Race Night Coverage
Posted by Prashant - 16/09/09 at 08:09:38 amLast Friday’s Capital BMX race night was a success. Lots of riders showed, and the track probably saw the most amount of pegs it has ever seen. Jamie and Jeff had the BBQ going, and Rich did all the organization leg work to make sure everyone was racing and having a good time. In the end we raised over $200 to go towards new ramps at the Orleans Park. It’s a good starting amount, and hopefully we can get a couple more events like these under our belts before the snow hits for the year. Big thanks once again to Rich for all the work he put in to this, and everyone that showed up and supported it.
Ben Kaufman was on hand with his dad cam and shot and edited this video of the night, as well as took a few photos that you can click below to see.

Jorden wasn’t the only one who didnt finish that night, we went to the bar after and Brandon left early even though there was a girl all over him. Celibate life! Chastity!
