go Shanaze Reade..
BMX world champion 2006, 2007, 2008 and 2010
World BMX time trial champion

Injuries - broken shoulder, broken knees, broken foot, broken hands, broken ribs, broken coccyx (lower spine)

Just watched the seeding, two massive crashes but hopefully no bad injurys, commentators kept things light but evidently know their stuff. Referred to the French competitor as "smooth as garlic butter" or somthing similar.

Go Shanaze!

Buchanan and Willoughby ftw

Go Sammy!

are they orf ?

those sloe moe shots of the jumps are ace

They get full value out of those helmets! Outch!

Some big crashes...

BMX synchronized crashdance WOW

Dutchies not doing badly at all btw :)

mid air crash
guy in yellow was luuuucky

heh mass pile up apart for NZL guy...he must of been smiling away to himself

They get full value out of those helmets! Outch!

you reckon it's same rule for those BMX lids? Do they bin them after one crash? If so, it's a pricey do for the none sponsored!

that BMX pitch / court looks stunning

Is this all ticketed? I'm not working until 4pm tomorrow and would love, love, love to catch some of this.

Sadly it is.

The camera work is wonderful, especially the slo mos between races.

Stunning sport to watch with those swooping slo-mos.

so gutted i never got tickets for this, great sport, my favourite BMX jersey so far columbia! wanted to go to Birmingham for the worlds in may but didn't make it.

Where the fuck is the BBC coverage today? There live BMX coverage so far is boxing and sailing?

you can get it on line and on te red button if you got digital set top box if its not on main bbc, but should be on main tv starts at 3pm

Agree with all the above - BMX looks the tits in slow mo and I reckon on the bmx circuit tour forum I don't think there's a do-you-or-don't-you-wear-a-helmet thread

Starting now.

wish they would keep on the wide shots so you can see the race.
EMPTY seats i could have had one of them..... :(

pp she wont let you down.....you got each way right

I watched yesterdays BMX, awesome racing, I will put some pics up shortly

Between races they had some lads doing some stunts, which were just as awesome as the racing.

Go Shanaze..that was awesome.
