you still have 300 people in line with swipe cards…
i dont know if i am slow or what but how does this eliminate the line? i guess if it cuts it down from 4 hrs to 2 thats a plus!!
then you have the new rules of “only the owner of the card is allowed to swipe, no swiping of anothers card for them…haha” there will be counterfeit swiping cards like canadian coins… i can see someone in line with 25 cards in his hand swiping for his whole team..haha i see a riot happening here….
i like the idea though… you say the aba already does this? how long are their lines at the grands? does anyone know?
bmxmom156Memberholy crap you remembered that show? sure i used to watch it with my grandmother every day after school i think it followed her fav daytime soap opera ( now you got me going i cant remember that one) had alot of doctors in it i think??
maybe i was in 1st grade?? so you had to be in a high chair still?? lol
barnabas collins and anjolique something or other was his gf?? i forget who was a warewolf and who was not?? haha
see that ginko stuff really works
bmxmom156Memberwho was the guy with the show who always had the cigarette hanging out of his mouth? i cant remember his name i think he went to jail for drugs or something??
dinah shore?? i didnt even watch her she was way too old for me!! haha
but i do remember barnabas collins…. at 4 pm every day after school
who remembers the name of this show? hint hint… (initials DS)
bmxmom156Memberyaaa…. like 2 people serving at a window in wendys drive thru with a line of 300 starving people waiting for thier lunch orders…
bmxmom156Memberhaha..oh thats right you ARE old… 😉
the only merv my son knows is when kramer does his imitation on seinfeld..haha one of his fav episodes!
the brett springer show? bill you can be in charge of security 😯
bmxmom156Memberhow bout you get your own show like merv griffin( too young to remember him?) then you can interview guests from each sanction, hold public debates, have entertainment etc( keeping it clean of course it would be a family show)
ok maybe you should be the dr phil of bmx??(is that better?) im sure you can come up with a creative name for the show.
now i know i must be going nuts too
bmxmom156Memberok bill i guess i asked for that 😳
now how bout location in madison???
bmxmom156Memberagree.. how about race the year you were born for gosh sakes!!
no brainer … all kids born in 1991 race 15 yr olds all yr?? i think the worlds was based on whatever age you were as of dec 31st of that yr…. now they planned to change it to july 31st( the usual weekend of the worlds) so the nbl wants to follow suit??i dont know maybe this would make a nightmare for the folks in local registration?? i cant say for sure as i dont do registration. maybe janeen can shed some light.
i just wish they would make up thier minds.
i dont think it has anything to do with parents i think its the uci/nbl decision
bmxmom156Memberit was called “the clash” and it was neat i think we raced at flem and at bensalem. i forget how we earned the points but all in all points/trophies or not it was a fun experience. nbl rules and transfer system at flem and aba at bensalem…
was definitley a ground breaking event (plus ruffled a few feathers in the upper organizations in the process)
you would have to ask jeff about the specifics…
bmxmom156Memberwhat did people do when it was 10 locals and 4 state qualifiers?
honestly- why have a state series at all??( sarcastic tone) its hard i know for the riders to get the state races in if you do nationals but if you cut it down even more the local tracks suffer.
much of the prob comes from rainouts when you cant get your races in.
you get the right to choose local/ state/ reg/ nat…no one says you have to do all of these. the reg series is for folks who dont want to travel that far for the nats but want sometihing a little bigger than the state…. i believe thats why it was set up…not for the national riders to do all the nationals and all the regionals and states then complain that they cant get any locals in for the state series because there are too many races..its called pick and choose you cant please everyone… if you spend all your money on every race thats your choice 😯 crazy but it happens…
bmxmom156Memberi think there are showers in the mens/ ladies rooms near the pool. i didnt personally use them but 2 yrs ago a few of the people we knew who camped used them and they said the ladies one was very clean. that year it was really warm out and kids also swam in the pool there as well.
just remember anywhere you camp tent or rv) or park is a hike to the track so bringing something with wheels ( like a dolly or hand truck) is a plus.coolers w/wheels are highly recommended.
the go carts are a separate price ( i think $5/ few laps) and parts of the skate park is a pay one price wrist band for the day like $30 i think so bring the cashu with you if you have a few kids…lol… food is decent in the canteen just remember everything is pricey so if you make sandwiches or bring your own drinks you will be ahead of the game.
bmxmom156Membersorry if i came off a little strong but it just seemed so obvious… kind of like asking if the louisville track hosts the grands does it count for a local going towards their state series???
maybe see if its included in the “new rider handbook” if there is such a thing for the state? or better yet on the “new and improved” njbmx website in the “new riders section”?? what do you think?
bmxmom156Memberrumble in trumble i like that!
see ya there.
bmxmom156Memberi would think 99% of riders/ or parents know that a regional or national is an nbl event and is not a local race. most people ask before they shell out the $35 to find out what the race is for? what points it goes towards, etc. i know if someone told me that the race( local) cost $35 i would ask WHY before i signed up…. so janeen some of this i think is because (now i will prob get beat up for this one) nj parents are ‘spoon fed’ information instead of trying to find out about it on their own… i think janeen more than spells it out for everyone in the state to the point that no one has to THINK on thier own anymore… when we started we knew nothing and had to find out everything by reading the magazine.. ( believe me i was a points nazi at one time so i had to read everything ) it is plain and simple what points go to what just have to read the rules….
sorry to get on the soap box but for someone at this stage of the game to blame janeen for ANYTHING to do with points because you didnt understand them is pathetic… its the end of the season people and you have had months to check this out… not talking about newbies but some of these people who are complaining( i hear it) have been around for years…
ok thats it for me… get your races in and enjoy the few months we have left before the snow…( haha) and stop your complaining already!!
bmxmom156Memberok hayden where in mo county? pm i f you dont want to post just yet. its a big county ya know!
