My little brother lives just outside San Fransisco and works as a Computer Analyst at Stamford University. Two years ago he took up BMXing again after a 12-15 year break, and despite never having ridden competitively (our Old Man was having none of it!) before he started racing. Here's how it went:
I am delighted to announce that at the grand old age of 34, I am the
new BMX racing California State Champion in the 17 and over Rookie
class!
After months of sacrificing late nights so I could race and train, it
all paid off a few weeks ago at the State Championship race.
My BMX dream has been fullfilled and my conscience is clear. No more
sleepless nights.
Please take a look at my photo album I have created to mark this
monumental event:
