2. Minimum of 16 riders

This is a great way to get tuned up for The Great Salt Lake National!

If you are interested please email rjmelton@kw.com ASAP

Rad Canyon BMX Gets Paved and BMXers Get Paid!

Rad Canyon BMX has been home to the ABA Great Salt Lake Nationals for over 10 years and for 2008 the Rad Canyon crew has stepped up their program yet again! One of the premier facilities in the country, Rad Canyon is always looking for ways to improve itself.

For 2008 look for a fresh coat of asphalt in turns #1 and #2 which will greatly enhance the speed and flow of the world-class track. The asphalt turns will lend to the already fast and challenging track that will serve as the proving ground for the worlds fastest BMX'ers during the ABA Pro Series event.

Along with the new track improvements the Rad Canyon crew would like to help out those who make the trek out to Utah. In cooperation with Maverick Country Stores and Rad Canyon BMX there will be over $500.00 in cash cards and prizes handed out during the 50/50 drawings over the course of the weekend.

It is just a little something to say "Thank you!" to all of the wonderful BMX families who support the sport of BMX and attend the 2008 ABA Great Salt Lake Nationals July 25th-27th.

RAD Canyon BMX Email Updates

I just wanted to apologize for the issues over the last few weeks with RAD Canyon BMX's email updates. I've tried every trick I know (and a few I found) to get it right, but it still only wants to email about half of our registered users. I really believe at this point it's a host server issue, so I just need to program a workaround.

I have a plan of what I believe will solve the issue, and will attempt to finish up the programming over the next few days. My goal is to have it finished by this weekend, before next weeks update. Please know that you may see a test email or two as I debug the program.

Thank you for your continued support!
