The weekend’s racing was intense with action packed motos, quarters, semis and mains.
Nine years ago, is when my new journey began. That is when the Great Northwest Nationals first came to Redmond, Oregon. Back then, I (Dan) was working for USA BMX, shooting photos and helping Cheryl Bustamante layout the BMXer (PULL) Magazine. Never thought, one day I would be living in a town where BMX brought me to. Even though Redmond is a small town, (26,000 people) it’s home to many BMXers along with a beautiful local track not far from the Deschute County Fair and Expo Arena. The first race here brought close to 150 motos. This year, with the help of the World Qualifiers, it brought a whopping 261 motos. This was the biggest race in GNW history.
This ‘M’ shaped track was like years’ past except for the more technical rhythm section. The first straight was also a bit different with the first jump being a step up-step down. This track was fast and riders like Tyler Brown, Marquise Montgomery, Robby Patterson and Matt Baisley made it look easy! Maybe a little too fast for Montgomery while he had a little mishap over the last jump in the mains Sunday. Knowing him, he will be back on his bike in no time!

GOLD CUP NORTH CENTRAL
If there is one good thing about this year’s Covid closures of states and counties, it is that tracks that might not normally have gotten a shot at hosting a National or Gold Cup event, were now given that opportunity.

GOLD CUP SOUTHEAST
This year the DK Bicycles Gold Cup South East Finals were held at one of the fastest BMX tracks in Alabama - Circle City BMX, in Dothan. If trying to claim one of the coveted Gold Cup Plates brought you to Circle City BMX for your first time you might have been surprised when you first saw the track layout.
GOLD CUP SOUTHWEST
When you roll into the local Quiktrip and one of Tucson’s finest looks at your shirt and asks if you know Corben Sharrah, you can only be in one city in America. Often coined as the loudest city in BMX, it doesn’t matter if there is a single fan or a gaggle of Tucsonans, they know how to bring the energy.
GOLD CUP NORTHEAST
With all of the uncertainty in event planning this year, it was not a huge surprise that the DK Bicycles North East Gold Cup Finals shifted locations somewhat last minute. We were very lucky to have it and at a great location, Akron BMX in Akron, Ohio. The Big Red Truck was last here for the 2018 North East Gold Cup Finals, and the track is located in a pretty incredible location.
