I started working this weekend on the Rider Profile pages. I'm working on the page format first, then I'll do the background programming that will add and display riders profiles. It might take a couple weeks to put everything together, but hopefully it will be a popular feature on the site.

My question to you, our faithful UtahBMX'ers, is what kind of info would you like to see on each rider? I'm looking for any suggestions. I'll have the standard info like name, nicknames, type of bike, accomplishments, goals, etc, but are there any fun and interesting questions that you'd like to see?

As always, I thank you for your support!

Ok. I've worked up a prototype of what the Rider Profile page will look like. This is just the start, but I was hoping to get some feedback as to what you think.

I would really like to hear any comments or suggestions. Just reply back to this post, or feel free to email me.

How about including interests outside of bmx, how you got into riding, favorite track and riding influences. Good job with the site!

The rider profile page looks great. Good job.

We missed you last night at Rad. There were some ugly wrecks.

My son Colton was one of them. He jumped the big double and when he landed his tire washed out and he went down. The other three riders behind him ran into him or ran him over. He is ok. Lots of road rash and a sore neck. He's a tough one!!

Keep up the good work. This site is awesome.

Thanks for the suggestions, those sound great and I'll get those included! I think I might also change the format a little based on each rider, maybe even let riders make up their own questions. I'll start putting together the page tonite to let riders register for rider profiles, stay tuned!

Darla,

I missed being out there too. It's tough to not race when you live 5 mins away from the track, but I had some things to handle around the house, and I REALLY wanted to work on the rider profile page. I had some ideas during the day and wanted to see what they would look like. Good to hear Colton is okay. I'll be out there thursday for sure!
