Red Bull District Ride has returned to Nuremberg for the first time since 2011. Once again the top FMB riders will be taking over the German city with their huge tricks and impressive riding skills. The urban slopestyle course was built by 2005 Red Bull District Ride Champion Aaron Chase. An expected 55,000 spectators will trek into the heart of this historic town to witness the battle for FMB Diamond Series points, as the top contenders ride it out in round 4.

Red Bull District Ride is certainly an event you do not want to miss. With five challenging districts – athletes will have to spice up their runs with a mixture of dirt jump, street riding and big air skills. District number 2, the GoPro Upside Down District, features a unique open loop, which can be ridden in a number of ways. For the money shots, crowds will be gathering in the final Big Air District to see what special tricks the athletes have in store on the huge 15-meter jump. Tune in live for all the action on www.redbull.com/bike and www.fmbworldtour.com

 You don't want to know. I definitely don't want to tell you. And I don't think anybody would want to read the answer. But here it goes. The defending FMB champ is a voluntary no show.

 This is what he said on his facebook after joyride
"Sorry to those who wanted to see me ride in crankworx, I dunno why but this year I've been getting crazy mental blocks at the events, it could be a mixture of pressure from last year and stress etc, who know's, anyway I'll be back at some point just need to sort out my mindset! Don't wanna be hitting 50footers while I'm not feeling 100% really, do I!!!?"

 Meanwhile this is what Andreu think about:

"Not gonna be riding District ride this year. Not into bmx on a hardtail. Big in the mountains should be more funn than small in the city. Rampage next!"

 It's amazing to see how you're not even capable to spell the name of our cities right! It's " Nürnberg" or if you prefer "Nuernberg". You're welcome.
