ABA Super Nationals Desoto, Texas
Round 8 of the 2004 ABA Pro BMX race series was held this past
weekend in Desoto, Texas. Metroplex BMX is one of the nicest
and most thought
out BMX race facilities in the USA and the riders are always happy
to attend the events there. With 16 of the top AA Pros in attendance,
it was going to be a tough battle to make the main events, and
adding to that, it was a 3rd weekend of traveling and BMX racing
in a row
for all of the Double A Marketing riders, after attending the NBL
Florida spring break races. Here is how they finished up:
Randy Stumpfhauser has had a great 2004 season aboard his GT Ultra
Box and Desoto was just another example of that. On Saturday, Stumpy
finished 2nd in AA Pro and Pro Open. On Sunday, it was a 3rd in AA
and a 2nd in Pro Open. This puts Randy in 2nd overall in the ABA
AA Pro points chase, where he also sits #1 in the Pro Cruiser points.

Brandon Meadows has been putting in a lot of time on his BMX race
bike lately and it showed off in Desoto, as he was in the AA Pro
main both
days. On Saturday, Brandon rode to a 5th place finish in AA Pro.
On Sunday, Brandon rode consistent once again, this time placing
6th in
AA. Brandon's sponsors include Specialized, O'Neal, Tangent, Adidas,
Sun Ringle, Marazochi BMX Forks, Marwi, Oakley, Powerbar, and BMXpros.com.
Dale Holmes was planning to go to England to race and appear at the
UK Bike show, but due to his Visa not showing up in time, he flew
down to Desoto last minute to race BMX. Spending all week on his
MTB effected
him just a bit this weekend, but he still made 3 out of 4 main event.
On Saturday, Dale placed 5th in Pro Open. On Sunday it was a 8th
in AA and 5th again in Pro Open. Dale's sponsors include Free Agent,
KHS,
O'Neal, Kenda, Sun Ringle, Shimano, Profile, Marwi, Powerbar, Truvativ,
