2025 Race Blog - Year 9 - Still Lunging for the Line!

Thanks mate! I sometimes wonder whether I should keep posting these reports in what is essentially an old school forum, so it's good to know that they're being read. Plus I am an old school BMXer at heart and it was a RAD member who originally sorted me out with my first new school race rig (thanks Dan!), so I'll probably keep reporting on my exploits for as long as I keep racing.

To me,bmx was,is and always will be rad as hell whatever the genre. I ride old school but rarely miss a National when it's in Manchester. The racing is well gnarly!

Thanks guys!

BMX is most definitely RAD. I don't have kids, so can continue being a big kid on a kid's bike!! Or rather, bikes!!   Tbh, I probably spend just as much time on a BMX now, be it riding, racing or at the skate park, as I did back in the heyday. When you factor in online BMX such as forums or just watching stuff on YouTube, I probably spend more time now. And I certainly appreciate it more now than I did then.

This Sunday's race in Osaka is looking a bit dodgy, weatherwise, but I'm off to see a bit of Rally Japan on Saturday, so am going to take my race bike and gear with me, so I can get in some pump track action in case the race is rained off. Just to cover my bmx bases.
