JP has been overlooked and is a very well deserved nominee. Although Dougie Takahashi is not on the list, the two belong together in BMX history just like Cash Matthews and Matt Raymer

The duo of JP and Takahashi was one of the best and most insane sidehacks in the history of our sport

Learn something every day on RAD. Thanks for the info

I'm all for recognition for those "unsung heroes" from Back in the Day, but that list has some heavy hitters on it,that personally i can relate to a little more.

From being a 12,13,14,15 year old in a little village here in the UK,many of those names were known to me even from back then so my vote will unfortunately go elsewhere.

Just checked out the ABA voting forms and you can vote for who you like,so thats cool for those that want to support a particular name who maybe wasnt on the suggested nominees list.
