Wow shes smooth. but hey guys Im looking to start racing bmx and I was wondering whats a good bike? I race motocross already and do a little bmx here and there, so Im not totally helpless on a bike :p.

[Kixher]

Jeicher195 - What you're looking for is a Diamondback. Most of their bikes are designed for someone looking to get into the sport. They have middle to higher end bikes. I personally don't ride one anymore (simply preference) but I used to use a Diamondback Nitrus 06. This is not your cheap walmart bike, as it ran me around 200$. Good beginner bike.

[edwardalexklose]

She doesn't need to be. You idiot

She the best at what she does.

I agree with you Jewlzorjay up to a point that going for gold is a great attitude, but throwing away silver.. not great move. Its easy to say from sitting at home but if he had have made it past ACC on the last corner she would have cheated to win. You do that in motorsport you would be punished. I sincerly hope not, but she may pick up an injury before2012 and not be able to compete silver IS a great result and risking all for gold is a commendable effort but not worth winning nothing over.

i'm french and 'm happy that Anne Caroline Chausson won ! but i must reconize that Shazane is very good at BMX but i don't understand why she's always falling , if she don't she (maybe) could be first or second at beijing ! anyway she's very hot(but anne caroline too !)

[KLU0KLUX0KILLA]

shes so fineeeee

[sroyle01]

im from crewe and i have met her. You only ever see her on her bmx riding about! she is going to win in 2010 easy,

[michaelintraining]

2012 you fool

[randomtownie]

lmao

[baeckler]

She's so hot

But Anne-Caro is gold !

[jewlzorjay]

I loved her attitude,

Somany people are happy to settle for silver but not Shanaze Reade she put her body on the line and said to herself its first or nothing.

I think a lot of the GB athletes could learn from her.

[sandmbmx]

well you lost last night, u aint a robot.

[riccyq]

damn! girl gave her all she did so well to get up from so many falls. i just dont think it was her day. u did GB proud!

[Fenlandpike]

The best of British luck for Wednesday ~ another gold no doubt.

[lorcansk8]

i want to start bmx i live in worthing but i cant find a single bmx racing place neaar can anyone plzzzz tell were i can find a club thanks

[duckfuey1]

try looking into the ABA (American Bicycle Association) BMX website

[dirtjumper23]

the bbc cameramen obviously arent used to shooting action video, the clips are so badly filmed!! good luck anyway

[CharliesTransmission]

Its the BBC what do you expect! Action is just a word in the dictionary to them :P

[mantadaveo]

Bmx is one of the best sports going racing and freestyle the british people dont understand it yet but if she wins gold they will its a shame jamie staff is not racing bmx to ?I just hope bmx park comes in 2012 good luck girl bring andy ruffell back for 2012

[chromelad]

mate stop talking bullshit england knows what bmx is im bmxer theres thousands doing racing street park flatland everything get ur facts right

[javigutz]

man! you re soooo confused

[stagga76]

I kind of see your point. Everyone knows what BMX is but I doubt many people know what the Olympic event is. I had to check this video to find out yet I know several semi-pro freestyle BMXers!

[inlikeflynny]

This lady is rapid. I thought A.C.Chausson and Kinter were quick but this girl is on it. I just hope the GB track team doesn't poach another BMX rider and that she has a 'proper' career to inspire more generations of riders.

[iouakick]

daamn, shes rocket powered!

[joviandy]

good luck Reade, greetings from Indonesia

[j2872j]
