Hope he rides it, he pretty much dominated at the Lommel beach race over the weekend.

I just looked at a few photos of this race. Looks like a blast but terrifying at the same time.

Are they still having everyone on the course all at once? That is the scary thing having pros like him and novices out there at the same time.

I don't know, but if I were a "sandman" I would be challenging myself here...

The worlds biggest sand track.

I'd like to see that, I did it 2010 and it was deffinatly an experience. I think the massive piss up in Weston on saturday night is one of the best things about it.

Pastrana did it once and broke his wrist, if my remember right he was landed on... think this was right before one of his last serious pushes for SX or Nats. Must have been mid 00s I think.

A few did try it.
Gaston Rahier won a couple of times.
Andre Malherbe raced too, but unfortunately a crash paralyzed him.

Cool event, wish they would have an event like that here. That at times reminded me of rush hour on the 405 fwy.

I think Simpson, Ando and Church are doing it as well, not sure about anyone else.
