Australia has 2009 World champs

[inlina]

Congrats to all riders who rode at the Worlds; plate winners or not!! Sams  win a highlight for the meeting.  Just one thing if someone knows ...how come Woowoo came back from Adelaide with a raceplate with 2008 world titles on it? ???Was this only for the younger kids or did the elite\older riders get them too?

They screwed up the printing on most, if not all, of the small size plates. The elite and cruiser plates were apparently correct, but they forgot to correct the year on the small size plates when they recycled most of last years artwork for the plates.

a kid in my club (16yr boys) returned home in and raced with a cruiser plate....and he told me a sprocket in our club got a 2008 plate with the Taiuyan China on it?

Just want to say thanks to everyone who made this week possible,

It was a week of racing that myself and my  family will never forget.

From those brave young tackers( 7YR OLD) jumping the first jump

to KYs semi final,and everything in between you just had to be there

One thing did get me though, why was the open ceromony yesterday??

Redman is a living legend, was great to have a chat with him again after 27 yrs

Im jelous of bushy and the rest of the guys who got to race big daddy Eric Rupe.

I blew my chance in the qtrs

And last of all it was great to catch up with all the forum members and lurkers.

Im sure I will have plenty more to add after driving home tomorrow

[go for it]

Hey guys the plate thing sucks, for most participants it is the only momento they get the least the organisers could do is make it correct.
Well done to all the riders .

Second the motion!!! But I am not holding my breath for the right thing to be done...our governing body is not known for its attitude for doing the right thing!

I agree with you about the plates for the young kids with the wrong stickers on them and the southern cross back to front on the sleeve, whats the chances of a replacement???
All in all what mad week of BMX we were going to take the next month off, not likely the kids are pumped after riding the worlds.

Did anybody else see Joey Bradfords entry in the bike throwing competition.  Pretty ordinary!
