	Marc Willers had a BAD Time Trial Superfinal lap, almost 'ate it' in the 2nd straight during his 2nd moto, but had a RIPPIN' good gate in the Final. BAM / Top Spot for the superfast Speed Factory Pro who has been having his best year EVER in BMX racing!	What happens when you DON'T make the Box Jump. The Box Jump was was a feature on the new track that got more pro complaints then any other bit on the feature laden track. This didn't happen much, though, most guys made it thru, slowly with no problem.	Raymon van der Biezen's day ended quickly while leading his 2nd moto. He went down HARD in the 3rd straight rhythm section after looking SMOKIN' fast all weekend with a BIG #2 in the TT Superfinal. Tough day at the office for Raymon VDB.	Ellen Bollansee, pictured here with 'Supercoach', Jorg de Louw, is the new UCI BMX Coordinator. Good job by the UCI, cuz Ellen's one of the best! She's the Belgian National Coach and a former GT Factory Elite Women's Pro Rider. She's BMX Mania Approved!


		Martijn Scherpen, contemplating the massive Papendal Track.	Andres Jiminez was scoarching the track all day but just barely missed the Main with a 5th in the Semi.	Sam Willoughby was lookin' FAST all day until the 'Papendal Crash Bug" bit him, Turn 1, Main Event, in 2nd place.	Mike Day fan sighting. You could tell the fans were psyched to see Mike back on the SX track. What's not to love? The guy's AWESOME!

Team USA's, Corben Sharrah was going FAST all day til a crash in the semifinal took him out. OOPS! No U.S. riders in the main.

Ramona Labounkova has been 'sniffin' around Elite Women's finals for years, but Papendal was a good gig for her, placing her on the top of the Time Trial Superfinal podium AND a HUGE 2nd place finish in the Big Show!

GT Factory Pro, Mike Day has been on a nice easy going 'comeback' in '11 from major back surgery which nearly ended his BMX racing career after his big Silver Medal performance in the 2008 Olympic Games. In Papendal, #365 was a half second off of making the final, after a good STRONG "Day" of racing through his 1/8ths, 1/4's and in to a tough semi-final on a tough track.
