The Red Bull X-Fighters World Tour wouldn't be complete without a visit to the Plaza de Toros de Las Ventas in Madrid. This amazing bullring has been on the calendar for over a decade and it has witnessed some truly titanic head-to-head battles in its time.

From Robbie Maddison showing off the spectacular Volt (Body Varial) that earned him victory in 2010 to Tom Pag̬s throwing down an incredible sequence of never-seen, gravity defying moves last year, the competition in Madrid has intensified with each passing year.

FULLNOSIE.COM.AU's Weekend Ahead



This weekend we will be leaving our Suzuki RM-Z 250 locked up as we head to the sixth round of the Monster Energy MX Nationals in Swan Hill.

While our bike wont see the light of day this weekend, it does not mean that we have no had some fun playing with during the week getting our Yellow beast ready for Hattah.

After spending last weekend at rounds 7 and 8 of the AORC dodging trees, we have given the bike a good clean, stripped her down ready to add some more parts ready for Hattah. New Wheels, tyres, brakes, brake levers, Shift levers and a host of other products are in the process of going our bike which will cover off more heading into next weekend.

For now, it is time to sit in the back of a car and type away as we head to Swan Hill.

THAT's A WRAP
