We would also like to invite anyone with some old school Bmx to just come hang out. Maybe get all the old school bikes in one area and show them off.

Saturday, July 28, 2012..
Time to dust off the old bikes and get them back out to the track! The 1st Annual O.G. Race will be held this year at Heartland BMX! This should be a fun race to watch! If you think the kids get after it - wait until you see these guys! They are pulling up in a minivans with a "kid on board" sign in the back window and baby carriers in both hands - they have something to prove!!

So if you think you still have it (and your wife gives you permission!) and over 30 and then head out the weekend of July 27th to show off those O.G. Skills!!

Also everybody is welcome to show their old bikes, We can make a spot to put them together for a show kinda feel. Also if you have anything to sell. Bring it. There will be plenty of people there to look and buy things.

This sounds like a cool event, I hope I can make it.

bubbletop1961 · 2012-07-11 8:16pm

I plan on racing my white 1989 TNT in the OG race and the newer TNT the rest of the weekend. Let see what everybody is bringing out!

1979 Diamondback · 2012-07-11 8:53pm

I'm going to have to renew my USA BMX membership! I'm planning on racing my '80 Schwinn Sting. I'm also putting together an '83 T/A for my son to race a few motos on that weekend.

d.rigadee · 2012-07-12 11:27am

I will be there. Not sure if I will try to ride an 80's freestyle Predator, or one of my retro SE bikes.

C'mon on out, y'all! It will be a great full day of racing and hanging with BMX people!

EOJIG · 2012-07-12 12:44pm

Going to barrow JP 88 Freeagent LIMO with the 1989 ROC 1 plate on it

getset · 2012-07-12 2:26pm

d.rigadee · 2012-07-15 8:44am

C'mon everybody! Here is a chance to actually ride a bike, not just sit around and and polish one!

XJguy · 2012-07-15 8:47am

bubbletop1961 · 2012-07-22 8:23pm

Any others coming? Lets see some of the bikes and gear coming out this weekend.

getset · 2012-07-26 4:00pm

It would be cool to have some of the KC crew come out for this. BTW what time does the racing start on Saturday?

Sign-in are 5:30-7:00 for a Warnicke double point race that day. The O.G. Shoot Out follows the regular racing. I'm going to bring a selection of old school bikes and put them on display. There isn't a show per se, but I'm sure an impromptu showing of old/mid school stuff would be welcomed.

bubbletop1961 · 2012-07-27 9:10pm

If you havent been to the track in Topeka in a while, Come check it out. Lots of shade for an evening race. Going to be a good team battle between the Gunslingers and Factory Skidmark. They have been working hard on the track. The rented a roller and rolled the entire track. It was fast tonight. The best it has looked in a long while. I hope to see alot of people and ALOT of old/middle school bikes tomorow night.

RadDad · 2012-07-27 9:32pm

Now this is cool, gonna hit up some of the TO's here to let us do this. At least when I lose it will be stylin!

1979 Diamondback · 2012-07-28 10:53pm

I'm trying to get some video of the main to post up. The event was won by Joey "The Outlaw" Brown on my 1979 Diamondback Pro. He had tons of style! Jumped every double there was in the first 2 straights. There were only 3 threadless bikes in the event. A Schwinn Pro Stock, an 09 Retro Quad, and a modern Gunslinger cruiser. The other bike brands represented were TNT, Free Agent, Schwinn, Diamondback, and Boss. It was too cool to see those bikes gettin' it around the track.

bubbletop1961 · 2012-07-29 7:49pm

Cant wait to see the videos! Dont forget about Kellys mid 80's Kuwi. That was awesome! What a fun event. The flag parade was for the OG riders only, That was coool to see all of them in a flag parade before the race started. Then in the main we rolled out as they introduced use and the bikes we were on. I cant wait for nexts years event. And the shirt trophys were great!

bubbletop1961 · 2012-07-29 8:00pm

Here is a pic of one of the guys SQUEZZING into his free agent jersey from when he was a kid. Also the winning 79 DB that the Outlaw rode.

Here is the front of the shirts for 1st-3rd

Here is the back of the 3rd place shirt I got on my 89 TNT i raced.

Yeah, the Kuwahara. It was Kelly (wdesign)'s 1983 Kuwi Nova. That was his original race bike. Still has it.

bubbletop1961 · 2012-07-29 8:18pm
