This week on Coffee Chatter, we catch up with French BMX legend Sylvain André to talk about his past year on the circuit, how he’s handled his arm injury, and what continues to drive his passion for competing at the highest level.

A thoughtful and honest look into the mindset of one of BMX’s most respected pros.

In Show 310: Chatter Time, Tory and James dive into a full mix of BMX talk, sports updates, and hilarious debates—from favorite Pro Gate Europe setups and Tory’s 2026 clinic plans to the Blue Jays’ playoff run, football chatter, and Canucks talk. They imagine what BMX would look like if races lasted a full minute, debate whether pros or Olympians should be allowed to reclassify as amateurs (like golf’s seven-year rule), and break down a wild lap from the French world champ where Bias barely pedaled. In Coach’s Corner, they focus on Grands prep with repeat laps and short accelerations, drop early predictions on fast Euros coming to race, and even toss around a draft idea. The episode wraps with Questions from the Grandstands, featuring Gene Ganson’s classic hypothetical: would you rather fight a chicken every time you get in a car or take one punch from prime Mike Tyson once a year?
