Re: 2012 bmx Olympics track!
Now that is a starting hill!After that gate drops its just a couple cranks and you can probably make it around the whole track without pedaling again.I agree about the asphalt.It is going to be a super fast track but the wrecks will be bad!I predict a lot of blood loss on that sucker.

Well the last Olympics saw the USA's most promising rider crash, and nearly break his foot right off of his body. Bubba Harris, That was a terrible injury! I like the asphalt there is no way to attain those speeds on Dirt.

You guys think the old school guys in their prime could've tackled that track, and beat their competitors?...

Totally lacks pedaling areas, i wonder what the average gear ratio is.

All the tracks these days are all about rythm sections and technical sections. I think you need a balance of rythm and power pedalling.

Some of the old downhill bmx stuff from the late 90s and early 00s is pretty knarly. They had a huge starting hill and the jumps were massive like super wide trails.

No way. It would take a lot I practice for them to get to that skill.
