"The White Devil" - KID DYNAMITE TEAM YOUNG BLOOD

BMX racing is my life. I have over 35 years experience in the sport. From being both a top National caliber racer ( Many District #1's, NAG, and National Plates, and Gold Cup West Champion) and managing/officiating events on the district, state, regional, national, and World Cup levels. I have gained invaluable experience in the BMX racing world both on and off the track. I have also completed all the requirements to become an International Commissaire for (UCI) Union Cyclist International and have managed several International BMX events in the USA and South America. I have also been involved officiating many BMX World Cup events as well as both the 2008 and 2012 USA Olympic Trials for BMX and Team USA. I also attend the 2012 Olympics in London for BMX. I deal with the who's who in the BMX industry pretty much on a daily basis. I'm in tune with what's going on in the BMX racing world. I help make it happen every day. I'm a great player on an awesome team!

Started riding BMX in Sep 2013. I took my kids to Hesperia BMX and soon after I got the itch to get on a bike, so I bought a cruiser. I started racing class (20") in Feb 2014. I enjoy racing both class & cruiser. Disciple of Jesus Christ. Father of 4. Devoted husband to T. I also love skateboarding, motocross, music, warrior spirits, snowboarding, traveling, EATING, the ocean, tattoos, sushi, and being a family man. I own a print company called MINT PRINT MEDIA that specializes in Large Format & Offset Printing.

I started racing BMX in the mid 1970's in the St. Louis area. I continued to race through the 1980's and stopped racing once I began my career. I did return to racing in 2005, but have since retired. I received my Bachelor's Degree in Recreation and my Master's Degree in Sports Management; both from Southern Illinois University Edwardsville. I began my career in public parks and recreation and later moved on to campus recreation. From there I moved into athletics administration and eventually became a college athletic director. I left the sports world in 2007 for a short time before going to work for USA Cycling. I was with USA Cycling for two years before joining the American Bicycle Association in 2009. I remained there through 2017 as the Chief Marketing Officer and Director of New Track Development. I operate Grand Valley BMX in Grand Junction, Colorado. My family and I have operated the track since 2006 and have been a Top 10 track since 2008. Additionally, I became a certified USA BMX Coach in 2014. I enjoy teaching kids of all ages and enjoy attracting new riders to the sport. I can attribute much of my success to the lessons I learned on a BMX track and enjoy giving others the same opportunity. I have worked with numerous athletes, was the manager for the Team USA World's Team in Medellin, Colombia in 2015 and am also an Elite National BMX Commissaire. I believe in the fundamentals of sport and believe that to be successful in any sport you must have a strong fundamental base. While training and fundamentals are a key to success, you also have to mix in a little fun. I enjoy the many aspects of coaching and working with kids and adults of all ages on improving their skills.

(From the 2010 NATIONAL BMX HALL OF FAME Ceremnoy) Few industries have a person so well known and respected that one name suffices in identifying them. In the music biz, there's Bono, Cher and Madonna. And in BMX, we have "gOrk." (usually spelled with a small "g," and capital 'O.") As someone who has raced since 1976 - at age 13, on both the local and national level (UBR National No.1 sidehack three years running), rode-in and promoted freestyle shows in its infancy, worked in the warehouse at CW Racing, and served as Editor of both the iconic BMX ACTION and ABA`s BMXer Magazines, before becoming marketing director of Redline BIcycles for 11 years - it's safe to say that gOrk has made his mark on nearly every era of our sport It was during the 90's - with the ABA, when he began doodling the characters known as Juan Hander & Noah Footer - which are currently in the process of being scanned an retouched for a series of books. In 1999, after 10 years with ABA, gOrk moved to the Pacific Northwest to join Seattle Bike Supply as the Director of Marketing for their flagship brand, Redline Bicycles. It was there, with the red, white and black that he assembled some of the greatest Redline riders in the brand's history - from Bubba Harris to Kim Hayashi, to Sam Willoughby, Alise Post and Jason Carne$. In 2011, gOrk returned to Arizona to work for USA BMX as their Chief Communications Officer, where he is managing editor of PULL and in charge of all social media and website communication with the members of USA BMX.

As Canada’s one and only BMX Olympian in 2012, Tory has long been hailed as the fastest BMXer north of the 49th parallel. (In fact, that is the reason why Tory selected 49 as his career number). As a longtime ABA racer - young Tory became one of the few Canadians to ever earn a NAG (National Age Group) No.1 plate in the U.S.. Backed by American sponsors - from Redline to Staats, one of his toughest competitors was his good friend from Nevada - Connor Fields. The two helped push eachother to new speeds, and there’s no coincidence that they both went on to become AA-pros and Olympians. Like many racers, Tory has seen his ups and downs in the sport; having to overcome some major injuries. Prior to the 2008 Olympics (and being too young to qualify), he was helping train Canada’s two fastest pros before Beijing - and crashed so hard that he broke both arms. But like all successful BMX racers, he overcame that obstacle and went on to race in London in 2012. Tory has ridden for Redline Bicycles for years, and has also been training with famed French BMX coach P.H. Sause for over a decade now. In 2013, Tory placed 5th in the UCi Worlds main - making him the 5th fastest BMXer in the World.

David Herman is an American racing cyclist who represents the United States in BMX. He represented the United States at the 2012 Summer Olympics in the men’s BMX event.

I am 21 years old, currently living in Long Beach, California, but soon relocating to Glibert, Arizona. I started racing BMX in 2002 at Orange Y BMX in Orange, California. My dad raced as a teenager at Chandler BMX in Arizona. At the time I started racing my brother had already been racing for a few years, but I had finally decided that I wanted to give it a try. My first national was just a short three weeks later in Reno, Nevada at the season opener of 2003. From 2003 to 2008, my dad, my brother and I raced around the country hitting every race possible, chasing points year after year. Beginning in 2008, my dad and I began attending the World Championships. I saw much success at these races in China, Australia, South Africa, and Denmark. After taking a hiatus from BMX for a short time while I was attending nursing school, I am now back doing what I love, racing BMX. Currently, I race in the 21-25 Girls and Girls Cruiser classes in the USA BMX National Series.

The name's Juan Hander - and if you've been racing since the 90's, you might know me. My buddy Noah - a former Pro champion, and I used to have our own monthly feature in American BMXer magazine (which later became the BMXer). Yup ... we had some crazy times back then. After fading from the spotlight during the 00's, me 'n Noah are still at it - racing locals and the occasional State race. In fact, I recently went thru the USA BMX Coaching Certification and am now a Licensed USA BMX Coach. I've got the card to prove it! So .. if you really suck at racing, like I once did, and want to get better - be sure to look me up.

Just a So Cal BMX'ER who learned to Ride at Legendary Twin Palms in Riverside, CA. Soon started racing at Riverside BMX and Coal Canyon BMX and got hooked. Watched and met many good riders like Mike Haupt, Chris Schoonover, Ryan Vanderveen, Robert "Cuz" Taylor, Mike Rebelo, Bubba Harris, Dwight Tardy, Andre Ellison, Tj Ellis, Gilbert Contreras, Greg Romero, Tanner Sabesta, Todd Lyons, Eric Carter, Barry Nilson and Jason Carnes who are just a few of my favorite riders and Racers. Stopped racing for about 16 years till moving to El Paso, Texas where I found a new home track in Desert Downs BMX. Lots of history there and I'm glad to call it my home track. Been racing four years now and am loving my AWESOME new friends. Eric Watts, Frankie "The Freight Train Teddy Bear" Patterson, Joseph Beck, Mike McKay, Clint Nelms and Rick Guthrie. ¡ BMX4LIFE !
