Summer or winter, there are endless activities to keep you entertained.

Following along as a fan is a lot different than competing, but it is fun for me to have both perspectives. With a week and a half to go, there is an embargo for individual athlete websites and stuff, but the quality of exposure from the last few months has been very high. Hours and hours of video profiles, athlete commercials, training vids, and captivating stories. Every single person going to the games has some kind of personal triumph as to... ]]> Sat, 21 Jul 2012 16:51:00 -0400 13287 2012-07-21 http://fiveten.com/images/stories/jreviews/13287_248046-4153549846411-424883261-n-1343061840.jpg http://fiveten.com/community/blog-detail/13170-bmx-olympic-trials-hall-of-fame-jill-kintner http://fiveten.com/community/blog-detail/13170-bmx-olympic-trials-hall-of-fame-jill-kintner CHULA VISTA, CA- USA Well a lot of running around this week, but some things are really important and can not be missed. Olympic trials and a Hall of Fame award don’t just happen every day. I was really happy to be there to support my friends with their dreams, witness history being made, and be recognized for our effort in Beijing. So thank you to USA BMX and the US Olympic training center:) Olympic trials day felt like an emotional rollarcoaster , wow. 8 of the best guys in the country trying to make... ]]> Mon, 18 Jun 2012 21:02:00 -0400 13170 2012-06-18 http://fiveten.com/images/stories/jreviews/_8102-3835288874794-1979507577-n-1340053358.jpg http://fiveten.com/images/stories/jreviews/_208959-4153549366399-359010974-n-1340053358.jpg http://fiveten.com/images/stories/jreviews/_550839-4153545366299-1227800029-n-1340053358.jpg http://fiveten.com/images/stories/jreviews/_lineup-trials2012-1340053358.jpg http://fiveten.com/images/stories/jreviews/_37185bb0b80e11e1a39b1231381b7ba1-7-1340053358.jpg http://fiveten.com/images/stories/jreviews/_252381-4153545006290-1831225826-n-1340053358.jpg http://fiveten.com/images/stories/jreviews/_chula-replica-1340053358.jpg http://fiveten.com/community/blog-detail/13003-inside-look-at-the-sea-otter-classic-jill-kintner http://fiveten.com/community/blog-detail/13003-inside-look-at-the-sea-otter-classic-jill-kintner The Sea Otter Classic is a unique event. It's traditionally been the season opener, but it's also the biggest media event where riders race, companies debut product, worldwide media covers everything, the fans enjoy lots of scoping in the pits and races, kids do their thing on jumpy castles and little bike loops, food courts, Dirt jump shows, demo bikes, etc. It's really the only event where road racing, xc, freestyle, and Downhill are in the same proximity. That doesn't matter though, as a racer doing 2 events we are so streamlined into our schedules that paths rarely cross.... ]]> Thu, 26 Apr 2012 16:59:00 -0400 13003 2012-04-26 http://fiveten.com/images/stories/jreviews/_405060-10151562593490608-627390607-24089853-498858093-n-1335459554.jpg http://fiveten.com/images/stories/jreviews/_seaotter-2012-2284-1335459554.jpg http://fiveten.com/images/stories/jreviews/_jon-6487-1335459554.jpg http://fiveten.com/images/stories/jreviews/_seaotter-2012-2220-1335459554.jpg http://fiveten.com/community/blog-detail/12711-south-africa-pack-job-jill-kintner http://fiveten.com/community/blog-detail/12711-south-africa-pack-job-jill-kintner Everyone has felt the pressure of the last minute pack job. It doesn't matter how much spare time you leave to pack, it always comes down to the wire getting spare parts organized and bikes taped up in their boxes. We are leaving tomorrow morning for the 15 hour trip from Sydney to Durban, RSA.
