Ripxx would like to thank Charlotte BMX for hosting the event, as well as all the sponsors and friends who have contributed to this cause at such short notice.

Ripxx Team BMX lost a great friend and parent on Monday. Billy Flynn, Sr. suffered a massive brain aneurysm. He was the parent of a Ripxx Team rider, and provided his help anywhere possible for the sport of BMX. He had just been at the Cape Coral track on Saturday helping with the rebuild. A benefit race will be held on Sunday, February 27, 2011 at Charlotte BMX Track in Punta Gorda, Florida. Practice will begin at 2:00 p.m. and races will continue at 4:00 p.m. The NBL has agreed to make this a quadruple regional point’s race. 
After doing a BMX 'zine for ten years (1987 - 1996) FATBMX made it on the internet. The year was 1998. Here to stay.
