GMP Zion Dirt Jam results

GMP Zion Dirt Jam took place on Aco's local dirt jumps last weekend and it was nothing but good times. Only bad thing was the rain that fell on Friday and made everything wet , so we had to move the Jam from Saturday to Sunday which means that riding took place after a Satruday night party which is never really a good idea.

Rain or no rain it was a great weekend. Everybody gathered on Vrba beach on Saturday, raised their tents and started the BBQ . Aco did a great job making this a party to remember so we even had a private concert on the beach by Mondo Bizzaro band.

On Sunday morning we took some time fixing the jumps and the jam was on. Even thought it was still wet from the rain everybody rode incredible.

Here are the results :

BMX
1. place - Igor Vukadinovic - Poki
2. place - Jurica Barac
3. place - Aleksandar Manojlovic

MTB
1. place - Goran Jurica
2. place - Kristijan Mrak
3. place - Primoz Tanko

Best trick was won by Jurica Barac who received an Golden Catfish prize for this. If you know Aco you know the story behind this catfish.

School of sponsorship

Last weekend there was a Pannonian Bike Expo in Osijek, Croatia, and as part of this event Jura organized a School of sponsorship. This was a 2 hour lecture by Jura and Mislav Mironović where they talked to young riders about how to approach to sponsors , get a sponsorship and all the little details that are important when you get sponsored. It was really cool and we should have more projects like this.
