Ciao!
It has been busy weeks, or even month, since the beginning of october when I was in Cologne for the IFMXF FIM Worldcup. Just when I got back from there, me and Rino packed up the van and headed to Budapest in Hungary for the LG Mobile FMX Show.
Hungary is always the same, good professional show with many good riders and filled up with more naked girls than would ever been alowed anywhere else. Me, Andy Bell, Brian Foster, Riegan Sieg, Alex the german, Jeff Fehr, Petr Pilat, Jake Windham and Massimo Biancisini did our best all weekend, on and of the bike! I earned five US$ from beeing objectified on stage. By the way, had to pay extra to get Rino out of the hotel, hoteldestruction nr 3 under the belt.
On our way back home we had a 3 day show in Modena, Italy, with the FIAT Freestyle Team and Da Boot Crew taking care of everything things can´t go wrong. FIAT hoked us up with a guided tour inside to Ferrari factory, that is told to be very exlusive. Even if you get yourself one of those red ones you can´t get in to the factory! FIAT Freestyle Team has made something really uniqe thing, they put down alot of money to their sponsored riders, one from each sport on the more extreme kind. And they just comes along the train, letting young be young and wild! The boss just sat in the middle of their big stand at the expo we where at, just laughing when all we riders just went berzerk and trashed pretty much everything. And when the security people came, she looked like she just had made an masterpiece.
In mid November I was at my second IFMXF FIM Worldcup, it ended pretty fast after my spark plug died on my fifth jump in qualification. I won the whip contest though!
On the 24th and 15th of November I was in Katowice, Poland for another round of the IFMXF FIM WC. After spending 16 hours in terminals, planes and another 3,5 hour in a taxi, I finally found Katowice. The stadium was really small and that made the course superhard to ride. All the riders struggled all weekend acctually, the only one I could see rode like I´m used to see him was Fabian Bauersachs. I ended up on the podium the both nights wich I should be really happy about! And I am!
I went straight from Katowice to Prague, we had a wonderful week there with the normal Ogio Easterneurope Crew with Bell, Fehr, Miller, Sieg, Windham, Maddison.
Marek, wich in my eyes is absolutely one of the best organizers there is, keept us busy with Go-Kart, Zoo, Sightseeing, Castles, Parties, Presskonferance and just good times!
The show was an amazing one, gladiators, fire, Justin Hoyer flipping his sled, Gueter flipping quad, and everything was really made with an thought behind.
I added some pictures from everywhere, enjoy!
Thanks to Marek, the Bellboys, Tamas, Martin & Libor & Alej, Kate, Ryan and the ween nerds, the IFMXF Crew and everyone else!
