A Win For Foam Pit Haters!

By Dave | December 18, 2009 | 6

Foam-Pit-Fire

This is not a snow foam pit but I saw it and thought it would please a few shoutbox users to see it alight … Apparently this was one of the best built foam pits located in the Red Bull Compound in Wyvern, California, and it was used for FMX (I have no idea what that is?). Anyway, somehow it caught fire and it took hours to bring it under control by which time the pit was a smoldering pile of steel and rubber. So, all you anti-pit-campaigners need is for a few pit-users to take up smoking while riding and you have a chance to eliminate a few of the things! Check out more over here.
