Over the next couple days, I will be getting the intro premise done for the show. Basically just giving everyone a 3-5 minute heads up on what to expect. This will give a live voice to a lot of the insanity running through my head for BMX. (as well as others, LOL) The show will […]

Almost too unreal to believe, BMXNJ found out through the VintageBMX grapevine today that super quick Factory Ace Anthony Derosa is (for the time being) retiring from BMX racing.

Yes Virgina, there is still BMX racing in NJ. Hot on the heels of the state commissioner of NBL BMX racing in NJ resigning came this “controversial” President’s Cup jersey design from an undisclosed source.
