I'm headed back to Nova bmx for some clinic action before the battlefield nationals!!!

Novice riders, I have a basic skills handbook that will be given to all participants in sundays novice clinic. It explains all the basic skills we will go over in the clinic plus give tips advice with drills on and off the track to continue to master those skills.

I also have an advanced clinic on Tuesday the 7th to follow up on the program we began from summer camp.

In twenty years, it won't matter if they were the fastest rider in their class or if they rode for a factory team. It wont matter what place they finished or if they had the biggest trophy collection.

It won't matter if they recieved a rider spotlight in pull magazine or ever won NAG 1.

It won't matter if they made every main, maxed their points, and took home all the possible jackets one could win in a season.

Don't get me wrong, I'm my kids' biggest fan.

I LOVE watching them in all of their activities. I'm proud and honored to get to do so. And yes, we're a family who likes to win (and I think that's okay!)

But sometimes, it's easy to lose sight of the fact that so much of this BMX-parent season is temporary. We get caught up in the competitiveness of wanting our kid to be the best, when really it's kind of insignificant in the bigger picture of their lives.

In twenty years, the things that WILL matter are the other skills our kids are learning during their time the sport.

The skills they'll only learn if we put our parent egos aside and have fewer conversations about points and more conversations about things likeβ€”

Discipline.
Hard work.
Accountability.
Self resilience.
Mental fortitude.
Being a good sport even when things don't go their way.

Right now, BMX is such a big part of our world.

From the outside it seems like our kids are working on things like proper technique and fundamentals of the sport and that's part of it, sure.

But really, this is an even bigger chance for them to learn lessons about life.

And when they've hung up their helmet for the very last time, I hope to walk into the next season of life knowing we haven't just raised accomplished athletes, we've raised incredible humans.

I copied this from a parenting page I follow and reworded it to fit BMX. It easy to lose sight of why we started this sport and whats really going on. This is just a friendly reminder to prioritize maxing out the fun over maxing out points, collecting memories over collecting trophies, winning the day instead of winning the race. Prioritize these things first and the race wins, points, and trophies will come in time.

I began racing in 1989. The only thing that I have carried with me all these years were the memories made and lessons I've learned. I've always enjoyed coaching and sharing knowledge with the riders. This one is for the parents. I will be first to admit, I had to learn this the hard way. There's more to BMX than the win, even if its all your kid wants. Its your job to teach them there is so much more to learn.

New ride came together just in time. Thank you CycleCraft BMX for a sweet frame. Proud to represent an American made frame at world championships this week!!! Also thank you to Carbone Cartel BMX for a killer set of wheels and forks. Thwy are as good as advertised. Incant wait to race them. Another huge thank you to Power Cycles Bmx for getting them together in a hurry. Not a lot of people know what Will and his crew goes through to make sure our riders have what they need on race day, but he always comes through. So thankful for Will and his crew

More thank yous go to the Gonzales family for donating towards my entry fee and my uci license. Without them I would not be here this week. Thank you Marissa Gonzalez and George Gonzalez. Much love to your family and Good luck to Nora this week also!!!

Thank you to St Cloud Bmx Bmx for donating toward my trip and the support I have always received from the track volunteers and locals who support my coaching program

One of my biggest thank yous has to go to my Fox Hunt Racing family. The parents and kids that make up our group have supported me and everything we have done like family. The mental game is strong because of the support of our family. This year the team came together because of 4 parents who made up a board and organized our team. We became a non profit and totally changed the direction of our program. I couldn't be more grateful for the effort our group has made this year. Thank you fam!!!

Special thank yous to Daytona BMX where I run weekly coaching programs since I became a coach. The support from local familes at Daytona BMX is amazing. Also special thank yous to Orlbmx and Ancient City BMX Saint Augustine for support of allowing me to connect with locals and run weekly clinics. The RaceInc Florida team for allowing me to coach their team and to be treated like family each time I see a race Inc rider πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™ special thanks also toFx Racing who was so patient with us while we figured out wanted our new team uniforms to look like. Many of mock ups but so thankful they were so patient with us. Also thanks to Helium Racing for always picking up the phine when I have a mechanical question or idea and the support of Mom's Talk BMX in Florida!!! I'm sure I'll edit this and add someone I have forgotten but know that I am thankful for all the support I have recieved and everyone that will be cheering me and the rest of Team USA.
