St. Patrick’s Day Parade Update!

It’s getting close to parade time again!  Just want to remind everyone that OmahaBMX will be involved in the Omaha St. Pat’s parade. It will be Saturday March 13th.  Everyone is welcome to come out and ride your bike or walk along. Everyone had a great time last year. I will post the time and location of our spot once it has been assigned. Looking forward to seeing everyone!

We have been assigned to block I which is on Jones St. Between 15th and 16th. Arrival time is 10 Am.  Please arrive a little early if possible.  Donuts will be available while supplies last. 

There is also an after Parade Party starts around 12:00PM and will conclude at 4:00PM (hosted by the St. Pat’s parade committee)
$5.00 per person entry fee
They will be serving a wonderful Irish Stew and Hot Dogs, along with Pop, water and Beer to wash it down.
Entertainment will be provided by the Croai na Tire Dancers, Brennan Irish Dancers and the Turfman from 12:30-3:00pm (Party to be held at Nomads on 10th and Jones)

I just received a letter in the mail today from the ABA, for track operators, stating that the ABA will use the “Random Gate” for all classes at all Nationals in 2011. This does not apply to local tracks, but if we want to start using that system in 2011, we can upgrade our existing system and purchase a 4 lights system from Cartessa.

Anyone interested in helping OmahaBMX raise the funds to make this switch for the 2011 season, please step up!

On the left, a more tame, though way-technical-looking amateur lap, totaling 1163 feet. See below for the actual obstacle distances speced out by track builder extraordinare, …..
