and so chose lane 3. As it had been quite wet that day, the gate was very muddy and wet. Unfortunately, my wheel span on the gate and I was in 8th. I managed to finish in 6th but was very disappointed.

On day two, I came 1st in all of my motos. I also won my semi. In the final I had gate three. I had a great gate and was leading to the first jump however I did not come across enough so was in second. I was right behind but had to settle for second.

Lauren Stack

24.04.12

Belgium National #2 Keerbergen

 

Lauren Stevens riding junior and elite men got a second place in the final after winning his motos and semi.
Karo Vertessen and Wout Geukens got the first place in the final as well as in the ranking.
Jona Laenen did very well with a third place in the final.  In his semi he slipped at the gate but didn’t hesitate. He fought his way back from eight to third place.
Mathijs Verhoeven had bad luck in the quarter.  He had a great start and immediately got a nice lead.  But he slipped in the second turn and slammed into the bricks.  Outside a black eye, he is fortunately not hurt.
Ynske van Tichelt rode a good race with a fourth place in the final junior and elite women.
Jarne Noyens took a fith place in the final.
Sten Sauvillers his quarter final was good but stranded in the semi.  He finished third in the B-final.

great trainingweekend with the 1s2w group

 

  

the last weekend we´ve had a great and learnfull weekend with 3 differend tracks and many training hours.
First we went to luiksgestel where they built a big and amazing track which looks like a SX track without 8mtrs starthill.
We did great technical sessions with the boys and girls.
Second track in row was Ravels where the training was buizzy becausse it was a open session for all riders.
There were a lot of dutch people who trained there.
Again a good session but the best was in track number 3 Veldhoven.
The group makes progression and everybody make theire own level higher and higher on there way to the 2012 outdoor season.
2 weeks left for the 1st race in Belgium and 10 weeks till the worlds in Birmingham and I´m  happy to see the progression in the group.
All Riders follow theire way and go 4 it - belief in all they like to do and all they want to reach!
In the next weeks we will travel with some riders to Erlangen (Germany) and Lumbres (France) for the final session before the season start 2012.
Look at the foto session which is made by Prei at the track of Veldhoven, thankx for this Patrick and thankx to Veldhoven BMX Club...

six 1step2win riders at caen indoor

 

good organised Indoor Race again held at the Caen Expo Center last weekend.

The youngest of the 1s2w riders, Karo Vertessen had a crash on saturday in the half final but she showed us all her level on sunday with a 3rd place in the final.

Jona Laenen and Mathijs Verhoeven had on both days to pass the 1/16 final. On saturday they rode through the 1/8 but did´nt reach the first 4 places - so they were out of competition. Sunday the end for them came one round earlier in the 1/16.

On both days it was not Donny´s race - he was out in the motos.

Lauren Stevens did a very good job on saturday. He made a very fast first lap at the back wheel from Moana Moo-Callie. In the 1/8 final he had a crash after a good gate in the open elite/juniors class.

On sunday he wasn´t fit and had a totaly "off" day - hopefully next time better.

Nadja did an amazing job in elite/junior open class, takes very good snaps from the gate, but had a bad luck in the final on position nr 3 at the back wheel from magalie pottiere and eva ailloud she crashed at the 2nd turn. On sunday she takes the holeshot in semi in front of again the world nr 3 magalie pottiere elite women but made a mistake in the final at the 2nd straight so she got finaly the 5th place.

CAEN Indoor 2012

 

I had a great weekend at the indoor race in Caen/ F last weekend.
It was not easy because I had to race together with the French elite girls.
On Saturday i took the backwheel of Eva Ailloud in the quater and qualified for semi. There i got 2nd again. With a good start in the Final i was right behind Ailloud and Pottier. After the first turn I was 4th but got back on 3rd place after 2nd straight. After a crash in the 2nd turn i got 8.
Sunday was also a good race. With 2,2,2 I qualified easily for the semi. There I took the holeshot in front of Magalie Pottier and Elke van Hoof. After a little mistake at the end of the 2nd straight Pottier passed me. So again a 2nd place brought me to the final. The Final  was not a very "clean" race so after a lot of ellbow contacts in the turns I finally got 5th.

Nadja

Supercross Venue change for the Norwegian round

 

The second round of the 2012 UCI BMX Supercross, to be held in Norway next April 13th and 14th, has been moved to a new indoor venue in Randaberg.

The Randaberg Arena is just seven kilometres away from the originally planned outdoor venue in the centre of Sandnes. This slight change means the event will not be affected in the event of bad weather.

Although this will be the first time that a round of the UCI BMX Supercross is held in the country, Norway hosted the 2010 European Championships and the 1991 BMX World Championships in Sandnes. The Norwegian Cycling Federation took part in the seminar held at the World Cycling Centre last week for all organisers of the 2012 Supercross series.

The 2012 UCI BMX Supercross, managed by Global Supercross Events Inc, comprises four rounds. After Randaberg the series will stop over in Papendal (NED) on May 12th and 13th, then Abbotsford (CAN) on September 14th and 15th.

Simone in US for a ABA Race

 

Last week I went on a trip with the danish national team to Oldsmar, Florida. We already had problems at our first flight to Amsterdam. It was delayed because of the snowy weather. So therefore we also missed our flight to Detroit, but with a bit of luck, we were in Orlando sunday noon. But our bikes and lugage didn't arive with us. Monday it came to our hotel in Oldsmar, but it was raining so hard we couldn't go training. But after this we had some good trainings in Oldsmar! There was pro training from tuesday and the rest of the week because of the race in the weekend, so we were training with a lot of good riders, which was very cool! Just before i went to the US I had a chrash, so I had a lot of problems with my thumb and hip, but it got better and better during the week. 
The track in Oldsmar was so awesome! More european style than US, with pretty big jumps for me, and also with a pretty steep rythm section on the last straight. I never rode a track which was so smooth, you could even see marks from the tires when you landed. I felt good on the track besides my small injury, but I found the gate very hard. It was really slow, and the hill was flat in the top, but steep after 1-2 meters, so it was pretty difficult to figure out.
The race in the weekend, Gator Nationals, was a big one. There were a lot of riders, but not very many in Junior Women. Too bad! We were only 6 saturday and 5 sunday. But we still rode 3 motos, and after that the final main. Saturday i got 1,1,3 in the motos, and ended up with a 2nd place in the main. Sunday it went even better. I won all my motos and also the main. So a good weekend for me, and really nice to try to race in the US, never tried that before, and it is very different from the races in Europe. Even though we weren't many riders, the level of each rider was high.

good news from bad injuries...

 

I´ve had contact with Aneta Hladikova and Pim de Jong last week ..
Aneta told me she is really on her way back.
After a bad injury the sun is again in her life.
She is in therapy now to her rehabilitation after broken back.
Next week she start the therapy programme also for upperbody.
Hopefully she will recover soon - so ANNIE ....all the best.... with this in next weeks.
Pim de Jong has after his broken arm in Kortrijk also good news for me and himself.
They operated the arm and there is no plaster anymore, he feels good and almost no pain. 
After his test he can start to do some bikework on the roller and hopefully soon back on the BMX to start sprint work.
Track sessions are too early so he has to wait but if you have a look outsite its no probleme for him i think, haha...

!!!! weekend to forget as soon as possible !!!


we were back in klatovy for round 3 and 4 in the European champ 2012

and how !!!!!!
After the Friday training it looked so good for our riders.
Good gates, smooth on the track and strong first lines.
Then when we wake up at Saturday it was raining time and the track was soft and very bad.
In the challenge we had karo and ynske.

They had trouble because of the mud and it was to heavy but these young girls fought very hard and showed there respect
karo vertessen got 2nd in girls 13/14, the same on Sunday.
ynske got 6th in final both days in girls 15 and over.
Then the Saturday round 3 in elite/ junior was cancelled.

The organisation decided to race both rounds on Sunday because of the bad weather conditions on Saturday.
Sunday we started on an very bad track and we rode only 2 motos in both rounds.
I don’t want to think back to this horrible day , organisation and track.
we had pim de jong in round 4 with a 5th place in junior men final and simone christensen did it very well with a 2nd place in round 3 and an 3rd in round 4 in jw..
hopefully we will  have a good track and also a good weekend in Geneva.

ethan vernon brought his pure bike till an 2nd place in the main afther an very good and strong compitition during the day.
Good job afther weeks of injury with his broken arm.

Looking a lot comfier and stronger on the bike, Ethan looked good in practice at Cheddar for the Brits.

It was clear he was feeling confident as he dominated the motos, quarters and semi taking wins in all.

He was again feeling confident to take the win in the final but being a little too eger, went a bit too early and hit the gate.

Edging out in front down the first straight was not quite enough for him to move across and take the advantageous line into first corner.

A closely fought battle and a couple of attempts to make a move were not quite enough to take the win but a well deserved 2nd. was a good

TC 4 Zoetermeer


Last weekend september 17 and 18 we had the national Topcompetition in Zoetermeer.
Its close to Rotterdam and The Hage and also to the seaside.
It was very windy with a lot of rain and so the races were havy with a lot of mud.
Everything was okay till the semis .
Imro Kokelaar goes out and Pim de Jong chrashed so only Donny v Osch makes the main for 1step2win.
Donny is on his trip back to the biggest level he had and makes it after a good gate in the mud to a 4th possition in the  junior men final.
The young kids of my club Valkenswaard did it very well.
Many finals again so also for world nr 6 in boys 7 and under Casper Pipers, he made it till 2nd Place after loosing his pedales at the first straight and starts from the last possision. Amazing job how strong this little boy comes back.

Saturday´s race was the most important race of year for challenge categories, because the winners took the title of CZ champion! It was also 3rd round of CZ national championship for Junior and Elite men. We had little bit over 200 riders and beatiful weather for racing! For once girls didn´t compete with boys 15/16, but in lonely category EW 15+. I was able to win all my motos with comfortable lead and took another national champion title for 12th time in my career. JM/EM race was won by rider from Slovakia - Milan Krebs, Stepan Tumpach got 2nd and Petr Mühlhans 3rd. Another national championhip was held on sunday - this time for Clubs and teams. As we don´t have many riders in my club, we didn´t participate in this race that was won by team from Mikovice - Tufir team.
