Mikko,

What bike classes this year? Rat Bike?

Will Steef take coupons?

I'd pay $6 for a picture with the pirate, $12 for one with the pirate, ninja, & cowboy.

You know i'm gonna be there! Unless some terrible thing happens, which it won't. I love weenies, I mean hot dogs! and the flyer looks AWESOME!!!!

Hey Ditch!

Here are the classes:
Best 70's BMX
Best 80's BMX
Best Freestyle
Best Cruiser
Best Rat
Footdown
Bunnyhop
Skid

This year we're NOT moving the BBQ if it rains. We'll hope for great weather (the past 2 years have been PERFECT the weekend after Labor Day) but come prepared.

The old ramp from 2005 was dismantled last Tuesday and we built a wedge out of the lumber. We'll have that along too!

The BBQ is totally free, but donations are always welcome! Your donation have helped with permits, printing, stickers, awards and hosting the Faction website. Every dollar donated goes right into the next event!

I have to talk to Steef about the fees for the pics, his rates change constantly.

hey your supposed to be cleaning your kitchen, then going grocery shopping mister. That's what you said to me on the phone dude!

Just got back!

Mike says its free, but honestly, it's not. He works hard on this and then loses money to boot. It doesn't help when I give away his Freestlyin' stickers either (we won't repeat that mistake this year...) Everybody better plan to flip at least $5 or $10 into the collection pot. Don't make me beat you with my grill tools!

"Don't make me beat you with my grill tools!" retroBMX.

Some people may like that Paul. Bt yeah come on out support BMX and be generous with the donations.
were not saying if you dont tip the staff dont come. we want all of the Minnesota and north western Wisconsin BMX'ers to come, have fun and rock hard.
Mike busts his hump for this event!

Don't forget the sposors have graciously donated product.

Aw man, I just do it because I love this stuff as much as you guys! BMX was and is who I am whether I like it or not. The friends I met through BMX are so cool. Is it in the water?
And the BBQ is for ANYONE into BMX, bikes, riding, crashing, whatever.
A HUGE thank you to all the sponsors this year, we still have a couple aces up our sleeve. Top secret sponsors that we're still in negotiations with...
What I want to know is:
Will KOP show up to jump some cars?
Has DITCH really been scouting out the area on the weekends to find new riding spots?
WHO will spend all week detailing thier BMW only to roll up in a Suburban to keep his street cred?
Is Warren DiMartini REALLY going to show up on a Tahoe?
Is Ted Carl really the current high bidder on WHITESNAKES touring coach from '87 and plans on driving it to the BBQ?
Willinois roadtripping with Kast?
Is Kast cutting the sleeves off his "Aces High" t-shirt just to keep his street cred?
Will Apold really kick an apple off the top of your head for $1?
Will the Beaver Retiever show up for burnouts in the parking lot?
What is the deal with the Hobos?
Rodley. Enough said.
Is Conley showing up to "keep some people in line"?
Springer will be there....
Strike!!!!
Smithers, Peter the cat and WDS, the OG Factionites...
Boecker will be signing autographs.
JT will be pedalpickering like nobodies business
Miland will roll up in "the van"
And that is only half the crew!

This year is going to be great!

Of course thats why you do it mike. Thats why i got involved, WE all love bmx but we should support grass roots bmx as well. even if it's bringing a pack or two of our favorite brats to share.

Hang on...haaaaang on MIKE...
I've got your LITE beer right here....almost...<pop>....there ya go....
