Gilbert, AZ (PRWEB) September 13, 2006 -- The ABA (American Bicycle Association) announced today that voting has commenced for the 2006 ABA BMX “Hall of Fame”. Each year since 1985, a select group of BMX (Bicycle Motocross) riders and/or industry veterans have been nominated. Once again this year the ABA BMX “Hall of Fame” committee has chosen the nominees from “Early BMXers”, “BMX Racers” and “Industry Members”.
The ABA BMX “Hall of Fame” is the who’s who of BMX and it consists of riders and industry members who have made notable contributions to the sport.
