Tuesday March 16 Practice

First off let me start out by saying, great turnout last night! The BMX Crew was in full force at Simi's Sycamore BMX track. Those in attendance were Jeremy, Evan, Nate, Travis, Gregg, and myself. Tabetha and Deanna came by to check it out, and Giant's new demo coordinator Eric came along and snapped a few great photos.

We practiced gate starts, including a few random gates, (the gate is dropped at random, the only indication is the sound of a few horns) worked on pumping the first straightaway and the rhythm section. I even saw Jeremy do a few X-ups over the big double and it looked like he was going to try a can-can. We had a blast, rode the entire practice, and came out without any injuries. Success! Join us next time, you will not regret it.

Longer days, shorter nights

Mark your calendars, march 14th is the day that Daylight Savings begins. This is awesome for us on The Crew because we get out to Simi's Sycamore BMX more often. (even though they have lights) Wednesdays are the days The Crew will be there for practice. And we will start racing shortly after this daylight savings thing happens. More details to follow...

I'll leave you with this, you are never too young or old, get out and ride!
