The noisemakers, hootin, hollerin and cowbellin’ were in full effect today as the NBL Presidents Cup kicked off the traditional triple-header weekend. Though sometimes tough to pick out in their state jerseys, the stars shined through in the 190 moto conflagration to bring a day of high-octane BMX Racing. Elite Open had 7/8 of a rack, and Tyler Faoro pulled off an impressive upset on CJ McGuire, snatching a perfect from CJ’s clutches in the main and posting the top-class top spot (though the top five spots in Elite Open went to Florida, so they pretty much had a lock on the top-class bragging rights). Four Florida ladies also passed the line as a quad-pack, with Amanda Geving piloting her new MCS to a perfect. Speaking of Florida, above, check Maliek Byndloss, fresh off a week at the Junior Dev Camp in Chula Vista to score 12, count ‘em a perfect dozen (class, cruiser and open), first place laps on the day. More from Louisville on Monday but, as the Eastern time zone is catching up with us quickly, we need to make a beeline for bedtime.
