Tampa, Florida BMX

YJ3E7583



Just got back from the ABA Gator Nationals in Tampa, Florida. Shannon Troglia drove the Haro rig out to FL and Cisar and I met up with him on Thursday. We stayed in a Best Western right on Clearwater Beach so there was no complaints from us, other than being woke up at 2am by loud ass party people on Saturday night.  The race went well, the AA Pro class had 43 entries trying to qualify for 8 main event spots. Steven had a rough weekend, some good laps but couldn't make it out of semi finals. Me? I rode like a true office guy and didn't make the cut. I felt pretty good and am happy to get to race, though. Even more happy that I'm seeing more and more Race LT frames at every event I'm at. I have heard nothing but positive feedback about the frame which is always nice to hear. The Morphine Industries team was in Florida and looked pro. They are running the Haro Race LT frames and we are happy to have them on board. Shannon, our truck driver, finished 4th in his class on Sunday after a big crash on Saturday after he bonked a roller and went over the bars which couldn't have looked more ridiculous. Glad he's alright though.

Our next event is in two weeks in Phoenix, AZ. The whole team will be there along with Cory Nastazio, good times to come!
