Craig’s right, there’s enough of us wackos to get this rolling..
Scary thing is, we’ll all work together.
September 9th could be an interesting afternoon for BMX in NJ.bmiddaughMemberYea..
lol, we could never support 23 tracks anywhere today.
But a few new tracks will help not hurt.
What would help immensely would be small “practice” tracks in towns.
Small 4 man beginner tracks, small jumps, for kids to learn on.
25 – 50 of those and watch the turnouts at races go up and up.
Is skateboarding hurting because there are skateparks EVERYWHERE now?
Heck no!
It’s ALL in the marketing.
I think Debbie meant she is making parental enemies, lol…
I actually believe this site and the guys on it are responsible for more kids moving up out of beginner than anything else in NJ at the moment, lol…bmiddaughMemberSee, I knew I had the best minds working here….
bmiddaughMemberLook dunrite beginners and novices have their place and that place is putting money in the nbl’s pockets at nationals.
Locals, come on man, hows that gonna feed the rolling atm? 😆bmiddaughMemberBack in my day, 79-85, I raced both.
It’s very easy to race aba
VERY.
You only get points in the main.
Someone at every race is not going to make it, so yes, the feel good thing of everyone gets a trophy goes out the window, BUT this is racing, so somebody has to lose.
They always run mains.
3 motos- transfer out.
run main.
They do state series but they ALL run under the same rules, those plates like nbl plates can only be run in state.
At all races you go to you get district points, that count towards your district plate that you run anywhere, (sorta like a regional plate, but you aren’t sucked into the money machine of having to hit some dumb regional championship). In the 80’s NJ had 4 districts, the biggest being in south NJ and far north NJ.
If you want a high district plate you better be racing lots of locals or kicking national ass as district points are also earned at nationals.
Nationals are best left to Lead explaining.bmiddaughMemberMore tracks=
more places to ride=
more riders.
Just need promotion and egos put aside.
We had about 23 tracks in NJ back in the 80’s.
I don’t believe 5 or 6 is going to hurt the sport.
Everyone for some strange reason believes that adding a track means you have to race it every week.
No, just race what you like and GROW YOUR LOCAL PROGRAM.
GROW YOUR LOCAL PROGRAM

Forget Nats, regionals, all the other stuff
the kid on the walmart special is most important right now.bmiddaughMemberThe money left over that I account for adds up to $95.00 a rider.
The tracks are seperate entities that pay their own maintenance.
Which if everyone orders a jersey, and has to pay for it before hand they only get reimbursed if they go.
Oh, it was Behm who got kicked out of a state meeting for asking to see where the money is going.
Again, I’m not accusing or making weird rumors.
I’ve just been to 4 meetings and never seen anything that says where the money goes and what costs what.
It’s in the bylaws.
But “budget” meetings are always “closed” meetings.
Give me a break, just say x to jerseys, x to pens, x to plates.
That’s why people like the Behms start wondering what’s going on, ’cause ya keep all the nonsense like where the money is going for legit stuff secret.
Duh.bmiddaughMemberEver hear of N Korea, S Korea, the war isn’t over….but there is a very uneasy truce?
Ok, then. 😆bmiddaughMemberSite was down till the early a.m…(Don’t you guys and gals sleep?, lol!) So I needed some rest and decided to get it going this am. Have fun….
bmiddaughMemberDAMN, the men here ALWAYS get to the bottom of things…
NJ is DANGEROUS.
Very cool Craig, hehe….bmiddaughMemberLet’s get it on.
Go to them, we will back you.bmiddaughMemberI can tell you this, when all the details are squared away, there will be no secrets.
