Ismael recently hosted the “Bordeaux Jam 2023” and while turnout was relatively quiet, it looked like a fun time so I’d call that a success. They even got Australia’s Max Corcoran to join the fun! Ismael and others are doing good work to try to build up the scene out there, you love to see it. More and more events have been popping up on the low. We just had this one, Ritchie is throwing one over summer in Holland, there’s one going down in Sacramento in July, and of course we’ll be hosting one towards the end of the year. Exciting times!

More Suck My Comp Recaps Emerge!
84Kick – Fukuoka Jam
Satoshi made it out to Fukuoka to document a small fixed gear race and jam hosted by the Fish & Chips crew. Even though it’s small, events like this are what keeps a scene strong. There’s a bunch of riders with potential in here that i’ve never seen or heard of before, which is always exciting. Love this!
