Just a note to let all my friends know that after 23 years I have officially come out of retirement! I raced BMX last weekend here in Topeka, Kansas. I could still ride, although not like I used too! I didn't crash (I didn't really jump any jumps -- just rode over them, but I had a blast -- Took 3rd place in my first race back).

Just wondering how many of you used to race BMX????

I'll get some pics at the next race, I did attach one of me in 1983 at the Grand Nationals in Tulsa. I took 3rd place at the event. I'm the one in first in the picture in the red, white, and blue -- at the time I was co-sponsered by a bike company called Hutch, out of business now.

Looks like the picture is too small to see.
