Out of a field of 32 BMX riders Zane Bradley (BMX park and vert) won both the vert and park competition Saturday at the Gatorade Free Flow Tour’s stop in Rye, N.H. In the BMX park and vert competitions, 14-year-old Bradley from Troy, N.H. swept the day’s events, winning both contests with technical tricks and innovative lines throughout his runs. “I can’t wait to get to the Finals,” Bradley said. “I’ve heard it’s so much fun. I’m going to ride as much as possible until then so that I can compete with the best.”

“This was the best outside event to ever come through the park,” Rye Airfield manager, Beau Lambert, said. “This year was great because of the small attention to detail that went into the stop. From the heat sheets to the goodie bags, the Gatorade Free Flow Tour is a great event.”

With the win, Bradley earns an automatic bid into the Gatorade Free Flow Tour Finals that will take place at the Dew Tour’s Toyota

Challenge, September 17-20, 2009.
