USA BMX is pleased to announce all 29 stops in the 2014 National Schedule. While we will be returning to many of the towns that we have worked with in the past, USA BMX is also thrilled to add some first-time locations and return to previous facilities. Among the big changes, USA BMX has listened to the membership and added national events in the states of Washington, Michigan and Colorado. Other towns and states - such as Reno and Louisville, California and Pennsylvania, will be getting two events this year.

Next week the Interbike show will take place in Las Vegas. A new venue (Mandalay Bay) and lots of new bikes for 2014 will be on display. But most of these bikes made it over to Friedrichshafen already and we're going to show them on FATBMX in the next days starting off with HARO Bikes' race program. The top of the line Blackout complete bike drew some attention but it was the carbon Haro Clutch frame and fork set that stole the show. So light that the stem was the heaviest part of the F&F set up. The Annex is the entry level race bike line followed by the Race LT line all of which look great. Come inside to check it.

Last year we were shown two new pototype products by Tioga at the Eurobike show. The OS tire, which is still being tested and in development and the slim pedal. This year the flattest pedal with the bearing on the outside was on display already in several colours. If you like flat pedals, the Tioga ones are something to look into. You won't find any slimmer pedals around. Tioga also had their ever popular tires on display and a full range of D-Spyder seats.

Sometimes it's crazy how things go in life. I had Toby Henderson's Raleigh poster up in the bedroom for years and now he was explaining the new Box/Promax products to me. The good thing about Box is that they're stepping out of the box to develop new bike parts. It's not just a new logo on the already developed bike part, it's designed, prototyped, tested and then produced. This gives them the possiblilty to come up with exotic BMX parts that will make your bike stand out from the rest.
