Answer BMX Products Inc is proud to announce the signing of 3X ABA Pro Champion and UCI World Champion Bubba Harris to a multi year sponsorship contract.   

This is Bubba’s second stint as a racer for Answer Products as he raced for the brand as a pre-teen back in the 90’s before going on to his previous longtime sponsor Redline Bicycles.  

Bubba will make his Answer BMX pro debut at the ABA Winter Nationals in Phoenix AZ on March 6-8 2009.

“We are absolutely thrilled to have Bubba as our Pro for Answer BMX as he continues his comeback from a devastating ankle injury in China and additional injury at the Olympic Trials last summer. We can’t think of a rider with a bigger fan base and more desire to be a champion and ambassador for the sport of BMX than Bubba. He started his high profile career as one of the original “Answer Kids” and it’s our intention to keep him as the “Answer Pro” for a long, long time,” commented Ryan Birk, Vice President of Answer BMX.

Answer BMX would also like to announce the sponsorship agreement between Burlin Harris and his BMX Supercamps as the new Answer Supercamp!  

Make sure you stop by and check out Lulu’s new look at the ABA Winter Nationals this weekend in Phoenix and meet Burlin and his staff of trainers to find out when the Supercamp is coming to your town.

The International Cycling Union (UCI) has agreed to work closely with the French-Anti Doping Agency (AFLD) in a move to crack down on cheats in the sport.

Both parties signed an agreement on Friday for the AFLD, whose methods helped catch several top names during last year’s Tour de France, to carry out tests on the Paris-Nice race under the UCI’s jurisdiction.

The AFLD, however, will have room to target some riders on their own initiative….  Details
