BMX seeding live now

Whoops, another crash!

My Bob Haro Lightening bolt number plate would have looked cool on the start line..

Is it really that hard to tell the difference between the Colombian and German kit. Ed Leigh , muppet.

Broken collar bones, liver injuries, cracked ribs. It’s great for kids 😆

they all seem to be front wheel washouts on the turns.

What tyres for Olympic bmx track?

just before they start are they balancing the bikes with the wheel wedged against the gate, like a kindo f track stand??

Dancing horses??? WTF???

yup thats it bigdawg..

You a Southend local? go take Chipps out and get him drunk sat night..

Is it finished?

All I get is dancing horses?

Bikes are on the gate with their weight on it. They aren’t trackstanding freely.

red button has bmx

liam phillips in 2nd so far

I am but to my shame I wont be in Southend saturday night?! As soon as we’re finished with the racing Ill be heading over my parents…

Very bad planning on my part… In hindsight I could have probably put up a couple of guys and gone for a ride sunday morning…

Hmm… excuses for not seeing parents & inlaws..!

Not as bad as mine bigdawg, I even had tickets but as the application for tickets was so far in advance I booked a holiday that collided!

Tell me what’s happening, tell me what’s happening

Because people at work want to watch the dancing horses and we don’t have Iplayer

😯

Cant you forget your passport..!?

jhw… this is dung coverage but better than nothing..

I run through a german server here so cant get BBC either.

Bigdawg you wouldnt beleive the turmoil I am in..

there is a dirt jump competition on and the beeb feed aint watching it. i can hear it, but they are showing me pictures of empty track instead.

LAME.

as much as i love it, i can see bmx getting pulled from the olympics if this keeps up.

crash rate is too high on the SX tracks i reckon. dont think the organising committees are gonna like it…

Don’t they crash a lot in skiing also?

thats crap tracknicko!!!!!!

Because people at work want to watch the dancing horses and we don’t have Iplayer

snap – american server blocking web feeds too

did that NZ bloke try and throw his bike at the other riders?

Dunno, it’s pretty entertaining with so many crashes.

Jhw its a crashfest. Pickard and Caleron just wiped.

Philips in 3rd going in to moto3.

Synchronised crashing as an Olympic sport !

Amazing skills there ….

Brakes try the link I sent.

Fields looks good.

LP makes the semis! Wasn’t expecting that. Fields is riding better in that heat though

Wehey, everyone made it this time!
IF this is a big success, maybe we’ll see 4x muted for the Olympics…

maybe we’ll see 4x muted for the Olympics

probably not now UCI have dropped backing for it 🙁

Just read the release on that..what a bummer.
” due to the high costs of constructing tracks and their impact on the environment” … apparently.

Flipping brillant – this is the sport we need.

Simple, no rules to get confused by, the winner is obvious, loads of frantic action, masses of skill needed as well as speed, crashes as well which can wipe out the favorites, plus its all over in a jiffy.

Oh, and you dont need a panel of judges to decide whos won.

Ed Leigh is a bit annoying isn’t he?

not really

Colombian note to self: Don’t wear white kit again when racing BMX

willoughby triple manual at 40mph into final turn. HERO.

Big crash here…

Also is Rob Warner doing the live (ie if you are there, not Ed Leigh) commentary? Sounds like him…

no, he’s doing FMX stuff according to his tweets
