BMX Weekly podcast with Paul Roberts. We kick things off talking about BMX magazines, then get into some mid-’80s talk, including rider Solan Foster and the ’80s Huffy team Mike King, Brent Romero, and Gary Ellis. We also touch on the 1985 IBMXF Whistler Worlds, some terrible TV announcers, and the irritating fake Brad Simms on Facebook.

From there, we reflect on the sad news of UGP’s Ronnie Bonner passing. We share our first memories of meeting Ronnie back in 1990 when we came over to the University of BMX training camp in Orlando. It was the first time we connected with Ronnie and UGP. It was a real honour to represent them, and we talked about how big UGP became in Europe during the ’90s. Great memories, great times.

We then move on to remembering two of our old friends, Rob Indri and Winston “Winnie” Wright. It’s hard to believe it’s been over 25 years. Paul and I both grew up with Winnie and Rob, so we share some funny stories and good times from back then.

Paul wraps it up with a political rant and more. Check it out.

In this episode, Brian Randolph (BioLab TM) and I sit down with Scott Felt to talk about his BMX journey, from growing up in the SoCal scene to becoming one of the fastest riders in the 50+ classes today.

Scott grew up in La Verne / San Dimas, in the middle of a strong Southern California BMX scene, riding tracks like Azusa, Monrovia, and Honda Hills alongside riders such as Matt Haden, Harry Leary, and Tinker Juarez. He shares stories about racing with Geoff Schofield and “Chicken” George Seevers and riding for S&K Bicycles and later White Bear through the early 90s before stepping away from racing around 1993.

Although he left competition, he never fully left riding, staying connected to BMX and riding with his friend Derek Garcia while focusing on work and family life.

In 2013, after more than 20 years off, Scott returned to racing at the Reno National, later racing Ventura and reconnecting with Greg Hill, who helped train both his son and, eventually, Scott himself. He competed through 2017 before taking another break to ride mountain bikes and support his son’s football.

In 2024, Scott returned again with a more focused approach, riding with his friend Lloyd Sherrod and later joining BioLab under team manager Brian Randolph. This time around, Scott raced names like John Whipperman, Corky Gainsford, Kirk Landeen, and Andy Contes, holding his own before moving into the 50-55 class, doubling at the ’24 Grands, and going on to win more than 40 Nationals in 2025, managing an injury toward the end of the season and dealing with it through the 2025 Grands.

We also discuss the possibility of a future matchup with multi-time European and World Champion Richard Van Zomeren in the 50+ Cruiser class, and whether they might line up at the 2026 Worlds in Australia alongside some of the guys Scott is racing in the US in 2026 and his future goals.

I first met Brian back in 2006 at one of the Free Agent clinics I was running at the time with Cristian Becerine. We stayed in touch on and off over the years, and I’d also see him at races from time to time. So it was great to finally reconnect properly when Brian and his son made the drive from Arizona to San Diego on Friday. We linked up with one of his team riders, Scott Felt, hung out, and recorded a couple of episodes together.

In this episode, we get into Brian’s story, starting with growing up in Florida and racing BMX in the 1980s. From there, Brian talks about his career in the Marine Corps, moving around for work, and continuing to race BMX wherever life took him when he could.

We then bring it up to the present, where Brian shares how he became Team Manager of the BioLab team at the end of 2023. He gives insight into what the team is all about, the vision behind it, and some of the riders on the roster, including Pistol Pete Loncarevich and Andy Contes, and lots more.

Thanks for driving over, Brian. It was cool catching up.

For this podcast, I sat down in Huntington Beach with Paul Roberts to talk all about the 2025 British BMX Hall of Fame inductees. We take a deeper dive into this year’s class, breaking down the stories and significance behind all 23 inductees for 2025.

After the last Joris Daudet / Chase debate, we received a lot of feedback and messages regarding the subject. Along with everything that was posted online, we decided we were done with it.

Since then, Joris reached out, and we spoke for some time on the phone. It was actually good to talk with him and get his side of the story. Christophe Leveque (Chase) also still had a lot more he wanted to say.

So here it is on this pod, and hopefully it’s somewhat balanced, with respect for both Christophe and Joris.

We also talked about some other things going on in the race world, from drug bans to new DRIVERS on teams, the British BMX Hall of Fame, Illinois, Nevada, and New Jersey Hall of Fames, fast ’80s riders from Vegas, and more. Check it out.

And yes, we are not journalists, as someone pointed out to us after the last pod—just a few old guys who still like to talk about racing, old and new. 

Dr. J stopped by with our longtime visiting Swiss friend, Szilard Szurdok, and we talked about all things Joris Daudet and Chase Bicycles. Check it out!

In this episode, we sit down with Kyle Kellner for his first podcast appearance. Kyle shares how growing up on the East Coast in a moto-obsessed family led him from riding pit bikes at Budds Creek to discovering the BMX track tucked inside the motocross facility. From watching McGrath and Pastrana on VHS to sneaking onto the local BMX track as a kid, Kyle talks about the early moments that shaped his love for two wheels and how that path eventually led him to the team today.

We talk about Alex’s early days — being friends with Brian Blyther, discovering BMX, and riding at two of SoCal’s famous spots: the Azusa track and Pipeline Skatepark in Upland.

We get into Alex’s friendship with Bo Usher, how he got his nickname “Super G” from a visit to the POW House, and meeting Chris Moeller, McGoo, Brad McDonald, Bill Ryan, and a lot of other key people who went on to become major figures in the BMX industry.

Alex talks about the days driving to the ABA Grands and winning the Pit Bike race, working at S&M, selling S&M and later Super G t-shirts at the races, and putting on the Super G Jams at Sheep Hills and Twin Palms.

We also talk about some of the riders who were sponsored by Super G Products.

Alex then shares one of the most difficult times in his life — getting shot while riding his bike, waking up in ICU, and going through the long recovery that followed.

This is just Part 1 of Alex “Super G”’s story. I had a great day hanging out with him, hearing his stories, and feeling his love for BMX. Check it out!

It was great to catch up for a podcast with U.S. Elite Pro rider Cam Bramer while he was out here in San Diego, getting ready for this weekend’s Holeshot Challenge at the State Finals at San Diego BMX.

Cam shared some insight into his BMX journey, starting out at the legendary South Park track in Pennsylvania — a place many of us have raced over the decades — and progressing through the amateur ranks all the way to Pro. This year, he reached a huge milestone, winning his first Elite National main event in Minnesota, in front of his family.

We talked about what it’s like being a current Pro in today’s tough climate. Despite the challenges, Cam has built a solid group of sponsors who support his racing journey. He also spoke about his recent move to Tulsa, Oklahoma, to further his career, his goal of racing more World Cups, and his ultimate dream — qualifying for the 2028 Olympic Games in Los Angeles and representing Team USA on home soil.

Cam gave some great perspective on the depth of the current Elite class, his mindset, and his drive to win. I really enjoyed this one — Cam’s a great guy, and it’s riders like him you can’t help but cheer for.

In this episode, we talk about the National BMX Hall of Fame, which Dr. J attended last weekend in Tulsa, Oklahoma. We cover the event itself, who was there, and some of the 2025 inductees.

We also dive into the Pump Track World Championships, where Eddy Clerte was crowned UCI Pump Track World Champion. We share our thoughts on the value of a rainbow jersey for Pump Track and what it means as a title.

From there, we move on to the final UCI World Cup of the season in Santiago del Estero, Argentina, with Arthur Pilard and Saya Sakakibara taking the overall titles. Plus, we touch on the upcoming Enhanced Games slated for 2026—and more.
