Top BMX Bikes, What I Liked About Freestyle Riding to the Olympics!

Sat, 17 Sep 2011 05:55:48 -0600

BMX started in the early 1970s when kids began racing their bicycles on dirt tracks in Southern California on modified Schwinn Sting-Ray bikes. The size and availability of the Schwinn Sting-Ray made it the bike of choice since they were easily customized for better handling and performance. In 1982, the BMX was given the boost into mainstream culture when they were given the footage in E.T.: the Extra-Terrestrial. As the popularity of BMX grew, more and more riders went looking beyond riding and racing and some take the BMX to the extremes. Riders began to merge skateboard park riding with more elaborate tricks and soon freestyle was as popular as racing. Another boost for the sports took off in 1995 when ESPN hosted the first Extreme Games (became the X Games in 1996) in Rhode Island. The X Games provided an Olympic-like forum for a new generation of athletes and greater exposure for BMX. Opportunities opened up for BMX riders that they couldn't have previously imagined. Being a BMX rider has became of age now as a legitimate career for many opening the door for lucrative endorsement and television deals.

Top Road Bikes, What I Liked About Fast Race Type Rides!

Top Running Gear, What I Liked About Planned Seasonal Change!

Sun, 14 Aug 2011 08:53:49 -0600

When you first get started with running, normally so for your health and fitness, there is no need for the rush to get or buy fancy running clothing or what-have-you. Best is just the same attire you are most comfortable in that you would workout in. If you are running by the beach, be more attuned to beach wear; in an urban setting, just light enough for you to pack them in a duffel that you are carrying to the gym or office; if you are running in the park, be prepared for uneven grounds, hanging branches and the piece or two of dry twigs lying across your running path. Go by the season. Be careful not to overdress but don't be caught under-dressed either. The season you are in and the locale of your run will probably be the best judge to what you are going to wear. Be lightly dressed is the word here, but then again, always be prepared for the unexpected...

The 20 inch diameter wheels are there for several reasons, including: they are suitable for young and small riders; the size makes them stronger to withstand the additional loads (as generated by BMX jumps and stunts); and the wheels requires less rotational inertia for easier wheel acceleration.
