i dont like te gee athrerton cause i rode at this bmx track where he was and he was annoying. i think sam hill would have won if he didnt fall, obviously and i think he made a stupid mistake. gee did a pretty good run and wouldve gotten 2nd if sam didnt crash. i think just because sam made a stupid mistake dosent and gee wasent next in line by a few seconds back. i dont think that make gee the best.

yh, but basicaly, gee can keep control at that speed on that corner an sam couldn't. its a race run, if you crash then you crash, you can't say what would have happened because everything would have been diiferent, yh sam was by far the fastest at the top and in the middle but couldnt hold on to it at the proplem, how can he be the winner of the day if he can't even stay on his bike

I think it's pretty cool, when was the last time a brit won it?
Real shame about PeatyFrown , I thought he was gonna do it when Sam crashed and then, well props to Gee really.
Sam will destroy everyone next year in Canberra though.

fair play to sam for being 10 secs up at the split but he didnt have a clean run so u cant say he deserved it.

gee was pinned and had a clean run and took the win

fair play to rachel winning by 11 secs

poor graves but hes focusing on the olympics so he had his mind on bmx all season.pretty cool that he was beating every1 in 4x when he's only raced 4x twice this year..well done arbolasa he was fast enough to deserve it.

it was gee's day and all the controversey from the blow out(sam) took away from the props gee deserved.

people crash when others have clean runs its racing .

gee deserved it

i think if sam could keep a streek he'd give nico a run for his money

sam had nico a long time ago.

isnt holland the flattest country.

ie amazing 4x racers

yes holland is the flattest country in the world but also it's the lowest country in the world with some places that goes as deep as 10m under sea levelWink .Holland has also 1 off the top BMX racers in the UCI bmx Supercross series.
