[Anonomys]

I would like to post something because there seems to be come confusion here. I “ANONOMYS” am not Rich Carolan or some of the other people you guys are throwing out there. I will remain anonomys for my own reasons but I am sure as heck not on here to hide behind a keyboard. I choose to be this way and its not so I could go out there and poke comments out specific people or the organization… My opinion is strictly my opinion as you guys have yours. Is some of what I am stating factual yes. I hate to say it and you guys as much as you won’t admit that know what I am saying is.. Yes in the end we all want to see BMX thrive in the state of NJ. Including Mr Carolan.. Do I have some of my own ideologies on how it is run and how it works YES I DO. Do I ever put down or comment on the Volunteers NO. In fact I have stated many a time that the Volunteers and the Mom’s and DAD’s make up the state organization. ” Please read my Prior postings to clarify this”. My parents Volunteered for many years.. My point was this things need to change and peole need to listen to the older riders. When I say that…. I mean all the older riders. That for one would be a big help.. Do I think personally that the contribution Mr Carolan could have offered to the Flemington BMX track would of been good yes. That is my opinion. I just read that people get things in there head about someone before they get to even chat with them personally and I know that the primary reason that Mr Carolans money wasn’t utilized as stated below his “reputation” In the end he was trying to help out not cause a major controversy.. You individuals are entitled to your opinions and thats fine. I know many of you are throwing out there who you think I am and all that. Thats not the point. Hayden you volunteer and you add alot to BMX I stated that many times. Do I think that sometimes you don’t listen to some certain individuals… Yes but thats you and your decesions.. Not a bad thing.. Rich Farside I read what you wrote I QUOTE ” Farside I wasn’t bagging on your bro I was giving you props and i think you read that. Hayden. we might not see eye to eye but I am not bagging on you either.. I think the sport needs some help and now that some of us old riders are in a position to i think it needs to be done. Farside I haven’t said anything but positive things about you. again see quoted section. So again you guys having this factor of “who I am is irrelevant”. I am on here to bring out some solid points again some you may think are good others you don’t. So lets end this name war and trying to figure out who I am because in the end its all about making BMX in NJ better.

You know what guys… Its kind of funny how you say tuff guys hind behind keyboards I am not starting anything with anyone. Lets get that Straight. I have opinions like all of you do bottom line. I think i brought up aolt of good points. you might not thnk so but I do know a little about BMX… Farside I wasn’t bagging on your bro I was giving you props and i think you read that. Hayden. we might not see eye to eye but I am not bagging on you either.. I think the sport needs some help and now that some of us old riders are in a position to i think it needs to be done. Democratically….

I do not know who Jeff is… But I am not him.. So call me whoever you would like….

Man hayden you really do throw it out there. Build a track set by the conditions of one. Come on… What I am saying is that it should be discussed.. 20 motos is what it is these days but IT ccould be better. “after you have been back a while lecture me” You know what man you don’t listen to the people that haven’t left bro. So what diffence does it make wether he has been around a while or not.. Come down and help saturday so you could over rule all that intervene. Thats what it seems. You still haven’t answered who makes the decesions on he Flemington track… Is it a democracy or a dictatorship…? Put up or shut up is alot coming form a guy that HATED NJBMX FOR HMMMMM 10 plus years. How things change huh… Oh well I can’t say much because I won’t. You do volunteer and you have never been scared to work hard for the sport Bill and that I admire. You truly volunteer but man you do throw alot out there when all people want to do is help.

[Anonomys]

Rich… I guess Hayden told you why they wouldn’t accept your monetary contribution. Some volunteer spoiled it for all. Oh well I think NJ is losing out because it couldn’t be discussed instead you and or IT was over ruled. OH well another 20 years of Flemington still being the same. I can’t bag on it. Its a place to ride but I sure as heck would of loved the change you could of offered. Let the dictators rule the roost.. Its the way it is man…

[Anonomys]

Hayden. To be honest I have no beef with you. I am sorry if it came off that way.. BUT… You are acting exactly like what the whole BMX organization acts like in this state. With the “supreme ruler syndrome” Let me ask you a good question. Who makes the decesions about Flemington? You or is it Matt Danek? Shouldn’t there be a vote about how the track should be made. Or is this done by a non democratic way. This is the USA.. Come on man I understand where you are coming from but the state has serious issues. Also just to note something.. You did post your comment to RICH .. If you meant me you should of titled it to Anonomys. You can see how that got confused…

Donate it to the state are you kidding me. Seriously. Do you just jump into the state organization like you have been here for years… Come on Split it up equally. He wants to donate it to his HOME TRACK. Where his roots are why can’t Flemington use the money. Also who is this “WE” at Flemington. PLease let me know who they are so I can address them too! Again you harp on the volunteer thing again.. This isn’t about the volunteers. AGAIN for the 4th time you guys offer a great big help to the sport of BMX and Thank you Mr hayden I KNOW YOU VOLUNTEER. This is about making the Sport in NJ better..

Another thing how could you ask for the money with no stipulations. Would you give money to an organization if they told you that you could have no input. Just give me the money. Come on man I know you wouldn’t…

Look I have no clue if you are on the board or not. You were away from NJBMX for many years. Are you now the state commissioner? Or are you the Track Director at Flemington? You are a volunteer that adds input to the state. My point exactly. You should be open to listening to others and not just close the door on them..

Again not being rude just stating my opinion as you have and will continue to do… I don’t mean anything I say in a derrogative manner.

[Anonomys]

Man Hayden you have some set of NUTS. He wasn’t critisizing you at all or the Volunteers. Are you reading the same posting.. Yeah its really easy to critisize the track but for you who raced ABA for hmm until a few years back then decide to come join back to the NJ side of things should really re-consider throwing daggers.. You raced all PA tracks until up to a few years ago. I don’t think he said the tracks are so miserable… What he is saying is that he wants to make them better and if you who was a ABA track builder don’t think Flemington needs to change then I don’t know what. Maybe you would have 40 moto’s if you made the track better. You know it. Again . NO ONE IS SAYING ANYTHING ABOUT THE VOLUNTEERS. IS that all you guys know how to do is say we are putting down the Volunteers. AGAIN WITHOUT VOLUNTEERS THE SPORT WOULD DIE.. PERIOD.. All he was saying is that he offerd and it was declined and now after reading your posting maybe you are one of the people that didn’t want the help. Again all the people in NJ need to work together or this just won’t work at all.

In Reference to Crazy Craig……. I used to race you in the day. Many a Main Event. Nice to see yu return to BMX…

Rich – if you don’t mind me saying – I know you of all people have a forgiving spirit – so don’t give up on us yet!!!

I don’t know how you made your offer to help – but we just have to knock on enough doors and find the right people to speak to. But – if HCBMX is worried that you want to take over – then lets use the money to fix the monster at CJBMX.

Honest Rich – there is a lot to do here in NJ – and we need ya – don’t give up on us.

I will personally talk to Rich if he decides to smoke the CRACK pipe about throwing any money Howell’s Way. Sorry about that… Craig.. Rich you are the man and you know that But it all rolls down to the same problem I stated above the people involved in this sport need to listen to the riders and I know you wanted to just give them the money and add your personal expertise and knowledge to make the Flemington track better. Basically bring it into the 2000’s. I am totally right when I say the track layout hasn’ changed at all with the exception of the last straight away that even the best riders in the country are tired by the time they get there.. In any event again people all think they no more than the other in this state when in reality we should all work together and lose the GOD complex. In my opinion Flemington should of took your money in open arms and made the track national caliber. It would only make us all better. Draw more riders because the track is good which in turn makes the track a little cash. Improves the reputation and makes the NBL money…. Man you are a generous person and just because they don’t want your help know that your thoughts and intentions are truly admired if no one else will say it I WILL. Thanks you for the generous offer and its a shame they didn’t jump on it. AGAIN another example of not listening to the riders.

Craig I have been doing this for over 25 years and I didn’t quit… knocking on doors won’t help brother. You are correct in your thinking but. It won’t..

Rich man lets catch up and have a beer brother… Thanks again for the generosity… I personally am glad to see you back in NJ.

Craig good to see you back….

Oh and I forgot to add one other thing to the gentleman who also commented. Lets get one thing straight because I think you didn’t understand what i was saying.. VOLUNTEERS MAKE THIS SPORT. the mothers and Fathers dedicate the time for the kids and that is so important. Bagging on the tracks has nothing to do with the volunteers.. None at all. So please undertsnad where i am coming from. we have three tracks left and I think NJ and the state organization needs to listen to the riders. BMx legend I want to see you and 8 fast guys all at once hit some of the jumps at Howell and live thru it. If you do which you might be able to do… i have no clue who you are. I will gladly shake your hand in respect. All I am saying is that I know many of the older riders would volunteer but bottm line the politics in this state and the state orgaization is quirky. To many politics. Hey man I am happy the state has three tracks to race. I appreciate the Volunteers. I appreciate the Board members that make it work. All i am saying as that some things need to be changed to move forward with this sport and make it all around better and if you honestly say you don’t agree I will respect your opinion but please respect mine..

We all have a common goal love for the sport of BMX

[Anonomys]

OkAY BMX legend. I will say this be careful who you bag on… I am in no means bagging on anyone…. All I am saying is that the state of NJ needds to listen to the older riders wheter or not they are OLD school coming back or riders that have been around. Flemington has been the same for almost 15 years. Argue that fact. Can’t sorry Right. Cause I am right and No adding dirt to the jumps don’t count. Its a good place to Ride and the volunteers make the sport today. I recognize them and I respect them to answer the other dudes comment. The NBL as a whole is stuck in the Dark ages as far as alot of things and thats why the rider count is low.

[Anonomys]

You know there is other OLD school riders that never quit and raced straight thru till now. Those guys deserve as much props as those who came back.. NO doubt some really good old school riders came back like Rich Farside. Who by the way complains the jumps are two easy for him… OK Rich we are not all as good as you…. LOL…. Without many of those guys sticking with the sport it wouldn’t be where it is now. I want to thank the riders who stuck with the sport as well. Some of them don’t get credit so thank you…..!!!!!

OH and someone needs to bring the New Jersey tracks up to date with the rest of the world.. Whats up with that. Lets See…. HOWELL – Death Track. Flemington – MAJOR OLD SCHOOL.. EGG Harbor. Smooth as glass. No complaints there… There has to be a medium for all riders… These tracks could be fast challenging and and have big jumps and not be a death sentence as in I won’t say the tracks name.

Long Live Old school Riders and the Riders that stuck with it all these years…

Thank you !!!
