tarmac berms
OrgasmDonor:
im not a fan of tarmac berms at all, ive never had a grip issue but they are alway ALWAYS bumpy as fook, it like riding over a giant golf ball
ron burgundy:
Just had the same conversation at the track. Why have Tarmac berms in China? I thought it was a one off, no expense spared event. I'm sure they could have kept dirt berms in good fettle for only a week.
I thought Tarmac was only used as an unhappy medium to help keep track maintanance to a minimum, surely this shouldn't be the case at the Olympics.
BMX = Bicycle Moto Cross

Only ever ridden Burnham with tarmac berms, didn't find them that bumpy, when watching Shaneze in China you could see how bumpy it was, like someone said above both dirt and tarmac are slippery, just seems to be the other way round, dirt slippery when dry and tarmac slippery when wet. Not sure if tarmac berms are required for National standard tracks, could be.
