BMX Chat / Re: Today I bought, or it got delivered, or I fitted...
« Last post by Mikku on December 30, 2025, 11:08 PM »I was desperate to buy something BMX over the Christmas period but failed miserably! 
I did, however, switch over the wheels between my Crupi and Quamen race rigs. Only the wheels though, not the tyres, so it felt like fixing four punctures! Then there was all the pita v-brake adjusting that goes with it. Got there in the end though.

Any way, I remembered last time I fitted gears I kinda broke one of the jockey wheels. In my defence it was crappy flimsy plastic, but yeah. So I got a pair of these.

« Last post by Mikku on December 29, 2025, 12:58 PM »With Santa having put his feet up for another year and me sat here with a sore back after an overly enthusiastic, pre-Christmas session at the skate park, it’s time to wrap-up this 2025 race blog.
This year I made it to 10 races - six at Joetsu in Niigata, three at Oizumi in Osaka and one at Gorilla Park in Saitama. Not as many or as varied as last year but I also had quite a few pump track sessions and even more at the skate park, so did plenty of BMXing overall. I also raced three different bikes, starting off on the Redline, switching back to the GT then giving the Quamen its race debut before going back to the Redline! It’s taken me a while to get used to the longer lines of the latter but am now feeling more comfortable on it, so will continue with that next year.
Talking of 2026, there are potentially some big changes afoot, which may see me having a different local track. I was also hoping to make another trip to the States but USABMX recently announced some rule changes for foreign riders which has kind of knocked that idea on the head. I may be visiting the UK though, so as one door closes, another one opens. Whatever happens, I’ll continue to keep the RADBMX flag flying in my tenth season of racing!

Same! I have other hobbies and interests (snowboarding, cars, motorsports) but BMX in one form or another always rises to the top.
