http://www.vintagebmx.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?u ➡ 8) 8) bArgh! et_topic&f=20&t=000385&p=4#000052hey bret, 30G’s should be at every elite race. The purse should be raised for the big a races too. I think Its time for racers to make just as much money as dirt jumpers and freestylers do. after all these are all takeoffs of racing.
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I liked the non-profit thing. When you think of non-profit, you think of relief funds for something, does the NBL do that and we are not aware. Hoenstly if you think the empoyeees are doing it for free you are nuts. At the local level definitly, officilsat Nats. But you can’t tell me Bob T doesn’t make a decent living, after all he is the CEO of the second largest sanctioning body.
All non-profit means is that after the year is over there can not be any money left over in the books. Thus as long as all of the income is spent on salaries, equipment and costs and there is $0 left over you are non-profit.
Most people don’t realize that non-profits make $$$$$.
Yeah I reaalize that but like Brett says, itsounds nice, makes me think we are going to build house for the homeless. Wow lets go build legend a house this weekend. I just hear that on a local level from some track operators. Like the guys in the ABA are making a ton of money running a local track, Ok sure. I guess that ‘s why I’m working on getting an ABA track up this way

Wink Lets face it. if these pros didn’t have factory sponsorships the money that they would be making would cover their expenses. Then were would they be making a living and paying the normal living expenses. I’ve been ticked off for years at the marketing of bmxracing. The bike companies year ago were able to send their riders all over to every nathional by flying and going on tour in the summer spending a hefty knot. Because they where all making the money to have a big teams because the sport was ding so well. Know the sport has almost no tv coverage. In 83 espn had the pro spectacular. in the 90’s the road to glory series which they would showcase some of the amature classes. now there is nothing but the uci supercross on the dew tour.
thanks for starting this site. now I can vent my frustrations and ideas.
