			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Reports from the Pure European Factory Team at the UEC BMX Championships Kortrijk Belgium!</p>
<p><span id="more-868"></span></p>
<h3>Nadja</h3>
<p>On Thursday afternoon my mom, another german rider and me travelled to holland to my coachs place, so that we had only a 2 hours drive to kortrijk on friday. I was really exited for the race because it was the first race after a long time, and the first race on my new pure bicycle. Even if I had expected a bit more flow from the track, the friday afternoon training went well.</p>
<p>Saturday morning I just chilled with some other german guys in the hotel, made rocovery rides and watched some challenge races later.</p>
<p>As our motos started in the evening I was really focused on the race and had a good feeling. I finished my motos with 2,1,1 and got a better track feeling after every moto. As the Junior women class had no quarter or semi, I had a long break until the finals started. There, I was standing on line 2 just right next to my team mate simone christensen. We both had a very good gate and went to the first turn almost side by side. As I had the outside she passed me and a french girl came trough as well. I went to the 2nd turn on position nr.2 and finally brought it to the finish line.</p>
<p>The Sunday Race was almost the same except that I finished my motos with 1,1,1. As I got second the day before, I wanted to repeat or even make this good result better. In the final Simone and me had again the best gates and went to the first turn. It was really a neck-on-neck race until the finish line. I finished again 2nd and was satisfied with my result.</p>
<p>But I enjoyed not only the races. Also the time in our 1step2win team tent was great as i had a really good support by my coach martin velden and of course also by the pure bicycle company.</p>
<p>Now looking forward to the next race wich will be the indoor race in Caen / FR at the end of February.</p>
<h3>Simone</h3>
<p>We left Thursday at 16.00, and took a sleep over on the way to Kortrijk. Friday morning we left Germany, and were in Kortrijk at noon.</p>
<p>Here we started to check in at our hotel, found something to eat and then took of to the track! The track&#8217;s design looked cool, I liked it. But you could see that the track had some soft spots. I stayed positive, and was excited to race the track. It was my first euro round where i felt 100 % ready, because of my injury last year, so couldn&#8217;t wait!</p>
<p>After the training I felt good, the 3rd straight was pretty soft, and 2nd straight had some soft spots. But i really liked the 1st straight, because it was hard and fast!</p>
<p>Euro Round 7: I had a good training up to the race, and felt fast! I won all my motos, and felt strong! After I had to wait for the final, where I also took the first place! I was soo happy, only my 2nd win in my whole junior career.</p>
<p>Euro Round 8: Results was exactly the same as sunday, but in the final me and my teammate Nadja was fighting more for the 1st place, so it was a really cool final!</p>
<p>So this is the best result i have ever had, and I am so glad to have made a double win!</p>
<h3>Chris</h3>
<p>I didn&#8217;t like the track at all. soft and slow. but in the end it was better than riding outside in snow and rain. won Saturday so i guess i were looking forward to race Sunday, and see if i could take one more win. but got a second and i was okay with that. it were a okay race beside the track was that bad. hope they are going to fix that next year..</p>
