ABA Gator Nationals, Oldsmar, Florida

Round #6 of the 2003 ABA National series was held on the East Coast this past weekend in Sunny Florida. Well, its usually a sunny place but on Sunday it rained all day making for one of the worst mud races in a long time. BMX racing in the rain isn't one bit of fun, and really is kind of dangerous, and wreck your bike, but with the ABA, the "show"must go on. Here is how the Double A Marketing riders finished up at the event.

Dale Holmes is used to racing in the rain, as Europe always has rain show up just in time for the racing. Dale showed his consistency in the dry and wet with a 4th in AA Pro both days and a 3rd in Pro Open both days. Dale is once again having a great season, as he sits in the top 10 in both ABA and NBL pro standings. Dale's sponsors include Free Agent, O'Neal, Smith Eyewear, Kenda Tires, Bombshell Forks, Sun Ringle, UGP, Profile, ODI Grips, Vans, Shimano, BMXpros.com, and Daleholmes.com.

Randy Stumpfhauser has been racing a bit more in 2003 with hitting more and more ABA races. Oldsmar was a new race for Stumpy and a 5th in AA as well as a 5th and 6th in Pro Open was his finishes. Stumpy doesn't like the rain, but he loves to race and is always happy to be at the track, no matter what. Randy's sponsors include Huffy Bicycles, Fox Racing, AC Components, IRC Tires, Smith Eyewear, Alex Rims, S & M Forks and Bars, ODI, BMXpros.com, Champion Nutrition, Shimano, Vans, and CTI Knee Braces.
