Stephanie Barragan made a
strong showing in the Elite Women's Final, with Canada's,
Kaila Sweeney RIGHT in the mix scoring a big 2nd place. |
Bubba Harris (Right),
started the main, in 6th place, & worked his way up to 3rd
here in turn 2. Ck out how Bubba's 'eyeing' Herman and
Caluag, getting ready to pick em off. He did. Chalk up a BIG
1st for Bub. |
Logan Collins went from
winning Jr. Men last night, to getting BLASTED by Harrison
Britt, here. Kris Fox just misses Logan's bike, but Harrison
hit him hard and went down himself. Nothing broken though,
hang in there Logan. |

Cim Sjolander, from Sweden
was racing in the Elite Women's class. Cim and several other
Euro's were making the Spring Break tour, training hard for
the Euro Championships in May. Probably just having fun in
the sun, but the training thing SOUNDS nice, huh? :-) |

Smile, Amanda! A. Geving is from
Florida and looks from here like she's happy to be at home! |
Tyler Brown looks more and more like
he's ridin' full on Supercross BMX Factory. |
SE Racing's, Javier Colombo was
absolutely stylin' in his new SE jersey, fresh out for 2008. |
Phantom / Intense / On Trac's Jake
Trevino was in town and lookin' good in Junior Men. Jake was shakin'
out a 4th for the day. |
Kyle Weisenberger is back on the
bike and training. Kyle is one of the most stylish fast guys on the
track. |
BMX Mania Little Known Fact Of
Science ... Nate Berkheimer, besides doin' it up for Dback is now
the BMX Race Rep for UGP. |
Jason Richardson has been without a
banner sponsor, but now has the hookup with Race Place BMX Dot Com, Las
Vegas's online BMX parts site. |
Ever want to be right in
the middle of a Starting Gate full of Elite Riders to Feel The Fury?

Go211.com was on the scene, and
Brian Fell is shown here, interviewing Bawls Factory Rider, Rachel
Smith. Rachel was OUT FRONT her first two motos, lookin' VERY fast! |
Suarez.....'The
Mosquito' was OTG (On The Gas!) After Mikey Day and Donny got balled
up in Turn 2, Skeeter was 'flyin low' UNTIL, Mr. Smooth, Kyle
Bennett, slashed thru the last turn, MOTO'd the last straight to
take the win. |
Speaking of new jerseys, Matt
Pohlkamp was sportin' the '08 Kuwahara threads. Nice lookin' Blast
From The East, with cool colors and graphics to match. |
Denzel Stein is the Real Deal, he's
ruling the Junior Men's class right now in the U.S. It'll be fun to
see if he can repeat at the UCI Worlds. It'd be hard to bet against
him! |

4 Here're some ladies that were flyin' low,
on Friday at the UCI Points Race. 1 - Kim Hayashi has been
jugglin' university and BMX, but in Florida, she had some HOT laps,
out front, in the lead. ... 2 - Arielle Martin has been
training at the US Olympic Center and it showed. ... 3 - Stephanie
Barragan just got picked up by RacePlaceBMX.com, and had her First
Straight Dialed IN! ... 4 - Liyun Ma. OK, people have been saying
"The Chinese are going to come on strong since they have an Olympic
BMX Team, and Liyun Ma is proof positive. Here she leads the Czech
Republic's, Aneta Hladikova and Team USA's, Jill Kintner. |

Still on the come back from a
devastating injury in Beijing last August, Bubba Harris made a
couple of his patented 'come from behind' passes in the last
straight. |
