Australian BMX champion Todd Meyn was very impressed with the Malta BMX facilities located in Pembroke after he recently took part during an activity organized by Nitro Circus led by Travis Pastrana, a Pro action sports athlete. Todd was so satisfied with those sporets facilities in Malta, that he promised to be back here again for Christmas MBX Fest organized by the Maltese BMX Association together with the participation of other international riders. He also praised the Maltese for their hospitality and said how much lucky the local children are who can practice their favorite sport in such good facilities which are always improving.

BMX sensation Todd Meyn has come a long way to be as good as he is. He started out riding as a kid in Perth, Australia, but quickly realized he needed to move somewhere bigger if he wanted to pursue BMX professionally. It's a good thing he did. At age 15, after a BMX-focused trip to the U.S., Todd placed second in a professional competition. Next came sponsors and real opportunity. Todd eventually made his way to Nitro, and he hasn't looked back, with a resume full of impressive tricks. He was also a serious contender in the inaugural Nitro World Games, where he made the finals competing against some of the best riders in the world.
