I refuse to mention BMX in the cycling thread ...

Loved watching this event in Beijing, the races are total chaos!

Aussie Caroline Buchanan was quickest in the seeding run, Crain from the USA went over the handlebars and head first into a jump, would have hurt!

I don't know how she didn't kill herself with that crash.

Buchanan was impressive.

why don't they race on dirt? Isn't that the point of BMX?

Should be compulsary to have a paddle pop stick or bit of plastic taped onto them sticking into the spokes to they sound like motorbikes......
