Cycling: The gravity scene has produced some crazy events. One of the most extraordinary races of the year is coming up next November, the Club Edition of the Pump Battle Series.
None other than 4X World Champion Joost Wichman is the initiator of the event. Admittedly, the idea of putting a pump track in a disco and having a race during the party sounds a bit crazy, but the inaugural event last year showed that it's a solid concept, which has been hugely popular with riders and spectators alike arrives

This year there are also no restrictions on drivers. Anyone can take part for a starting fee of 10 euros and try to qualify for the Top32 races in a time trial.
A total of 1000 euros in prize money await the drivers and a crazy after-show party with drivers such as Petrik Brückner, Sam Reynolds, Olli Wilkins, Joost Wichman, Tomas Slavik, Noel Niederberger and many others.
