BMX RACE 


California born

Bicycle motocross (BMX) started in the late 1960s in California, around the time that motocross became a popular sport in the USA. The motorised version of the sport was the inspiration for the human-powered competition.

BMX spreads worldwide

BMX racing offered exciting action at a low cost and the infant sport became an instant hit, especially in California. This led to the foundation of a sanctioning body for BMX in the USA in the early 1970s. Over the following decade, the sport gradually gained in international popularity.

Official international sport

In April 1981, the International BMX Federation was founded. BMX rapidly developed a unique sporting identity and it became evident that the sport had more in common with cycling than motorcycling. This was officially recognised in 1993 when BMX was fully integrated into the International Cycling Union (UCI). The sport made its Olympic debut at the 2008 Beijing Games.

Olympic history

It was in 2008 in Beijing that BMX made its debut on the Olympic programme. The men’s event was won by Latvia’s Maris Strombergs. In the women’s event, it was France’s Anne-Caroline Chausson who took the first Olympic title in this discipline.

BMX is one of the fastest and youngest cycling disciplines. Its principle is simple: eight riders compete on a track filled with jumps, tight bends and obstacles. In Beijing, the Laoshan velodrome track was 370m long for the men and 350m long for the women.

World War Z


This film isn´t recommended for children under 16 years.
This film is directed by Marc Foster and starring Brad Pitt based on the novel by Mx Brooks, which was written in 2006.
The film was released om August 2, this year, although it should be released in December 2012, it happened this because it had problems in filming and the end didn´t make sense.

It all begins when an employee of the United Nations, Gerry Lane (Brad Pritt) traveld around world in a race against the clock. He will try to avoid what could be the end of civilization because of a zombie pandemic that is destroying the armies and Goverments.
Threatening to destroy all humanity itself, he will try to save the lives of million of strangers as well as his own family.

I think that it is a film very entertaining, with much action and special effects and it has very succesful.

      New technologies in society!!!



      People use more and more the technologies and this can be a problem. Nowadays people publish personal photos and too much personal infomation. Many couples break up because they know too much about life of the couple. I think that social networks increase jealousy between couples.
      The girlfriend gets angry because she sees one boyfriend's coment to an other girl; or the boy gets angry because the girl publishes a photo with an other boy. 


      I don't think that social networks are bad, but if it's used incorrectly, you can get into trouble.



      My experience...
      I don't have problems with social networks because I don't chat with strangers and I take care asn't the photos that I publish.

      Job in Spain

      Now there is a big crisis in our country, and there is no money; because the people have a lot of debts, and they can't pay all of it. So now they're losing their houses. People can't live well, they have got big problems to come in order month. The people that haven't got a job need to get some money, so they're looking for a job in other countries to get some money to themselves and for their families. All these things are provoked by the government and their big debts to other countries or persons.
      I think that if Ididn't have a job here, I would go to live and work abroad to earn some money. And all the people that I know would do the same.
