Rider Profile: James Christie


James is National #2 in the highly competitive 30-39 Cruiser class and he is talking about racing 20" next year.

How long have you been racing?
Been back racing for 4 years.

What has one thing, training wise, that you think is of most benefit to you?
Having a set routine

What is your favorite track and why?
It would have to be Burnham and Harworth as I won both of my Nationals there.

Who are your favorite riders?
It has to be Warren Bancroft, he is a pure natural
Also Miles Kirby, he gives it 100% where ever, when ever! Don’t ever relax in a race when Miles is behind you!

Do you do any other sports, if so what do you think they help you with in BMX?
Up until recently I raced historic Grand Prix Cars, the starts are as important as BMX, as you really don’t want to be in the middle of the pack going into the first corner as there is no guarantee that you will come out the other side! Due to my work, I get to play a lot of golf, which makes you calm things down and relaxes you, but still maintaining the competive edge.

Favorite pre race food?
Jaffa Cakes and Pasta
