You would probably think 90s Pros when you see this photo, but it was actually taken in 2008 and shows the top five overall in NBL Pro points for that year.
Randy Stumpfhauser
Cristian Becerine
Jason Richardson
Matt Pohlkamp
Javier Colombo
Background info. All of them were over 30 at the time and in the later part of their Pro Elite and AA careers, later all racing Vet Pro. With the exception of Stumpy, who pulled an Ellis and Leveque and checked out with no desire to race Vet.

Not the guy that will post much or anything about personal life but I think today is definitely one of those special day. After 22 years today, I became a U.S citizen. It is an enormous feeling of happiness and to look back and think about the day that I landed in Miami with my BMX bike and $2500 on my pocket with this crazy believe that at 22 I can make money racing BMX in US it’s absolutely crazy. I guess this post is not about me but rather to said thank you to this country for all the opportunities over this years and also to said thank you for adopting me today and make me a US citizen! Thank you thank you and THANK YOU! I Would always be an Argentinian but boy I do LOVE this country so much!

TBT to when we did the 2008 #sebike catalog with @toddlyons Two things about this. One is that wildman was doing the racing shoot and I think the last time he raced was probably 20 years prior to this shoot and secondly, clearly I knew then I was going to be in the assembly business as I told him to please build my bike and you can see him on picture number 2 doing it so 😬. #sepkripper #bmxracing
Crazy excited about racing at the end of October this kart race in the parking lot of the Rio hotel in Vegas. In a BMX world this race would be like Grands so I’m anxious to see what can I do. It’s 4 days of practicing the track and racing so let’s see if this wannabe F1 driver can hang 🏎😂😬. #roktherio #kartracing #hopeidontfuckitup
Not the best footage but a good #tbt to the #bmx days when putting a foot down on the corners and going over track limits was normal. It’s 16X at the Argentinian championship 25 years ago 🤔😩. What’s also cool about this is that im racing on a jersey that @gregoryalanhill@gregbmxtrainer give me at worlds in Michigan in 94 when he was riding for Balance. I’ll bring it back one day Greg so you’ll sign it for me @gregbmxtrainer
