Been racing for the last 5 yrs., for the second time around ! Raced when I was younger back in the late 70's early 80's ! And by what a difference it is now, tracks are a lot more difficult now !! Remember when you could power slide into a turn and get back on the gas ! What were clip shoes, everybody was on flats in all skill levels !! Over the last couple years I have been racing more races each year, doing more state races, gold cups, and nationals ! I have also been too the Grands twice now ! For anyone that hasn't been, I would suggest going at least once ! It's a fun time and a lot of competition, shows where you stand when you race people from all over the county ! My home track in an old NBL track called Hire Park BMX in Warsaw Indiana ! The people there are so friendly and fun to race with ! The TO does an awesome job at announcing the races, that I think should be doing Nationals !

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 !

Racing again after 40 years! I had not been on a bmx track since 1982 (40 years)! Then, my friend Mark Darcy talked me into racing at the Frogtown vintage reunion race.. I had a great time racing there, then two weeks later Art Ornelas from Race Inc offered me a spot on the factory team for 2023 and set me up with a new Race Inc 24" Cruiser! After that, Mark and I Spent the day putting the bike together just about one week before the Silver Dollar Nationals, I was hoping Vegas wasnt my first race, but with the weather, thats exactly what happened! In the end, lack of time on the bike really proved problematic. I made small mistakes each day that kept me out of the mains, but Sunday I did make the semi.. with some trianing and time on the bike, I am hoping to be a differnt racer in the near future..
