Savage Skills Fly
On Tuesday 13th June, we were treated to Ben Savage and James Jones, multiple world BMX champions showing us their stunts as part of Savage Skills.
There was plenty to get exited by including a bike bunny hopping over 121cm, huge air on the large ramp and even climbing up a ladder on a bike.
The best bit was when Mr Sibley, Mrs Emmerson and Mrs Perrett had to lie down and Ben jumped over them.
