Courtesy of my ol bro, Andy Moraller. This is 8mm video footage of the 3rd World Championship in Indianapolis, Indiana. Andy’s Dad was good enough to have an old (then new) 8mm video camera and captured this footage. This is over 31 years old…Andy is actually on there somewhere but there is also a lot […]
Some video from Jim Stinson, an OS BMX rider from PA. Watch and see Mr Stix founder, Dave Scruggs (3:13 in) and future National 1 rider, Danny Notte (5:15 in), in 1980…31 YEARS AGO! LEGENDS of BMX in NJ. (Danny was from my home town.)
Courtesy of Brian Shute, this is some historical footage of Brian racing, as well as a tribute to where most of the east coast BMX community would wind up in the winter months, The Jersey City Armory. Realize this footage is TWENTY FIVE YEARS OLD.
It’s been summer since we last checked in with Brian Shute’s archived BMX footage and since it is the holidays we figured it may be time to give a bit of an old school present to the NJ racers. So here is another installment of classic 80’s racing video. Without further rambling…here is more of […]
Yea, It’s turning into “Tim Cook’s BMXNJ”, lol. It is seriously great to have these guys who were around at the very beginning of BMX in NJ sending in stuff like this. I hope all the old guys are saying, “HA! I remember that” and any of the new school guys are saying, “No sh** […]
Scanned in by…Tim Cook. He’s all over this place lately! Tim was good enough to take the time to scan in the tour book from the 1978 Schwinn NBA National Tour. (yes, that tour from Joe Kid On A Stingray) It says 3rd place novice on the front of the book scan I got, so […]
These are race clips given to BMXNJ.com by Tom Nieradka from the 85 Open at Deptford. There are plenty of different classes. Here we go with video 3. We started this thang, let’s finish it! LOL
(Update: Tim Cook emailed me last night and pointed out a few things! #34 in the photos is actually his brother Geoff Cook. #82 is Tim himself rocking the old school ashtabula cranks and forks. The photo in the gallery where Dechert is losing that pedal….1979 Craigmeur and the guy out front? Tim Cook! Thanks […]

I was off playing, “I wanna be a freestyle guy” but racing was still going full bore in NJ. My friend from those days, Tom Nieradka, gave me a bunch of videos from those years back when I was looking for my HVTT videos. I’ll be adding 15-25 minutes of these videos over the next […]
