Justin Kosman chased down some of the guys who have the privilege to ride the new X-Games 17 “real street” course that turned out damn good to see what else they could have done to make it more realistic. This is hilarious and why I love BMX. Serious business.
You can check out a few words about the course over on ESPN as well. The street contest will be going down in a few hours on ESPN so make sure you check it out. It’s going to be good.
