The BMP race team made a solid showing at the OMRA Awards banquet last weekend The BMP Husqvarna display Mark Johnson, GP 1st 50 expert, XC 2nd 50 Expert and Sportsman of the Year riding a TXC511 in 2012 and aboard a TXC310R in 2013 going for back to back to back #1s Nelson Lyon, GP 1st 50 Amateur riding a WR300 in 2012 and piloting a TXC310R in 2013. He got bumped from Am to Expert, so he's after his first Expert trophy, and Im sure Mark will be quite happy for Nelson to get it, as long as its for 2nd :-) Luke Bennett, XC 3rd 30 Amateur on a TE250 (when hes not in Baja on his CB500 project bike...check it out at ADV) And not present but also winners... Craig Stiff, GP 1st 60 Amateur Craig recently picked up a WR250, after years on a big bore. Greg King, XC 4th 30 Amateur, and also WR250 mounted for the second year.
I think you need to be laying on the couch on your side drinking your favorite beverage to view these pics correctley,Ipads and Kindles make the world look like this alot of times.
Yep, I had to go use the laptop to straighten it out.... And a big thanks to Bill for supporting the riders all year, Gold Sponsorship of the OMRA and the goodie bags BMP and Husqvarna provided for the trophy winners.
I gave it a try Bill, the heads were on the bottom, so I decided to try laying on the other end of the couch, but the dog wouldn't even negotiate . Looked like great results even still
Those first 2 guys, Mark and Nelson will now be in the same class. Nelson won 50Am and got bumped to 50Expert. BMP and Husqvarna lent a hand in making sure both of them are on 2013 TXC310Rs this year. The 50 Expert line keeps getting redder, now we need more of the youngsters to learn from the masters what leads experienced riders to choose Husqvarna and BMP.
Thank you Lonny for the write up, looks like 50 expert will be a fun challenge this year. Thank you Bill and Husqvarna for the awesome deal on the new bike!
I got drafted found my new OMRA. card hidden in a sticker envelope. on the counter.50 EXPERT I don't ride often enough to be expert at anything;but since only ride for fun it really doesn't matter what class I ride.
...and that makes ANOTHER Red bike on the 50 line. A couple years ago I was often the lone Husky on my 511 in the whole field, and now we about to become the majority in the class....wow! This wouldn't have happened without Bill and the BMP gang.
