During the Balkan Bike Festival 2015 there was FMB WT Silver Event in Skopje. Macedonia X-treme event took place next to big mall – Skopje City Mall – in the capital of FYR Macedonia. Whole Festival held from 18th to 20th of September 2015.
Weather was nice, the temperature was 36 degrees Celsius, no wind. Finals started in the evening, when there was a little bit cooler than during the day. The amazing thing was that there were a lot of viewers on the scaffold and on the street next to the track. The track was not that easy and safe first you had to survive huge speedbox with stepdown ending, then it was quite simple 3 dirts in a row, each next bit smaller then previous one. During practice there were few small injuries, but luckly nothing serious. I hope that this event will take place next year. There will be longer track or bigger jumps. Or both. I wanna be there because of the atmosphere. It was amazing when spectators were clapping and screaming. Every backflip, every 360 of course also every crash 🙂
