Nissan Qashqai Challenge redux

The SUV-sponsored bike trials series kicks off again on Friday. It starts in Milan, moves to Madrid and ends in London. Last year it started in my home town, Newcastle.

It’s a shame it’s moved. Last year’s event was one of my top five YouTube vids, attracting 45,000 views (the most viewed vid has had 92,000 views).

Here is the two-day version of the vid, which is better than the one-day version but has attracted 10,000 less viewers.



Riders present at last year’s Nissan Qashqai Challenge include Andreu Lacondguy, Paul Basagoitia, Ben Boyko, Greg Watts and Lance McDermott. They join 35 other jump-meisters at this year’s event.
