Winter is the time to get ready for next season,
so I called my bud Thibo from France to go for a
pre-season preparation to his town. It's getting really
cold in Slovenia, to cold to rok 'n' roll. One short call
later everything was set and I was ready to go.

We headed on to west side of France by the Atlantic
ocean to join our next host and a stunt-riding friend,
Kevin, a little basque with a giant heart. A warm
welcome was waiting for us in Biarritz for another 7
days full of riding.

Recharged from the long trip, we leave the house
and head over to the stunt spot. It's something that
surprises me, because it's a small detail but still special
for me at home, when I arrive at the spot, there are no
riders waiting to ride together, but here the spot was
already full and riders continued to come and have
killer time. Already such an adrenalin rush upon the
arrival.

What I really miss at home while practicing, is hanging
out it with fellow stunt riders. It's so important to push
your limits while you watch other ridesr killing the same
trick that you are doing, on a next level. It just gives
you the extra push to be restless and jump back on the
bike, or even better, don't leave it at all. Riding on the
side, it's just cool to hang out and talk about stuntriding
stuff.Stuntriding pre-season session in France with my
toys KTM 690DUKE, KTM 200DUKE and boys Kevin
Dufourg, Bruno Ferreira and Thibaut Nogues. Crazy
freestyle riding trip, can't wait to do it again!

It's been a hell of a ride this season. Starting early in
January with the first show in Germany and ending 10
months later with a big tour in Asia and the Middle East,
with the last show in Palestine.

It's was
hectic year with lot's of cool projects
and checking stuff of my "to be done in my career"
bucketlist. One of those was building up a long term
dream, an own lifestyle workshop "Rok Bagoros MOTO
GARAZA"! In the workshop people can get a taste of
how we build up our high-end freestyle bikes, plus they
can take a piece of it home in the shape of a RokON
merch, or even bring their own bikes and get them
pimped. But more about this in the next blog entry ;)

When I returned back home, I got a small shock since I
realised all the traveling is over and it's time to change
the focus. Until now everything was all about traveling
and giving my best on the bike, from morning till night
on a daily basis.
