Burdette BMX

Yeah I know- BMX is not MTB, but don't forget that the BMX folks have similar interests and love the dirt just like we do!

This thread is for updates or notifications about Burdette BMX Race Track, such as general schedules and if you happen to go out to practice or race.

man if i had a bmx bike i'd be all over it but my old bmx bike got stolen at college. Sounds like a blast though.

I may ask around and see if anyone i know has a spare i can borrow

I'm building up a redline I picked up from craigslist.... I'm picking up some parts and going to repaint it. Hope to have it up and running in a few weeks and you are welcome to borrow it... I've been keeping a close eye on c list as all kinds of kids get BMX'z for b days, realize they can't do any of the killer tricks right off the bat and sell them dirt cheap.

I can't do the tricks either but it's a good workout and is going to be a blast on a pump track-

I have some parts left over from when I was racing if you are needing anything.

Burdette is a great place to ride. I sure miss it.

Holy crap- Burdette's track is wicked cool-

i had a blast! I showed up at 730 on Wednesday and got riding. Gates are fun, the turns are fun, the rollers are fun, the tabletops are *explictive* wicked!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I guess Marshall went out as well but ate track in turn 1 a little before I showed up- And in honor of his foul, I launched off a tabletop and landed near the bottom of the landing ramp.

Now I have raddish butt. He has stitches. I'm going to suggest we form a team, called Team Extreme Injury.

Anyone new interested? As far as I know you don't have to race ever, but you can attend the practices and ride your little heart out. It's a very cool scene out there and I'm sad I didn't do this 10 years ago.

Calling Team Extreme Injury- Burdette 530-10 pm if people are still riding..... I'll be there for sure...

If you don't own a BMX you can rent a helmet and a bike for quite cheap.... You'll still need thave a trial membership $30 or go ahead for a full NBL membership at $50.... This allows you to race and or practice at any NBL track in the country.

I don't think I'll ever race- But I'll sure ride tracks... If you care to check it out call - Kyle

Calling Team Extreme Injury: I'll be out breaking my face at Burdette Wednesday 7.1.9 track opens for practice at 530pm till whenever people leave.
peace- Kyle
