After reading all these back and forth posts – I think its time for a new track in North Jersey. We’ll call it “Veteran’s BMX Track”. 😉
Seriously – I went to EHT – and all those jumps wore me out and its a haul down there for me. I haven’t been to CJ yet – but everyone has me scared of the monster. Now I hear about the quarry dust and 20 motos at HC.
So I am supposed to just accept this?
I would love it if EHT were closer – and after all I’m reading – it might become my home track – and I have relatives on the way that can babysit the kids – so it kind of works out.
But, there has to be compromise here – Rich wants to invest in his home track – but thinks there should be changes. He raced in California where BMX still thrives – so, DUH! he might just have some good input. But – on the flip side – you are not necessarily gonna change everything right away just because he has the cash. Still – if you are only getting 20 motos there – what is the plan to get more????????????? Something has to give.
So – everyone first please kiss and make up – I want NJ BMX to thrive and grow – and to be honest – if we all have this much angst in our tanks – then we have the energy to effect positive evolution and GROWTH.
Bill – I think ya need to let Rich’s idea’s sink in a little. Poll your regulars – get their input. Whatever it takes. The three tracks we have are all long standing tradition rich tracks that should be pulling more than 20 motos. It may take a few years – but if we invest now – we can re-grow this thing we all love.
Thank you and good night.
