Congratulations to all the winners on Day 2 of the Red Bull Bike n’Mic in Luxembourg yesterday. This is a new type of event where the crowd judged the event with an app, with the riders battling round to round along with hip hop artists thrown in the mix. Viki Gomez & Chris Bohm came out as joint winners followed by a joint second tie Lee Musselwhite & Raphael Chiquet, good vibes in Luxembourg.
Congratulations to Kio Hayakawa who just won Day 1 of the Red Bull Bike n’Mic contest in Luxembourg followed by Terry Adams and Chris Bohm on the podium. Good vibes from Luxembourg.
Episode 23 of the Hang 5 podcast just dropped featuring Lee Musselwhite from here in the UK. Really enjoyed this episode, where Lee discusses his riding roots in Torquay, the impact of attending the King of Concrete event and later on the Portimao Worlds in 1998, his sponsorship history, running Inertia, his riding philosophy, coaching under Martti Kuoppa and while lot more. There’s a lot covered and it’s certainly worth a listen!

Together with www.ggmimage.com we wanted to bring together the amazing energy of Bike N Mic ( BMX & Hip Hop ). I traveled the world during the past 22 years and when I do shows I include the competition tricks because this defines me as an athlete. It happened very often that there was a lot of magic in these moments!
Therefore we thought on bringing together the amazing line up of riders who can deliver both: an amazing show skills connecting with the crowd and epic competition tricks to let everyone with a WOW.
The public will vote with an app that measures the decibels. So riders need to connect with the crowd and still deliver amazing tricks! It’s a big challenge full of good vibes! All riders win as they will have their own time on their demand.
But don’t forget they are warriors and they will fight for the Podium! We will have one contest on Saturday and one on Sunday.
It’s a new concept and we can’t wait to see the results!
Thanks to all the sponsors and everyone involved!
