When did the Olympics have BMX bike racing.

2. I guess skate boards are next.
We are good at that.

Maybe trying to get kids into watching.

4. I had the same reaction you did.
I had to look it up. This is the first time it has appeared in the Olympics.

5. It's like Snowboard Cross in the Winter Olympics
We'll probably see more forced modernized sports like that, to get the younger viewers interested, the X Games Generation, or whatever you want to call them.

I'd like to see a Lindsey Jacobellis-type screw up. :)
