SATURDAY/DAY 1

Elite Men/AA Pro - 1 Bubba Harris 2 Donny Robinson 3 Jared Graves 4 Sam Willoughby 5 Randy Stumpfhauser 6 Cristian Becerine 7 Kyle Bennett 8 Arturs Matisons

 

Elite Men/AA Pro Race Recap - With 32 AA's racin', the comp was fast and furious. First Straight Pull from Arturs Matisons who motors in to Turn One, only to lose traction and hit the dirt bringing down Two Free Agent's, Cristian Becerine and Kyle Bennett who he had been battlin' for the lead. Both Free Agents go down while Bubba Harris hits the hole to take the lead with Donny Robinson and Jared Graves who give Bub a good chase but the Wiley One knows how to hold off a charge and brings home his first pro win in YEARS!

Donny Robinson seems to regularly be in the right place at the right time, like Saturday, when he came from the outside to be on yet another podium finish. Connor Fields took the Jr. Men's win and looked fast enough to run with ANYONE at the race. Connor's come back from a serious injury to shake up the BMX world. Alise Post (Left) and Dominique Daniels have battled each other many times in the ABA Girl Pro class, but with the ABA responsible for running the U.S. UCI points races, the classes have been aligned to the UCI system and they are racing in two separate classes, with Alise racing in Elite Women and Dominique in Jr. Women. Chalk up a win on Day 1 for both of them.

How cool was it to see former Redline Factory rider, Kim Hayashi take a break from working on her medical degree to make the trip to Reno and check out the race action. Kim's won tons of titles over the year and did pretty well for not being on the bike much. Randy Stumpfhauser kicked off his ABA #1 Pro Title Defense with an appearance in a TOUGH AA Pro/Elite Men's Final and probably (To him!) disappointing 5th place finish. "Bold Prediction Time" at BMX Mania........Randy WILL be a force to be reckoned with in 2010, cuz he's going REALLY fast right now! "Don't Call It A Farewell Tour" cuz he'll probably be in the hunt for the darn title again! Australian, Jared Graves (Right) showed up for Reno and promptly came out and impressed. Jared avoided the chaos in Turn One in the final and racked up a 3rd, while fellow Aussie, Sam Willoughby (Left) pulled in a 4th. Jared's one of the top of the top MTB 4X riders, world championships, big sponsorships, all that jazz, but he continues to make the occasional BMX race and when he does, he does it up right! 'Stay Strong' is in the house! Marco Dell'Isola (Right) is from England, runs 'Stay Strong' for fallen BMXer, Stephen Murray who was paralyzed in dirt jumping competition. Free Agent World Team Manager, Dale Holmes who's ridden with both of them was sendin' some LOVE! staystrongapparel.com MJT's, Jasen Krenek, shown here modeling the ABA's cool foto vests, sez that his is actually a P"Hot"o vest, cuz he's so hot, but we're not buying that one! He does shoot a nice lookin' BMX Race Photo, tho. Click for the centerfold shot and go to MJTdesigns.com for cool graphics & fotos.
