PULL Magazine|June 2017

Rolling into Rum River BMX for the Land O Lakes National has a crisp and organized presence about it.

Well placed signage for parking, and ample friendly volunteers happy to hand you a goodie bag as they assist you finding your home base for the weekend. Paved bike paths and a full-on skate/scooter/ bike park directly adjacent to the racing facility only adds to the value (from the kids’ perspective of course) of racing here during the cooperating months of the year. May in Minnesota has its variables, but all would agree the weather that was dialed in for the event was borderline perfection… again, for May in Minnesota where snow shovels and sunscreen are always on stand-by.

The brave balance bikes kicked off the racing action on Saturday, providing an entertaining start to the day. While there were riders hyper focused on the finish line, we also had some mini BMXers stopping for a photo op, or to simply scan the crowd and take it all in. Regardless the race outcome, this group collectively brings a “balance” of what is truly important at an event such as this. Hometown racer Deklan Carr of Isanti, MN grabbed the top spot in the 5 & Over main, while Blake Geschwill of Coon Rapids, MN crossed the line first in the 1-2 year old class. Three states were represented during the main events, and considering some of the riders recently just learned to walk, we can all be very proud of the fun they are having.

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.
