Freestyle guys learned the lesson.
Take the money, don’t sell out.BMX does not “need” money.
But oh how I love to use that evil green garbage to make good things happen.
Oh yes indeed, how I do.If you like that new CJ track, that took almost 15 large to make.
With good men in charge who handled money correctly, the flow was there to make it happen.
Money is a means to an end, it is all in how you use it.Just

money is everything– anyone that tells you different is
A–lying
b– already richfact of the matter is– if wallmart was gonna give me big bucks to race thier NEXT bike for the remainder of the season, you bet your ass i would be all over it.
because i’m a greedy, self indulgent pig? well, maybe. but no, because this would allow me to ride non stop.
forget the 55 hour work weeks with an hour comute to and from everyday. forget doing side work at home till midnight, THEN training.forget waking up saturday morninig and wanting to ride, but your back is sore cause you had to replace 3 engines the day before. the money would be there and i get to do what i love.outside sponsorship (money) is good, its good for the riders-making hitting more races easier on the wallet, it’s good for the tracks– more racers means bigger moto counts, and it’s good for the sponsor– they get some decent advertising.

isn’t one of the tours for flatland and all the other aspects of freestyle bmx sponsred by Braun? isn’t that like a shaving company or something?
and look at redbull, they are everywhere with bmx. always at shields when there is a competion. hell they were two dvds called the redbull challenge or something like that for street riders.
i wouldn’t ride for the money though, i’d just ride for the love of riding my bike. but if i ever got paid, then i wouldn’t mind that either, but its not like i would sell out. besides, i think it would be easier if i had someone else paying for me to go to a contest in europe or something.
but i would never sell out.isn’t one of the tours for flatland and all the other aspects of freestyle bmx sponsred by Braun? isn’t that like a shaving company or something?
