    Yea, I can’t wait to see the Pro, AA, Superclass, Elite.,…WTF does the UCI call the freaking pro class anyhow?..on NBC primetime..
    Oh wait, what’s that about a snowball in where?
    We all know the time has come for Pro level tracks and local “get to know BMX” tracks. The real problem is why aren’t these world championships on TfreakingV.

    For the pros….fill those damn dubs with some water….

    Dave….
    I was just discussing this with Dale…
    If BMX wants real coverage, we need to get the pro level racing OFF THE GROUND….Literally.

    Bill,
    I think you should let the dog run free and we should leash you!… 😆

    hey I saw the Punisher, he brought a knife and wooped a**!

    Top ten reasons not to bring a dog to a BMX track.
    I’ll start…

    10. There’s enough obstacles on the track without having dog “whoopdedoos” to have to step around.

    9. They can’t be put on team sheets.

    8. One more reason that “my kid can’t leave the rookie class”, he has to watch the dog.

    Interesting…
    If this is a person who wishes only to criticize and not offer any positive input then he could easily be banned from racing in NJ, as in NJ we only have NBL tracks to offer. I would personally love the opporutunity to sit down and BS with top level management, though acting like a child during race time is just ludicrous.
    Perhaps we can narrow this down to….racer, parent or just a volunteer?

    Soon as I get the council running these problems will take care of themselves… 😉

    Can’t leave the dog home while you’re out racing?
    I’m gonna move this over to the General BS section, not to offend anyone but it sorta feels like it belongs there…

    From what I’ve seen of you Loren, you’re a good guy who cares about his kids and BMX…
    So I say you know one heck of a lot.
    Your humility is also a heck of an attribute. (guiness here came up with the Anderson benefit stickers)

    The way I look at things right now, is that we have 1 year to get word out about BMX racing and it’s legitimacy as an ADULT sport with highly skilled athletes.
    I’m sick of “men on little kids bikes”, B.S….
    Bill Hayden actually came up with this idea and we were two dog nuts from actually having a meeting with some of us…
    I listen to everyone talk and I think it’s time we got our collective sh*t together.
    Let’s be realistic, the UCI is screwing BMX over. We just had a national run by all volunteers. Race fee $45.00 per day. I dunno, there is just so much I have learned in the last few months that I feel as though if we start to look like an organized force, that promotes BMX as WE SEE FIT. Maybe someone will take a look at those, “guys who ride the little kids bikes”.

    Here, I have a perfect example.
    Watching TV last night and there is a commercial for the “X-Games Moto Bike” WTF is that? Not only that but they used the freaking words BMX IN THE COMMERICAL!!!! That is a POS that was come up with by a marketing firm to appeal to a “preceived” demographic.
    It should have been a 30 second promo for REAL BMX RACING, GOD, I can’t stand it anymore….
    BMX IS THE BIGGEST DRAW at X Games, DEW, Gravity…..It’s time WE threw down the gauntlet and told the MARKETING FIRMS, WTF is up. We know, we ride, we rode, we will continue to ride….
    By the end of this summer the UBMXRC will be some sort of reality, and I would hope that through our different connections we can get the true champions of BMX “as a whole” on board with us.

    Ask yourself this question….Greg Hill was nominated to be on the Board of the NBL…he ISN’T there…..Why? How? What? The guy is BMX. This rider revolution has already occured in freestyle BMX, it’s high time it occured in racing.

    lmao!!
    United BMX Riders Council

    Anyone feel like designing a nice high class logo?

    UBMXRC is grassroots, it’s pro level, it’s T.O friendly… it’s the guys who know what needs to be done getting together and making a presence.

    Though Dave’s clips acronym is pretty damn funny…

    Sorry to say that I have nothing from the Nats. It was a bit of a bear just to get down there that day. I’ll repost the results from the NBL site when they get them up, but if anyone has pictures or anything I’d be happy to post them on the front of the site.

    The UBMXRC is coming…

    I believe NBC will take the lead and do a HUGE run up for BMX racing prior to the Olympics. I have faith. I also have inside news that the Dew Tour may be expanded to 23 stops in 07…that’s a lot of venues to fill with “action sports”.
    Let’s hope that little sculpture is indicative of how serious pushing BMX out there is about to become.
