All good things come to an end and today we had a farewell luncheon to celebrate 9 years of trying to to set a very high standard on the local and National BMX scene. Yes I’ve made the difficult decision not to continue with the team next year as I cannot commit to attending all of the bigger races and offering 100% support to our team. It’s been an awesome journey riding the highs and lows with the entire team including Jayden’s world plate this year, many A plates, State plates, State rider of the year awards and corporate team trophy wins. Our team has been my BMX family, we’ve had each other’s back no matter what and I have no doubt that we will all be friends for life! It’s the end of a very enjoyable era however I look forward to watching their future BMX journeys.
Huge thanks to my wife Kath for her great support today and throughout my racing days, our coach the one and only “Big Dog” Brayden for his efforts, Tyson, Greg, Nash, Damo P and Ben for their advice, Damo and Mell for opening up the track, Cross Keys for looking after me as a life member in recent times and providing the track for training, the Mains for always helping with the tent and more and the whole team for their contribution. To our past and present riders thank you for your amazing efforts and representing all of our sponsors with distinction. Special thanks to our very valued sponsors Manoel Carpentry, JPC Johns Print Centre ( get well soon Reedy) Shield Insurance Brokers, SA Pipe Relining, Pave Cafe and LFB Luke’s Fitness Bootcamp and past sponsors Rick Cobby Transport, Jim’s Asbestos Removals, MTS Accountants, Bob Janes Modbury for allowing us to chase our BMX dreams. Also big shout out to Emmsee Clothing and Seal Custom BMX plates for looking after us often with tight timelines and coming up trumps every time!
Its been a pleasure writing detailed team wraps over the years but you will see me at the track for a few races next year maybe even on the mic.
I hope our teams legacy will be, train hard, prepare well physically and mentally and always give 110% with true class and sportsmanship!
Ride on peeps, yours in BMX, JC BMXTRM Racing🍻🏁
