BMX racing, how hard could it be?.. Surely it's not that different to mountain biking. However, it's been a while since Blake has raced on wheels this small, so before the big event he heads to the pump track to get some practice in. Blake Samson gets some much-needed coaching from former British BMX champion John Twitchen. But you'll have to wait until next week to see if any of his training pays off! ⏱ Timestamps ⏱ 00:00 - Welcome back you beautiful people! 00:23 - How does BMX racing work? 01:21 - Blakes BMX 02:37 - First attempt on a BMX pump track 03:57 - Blake gets some much-needed BMX coaching 04:51 - How to get a perfect start 07:38 - Learning the track 10:41 - Practice makes perfect! 12:21 - “Was this good?” Useful Links: 🛍 GMBN Merch Store 👉 https://gmbn.eu/gmbnshop Racing Highlights & More On GMBN Racing 👉 https://gmbn.eu/GMBNracing Watch Shorts on GMBN 👉 https://gmbn.eu/GMBNshorts Submit your Photo and Video to us 👉 https://upload.gmbn.com/ Sign-up to our newsletter 👉 https://gmbn.eu/newsletter When was the last time you went to a pump track?
