It’s been ten years since a Dutch rider has earned the No.1 European title. Back in 1999, the No.1 Euro plate was held by a young, moppy-headed BMXer named ROBERT deWILDE. And now, exactly one decade later, a rider from Holland has brought home the No.1 European Championship title to their country.

Hey Everyone,
Right now, there is a facility at Grippen Park, just outsie of Binghamton, NY that is being developed for an indoor BMX track. The facility will be ideal for serving the BMX population of New York, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Connecticut and beyond. The problem is, the local government is dragging its feet in getting the final touches on the building completed. And, until the building is completed, the dirt cannot be brought in, and the track cannot be built.
So, if you are from the Northeast, or even if you’re not, please email the following individuals at the following addresses, requesting information as to the date of the completion of the facility.
Ed Hart at EHart@co.broome.ny.us
Pat Brennan at pbrennan@co.broome.ny.us
Broome County Parks Dept. at bcparks@co.broome.ny.us
And, if you’re really ambitious, feel free to give them a call at 607-778-2193.
Thank You

As always, the Stars ‘n’ Stripes National at Southpark in Pittsburgh, PA was a thriller. Riders from throughout the country came to tackle the challenge on one of the fastest and most technical tracks in the country.
In addition to being hosted on one of the craziest tracks, this weekend’s racing played host to an NBL Elite Series stop. This meant a lot of great racing action mixed with the thrills of the big spills that South Park provides.

Hilliard, OH, (June 12, 2009) Steve Doan, Chairman of the NBL Bylaws Committee, and the NBL Board of Directors, is excited to announce the passage of revised Bylaws at the last board of directors meeting. These Bylaw revisions are a direct result of this years spirited Competition Congress and are a major step toward furthering the democratic principles and openness of the NBL the only not-for-profit BMX sanctioning organization.
Steve Doan would like to recognize the hard work and dedication of the committee members, Paul Kincheloe, Darol Carr, Betty Mulligan and Connie Shepler. The committee meetings were frank, open and sometimes spirited but in the end all found common ground. The committees proposed changes were reviewed by the entire NBL Board of Directors over the last month. During the June 11 board meeting, some changes were recommended by board members that were incorporated into the final revisions. Between the work of the committees, the entire board of directors and NBL staff, these Bylaw revisions, along with other recently announced changes, show the NBL has heard its members concerns and are making substantive responsive changes.
These changes, more then anything else, demonstrate what differentiates the NBL from all other BMX sanctioning organizations – the NBL is everyones organization and is committed to its members and riders. This is an exciting time to be a rider, parent, or a volunteer in the NBL
The newly energized Board of Directors continues to develop new initiatives and vision for the future of NBL and BMX and welcomes further involvement by all its members.
