Florida’s Fastest and Finest

he great Sunshine Statehas long been a BMXmecca, dating all the wayback to the early 70’s,when the NML first beganholding races.Since as this issue is dedicatedto the entire Florida BMX scene,PULL magazine thought it’sabout time to compile a bigbatch of Florida’s Top-10 lists.We hit up a variety of FloridianBMX legends and know-it-alls,to compile the following Top-10lists. ...and believe, there wasmuch heated discussions andthought put into these Top-10’s.

Our criteria was: “Someday, if the state of Florida were to start up their own BMX Hall of Fame, this article could be a good starting point.”

In many categories, it was hardto chop them down to just 10,so we’ve added honorablementions to some categories.

Enjoy.

Compiled by ten well-known Florida BMX historians and the PULL magazine staff.
