In this episode of Radmattic, we bring you an exciting recap of the USA BMX Vintage Nationals Bike Show, National BMX Hall of Fame Museum tour, and the thrilling vintage BMX racing held at the USA BMX headquarters in Tulsa, Oklahoma on Saturday, September 21, 2024.
BMX collectors from across the country gathered to showcase their top-tier vintage collections, competing for awards in 1970s, 1980s, and 1990s categories. This year’s show featured some incredible bikes from legendary brands like Mongoose, Redline, Torker, Yamaha, Webco, SE Racing, JMC, Hutch, RRS, and more.
A special highlight was our visit to the National BMX Hall of Fame Museum, where we explored professionally curated displays of BMX history, including iconic bikes that shaped the sport from the early 1970s to today’s Olympic racing era. We also saw the plaques honoring the legendary riders and industry pioneers inducted into the BMX Hall of Fame.
Rounding out the day was an epic Old School BMX race on the Hardesty Arena track, part of the USA BMX Headquarters and Museum complex, where vintage BMX bikes hit the track in true old-school style!
