Allright Riders ...

So, here we are ... 3 months after having our very first meeting ... with a rideable track, drain tile installed, some well-deserved and hard earned (thanks for your dilligence, John) political support, a cool open house in the books ... and now, the newest acquisition, a pretty doggone cool second-hand gate (the tread lightly sustainable types will be sure to appreciate this).

Milwaukee BMX is the real deal. Having been pretty close to all of this ... I know that there were very few things that we accomplished in the last 90 days that were easy. But thanks mostly to John Mittelstadt, Dana Mittelstadt, Michelle Mittelstadt, Fred Yanke, Mike Froh, Bryan Dickerson, Todd Zimmerman, Jay Labecki and Russell Jobs, the future of Bicycle Motocross Racing in Milwaukee looks pretty doggone bright. Gotta' also thank Craig from Pro Electric for the many hours he has allowed us to put on his Skid Loader. Finally, Bob Bruns from Kettering BMX and Dayton BMX in Ohio (hey Bob ... what on earth is a "Buckeye" anyway? -- believe it or not, it's a chesnut ... yeah, I'm real glad my forefathers at the University of Wisconsin were wise enough to choose a ferocious little animal as a nickname and mascot over a freakin' seed !!!) for helping out with that gate. We are truly blessed to have received the continued support and physical help from all of the people above.

To help us plan next steps, all who are interested are invited to meet tomorrow night, Wednesday - September 20 at 7 p.m. at Benno's on Greenfield Avenue (7413 w.) in West Allis east of State Fair Park.

Looking Good ...

A small group of the hardcore volunteers who will be racing through the winter at Walworth BMX will be sporting the jerseys below. We'll have tee-shirts soon as well. The jerseys are Fly 303 and Ray Hudson gets props for helping out our startup promotional effort. If you catch somebody at the track wearing one of these shirts ... and you dig Milwaukee BMX ... show 'em some love ... these guys are the reason Milwaukee BMX happened and is becoming real.



That's it for now ... keep ridin'
