Shirtless BMX Riders: Bicycle Motocross Racing Hunks

Shirtless BMX Riders: Bicycle Motocross Racing Hunks. Seems like Famewatchers are loving our entries on shirtless athletes (like ’em shirtless NASCAR drivers and shirtless golfers), so we decided to do another post on hunky sportsmen focusing this time on BMX riders. We must admit that, at first, we didn’t find BMX racing to be that interesting but when we chanced upon a race on TV during the London 2012 Olympics, we were thrilled by the sport.

Maris Strombergs: Anyhoo, let’s check out the leading men of Bicycle motocross racing and we begin our list of shirtless BMX riders with probably the most bemedalled of them all: Maris Strombergs of Latvia (the guy in the first pic above). Maris won the Olympic gold medal for the men’s BMX event in the Beijing 2008 and he re-asserted his reign as the King of the Hill when he won his second gold medal during the London 2012 Olympic Games.

Apart from his two Olympic golds, Maris also boasts of two gold medals from the BMX World Championships (2008 Taiyan and 2010 Pietermaritzburg). However, he settled for the silver medal during the 2011 BMX World Championships in Copenhagen.

Sifiso Nhlapo: This 26-year-old BMX racer from Soweto, South Africa bagged the silver medal at the 2010 UCI BMX World Championships. He placed third in the 2008 BMX World Championships but was also awarded the silver medal following a positive drug test for the original silver medalist.
