Festival du Bowl des Trixhes / Flémalle, Belgium

On May 3rd, 2014 the Bowl des Trixhes was in party mode.  People from everywhere came together and spent all day riding a firing session under constant snaking, Zèbre’s erotico-ironic lyrics and Petula Clarck’s guitar grinding the coping.

It was an unusual day in the history of the clover shaped bowl, which is situated on a remote coal tip closed in by woods. For its fifth anniversary the bowl will get a new face. This summer, in August, the local riders are going to extend the bowl with 150 square meters of fresh concrete.

The three ends of the bowl already offer gnarly and fluid rides. And it’s going to get even better…
Stay tuned!
