08 olympic bmx track

[darkersomeday]

doesnt look right to me somehow,
where does the split big section after the first turn?

[bof]

after the first berm pro section on the right and then at the end of the straight you jump over the berm, into the berm behind the start hill   does that make sense.
There are some videos on you tube I think.

[darkersomeday]

duh, i never even clocked that

jump over the track eh!?

woy!

[bof]

Yeh and the gap is as big as it looks its massive , i will see if I can find the links for the video.

try this topic on talk there are pictures and video links.

[darkersomeday]

cheers for the link,

the pics on espn are just amazing

you dont get a proper perspective from the mock-up but that track is massive,
i'd be knackered trying to make it all the way round

did snazzy reade take the win?

[bof]

she certainly did , she really is fast as fook.

Thats a cool pic. Where did that pic come from? I just noticed the two Aussies in there. 

[Coastvl]

Nevermind. I found them.

I wouldnt say that to Shanaze Reade,

1st for GB , won by miles in (Qualifiers?) I think.

Track layout is good,but cant they  move the finish barrier a hundred metres or so from the last jump, then at least there can be a bit of peddling involved !
