We posted the pro results and report about the Lake Perris National BMX race earlier this week but we saw this photo on Dale Holmes' website which got us excited. The rainy race in California had Stephen Murray's son Seth on the starting gate for the first time. And guess what, he hit the podium first try! Free Agent didn't waste any time and picked up Seth straight away and also the Murray's got some good support from the ABA, Fly and MJT over the weekend.

If you are looking for some new clothes and want to support the Murray's at the same time, go to: Stay Strong Apparel
