Bercy can be Classified as a legendary event and the upcoming 28th edition of this historic competition promised another great weekend of sport, entertainment and fun. On the evenings of November 19th, 20th and 21st, the top American and French riders SX will flock to the famous 'Palais Omnisports of Paris Bercy' along with 35,000 excited fans who contribute to the event's unique atmosphere and forge it's renowned reputation.
Bercy would not be complete without FMX riders and once more the show will strive to the 'max' with Andre Villa, Dany Torres, Taka Higashino, Charles Pages, Jeremy Rouanet putting on three separate exhibitions: whips, tricks, and later back-flips.
Add the French SX Tour and the traditional cheerleaders, music and laser show to the overall occasion and you have the perfect program for a great evening !
Don't forget The French Legends. Jean Michel Bayle - will be leading with the number 1 plate; US Supercross Champion, twice World Champion and twice winner in Bercy, JMB is a true legend who is always considered twenty years after his move from MX/SX to road race as an icon. Mickael Pichon - former double US and World champion will be on the track. Still racing Motocross, beach races or Supermoto, Mika (#2) will make his first Supercross appearance for a while and will probably be with David Vuillemin (#934), six times winner in Bercy who just stopped racing last year one of the fittest participants. Triple World Champion Yves Demaria (#1), double World Champions Sébastien Tortelli (#3) and Frederic Bolley (#5), World Champion Jacky Vimond (#29) and Mickael Maschio (#71) will be also behind the gate, as well as US Supercross champion Stephane Roncada (#112), multi French Champion Thierry Bethys (#48), Frédéric Vialle (#7), Yann Guedard (#15) and Daniel Obelisco (#26).
