Twenty H made the trip to Spartanburg South Carolina this weekend for the ABA east coast Nationals. It was the debut race for new team members Cheyenne Aljier and Brandon Murphy along with Taylor Lance who was added Saturday morning. It was a good weekend for the team with almost everyone making their mains. Taylor and Brandon were the standouts. Unfortunately rain caused some of the old guys to pull out for Sundays race so our team sheet scores weren't that great. All in all a good weekend for the team though. See everyone in ATL.

News from the USAC Championship

Props go out to our very own Team Moto Filler Teammate, Stuart Harrison, for qualifying to represent the United States BMX team in the 30 + Men’s Challenge class at the World BMX Championships in Taiyuan, China, May 27 thru June 1, 2008. 

Unlike years past, the only way to qualify for the team that will represent the USA this year had to race there way on to it at the USA Cycling (USAC) National Championship held in Desoto, Texas last Saturday, March 29, 2008.  The top eight riders making the main at the US Championships automatically qualified to represent the USA at the World Championships, riders who made the main at this summers past World championship in Canada rounded out the qualified riders.  If any spots were still available up to 16 riders, then a rider could petition USA Cycling for a roster spot.

Stuart went on to finish 8th in the main but that was good enough, and remember at the USAC you race age class only against experts, novice, intermediate, etc…  At this time it is unclear if the domestic sanctions of the ABA and NBL will recognize the numbers earned by riders at the Championship as it was a USAC sanctioned event, but look for Stuart to be sporting # US 8 when the opportunity arises and that number is automatically reserved for him at next years USAC Championships.

Unfortunately, Stuart will not be making the trip to China.  With the Olympics in August the international schedule has been moved up this year and the Worlds are being help at least 6 weeks earlier than normal and there is not enough time to plan the trip, for someone who was not already planning on going.
