Gumball 3000 BMX rider Lima has just got back from a trip in the south of France and Barcelona, Spain with some friends. He has been over riding some trails, firstly in a small village called Peyneir near Aix en Provence, practicing some 360 turns. They then ran into some trouble after making a quick decision to jump on a train to Barcelona.

The journey consisted of a couple of changes and at the first change the train decided to leave before they could get their bikes off. Meaning they had to take a separate trip to fetch them back, which took them two and a half hours.

Finally they reached Barcelona from Marseille in the middle of the night. Upon arriving in Barcelona the group kicked back and enjoyed some beers followed by a sight seeing trip the next day, even seeing a Wooly Mammoth for the first time and finding a skateboard shop with real old vintage boards. Lima was picked by Gumball 3000 to be their more underground cool trails rider.

However this was all thrown out the window when he went and won the Dirt Jump British Championships AQT at the 2006 Urban Games whilst riding for Gumball. Still only 21 he is one of the most respected trails / dirt riders in the country. His next stop will be will be Czech Republic for a BMX competition.
