2006 East Coast National
The East Coast National is held annually in Egg Harbor, New Jersey and for many BMXers from the Northeast, is a signal to the beginning of summer racing. This year was no different as racers came out by the hundreds, putting moto counts at over 130. The weekend really came together with some great weather and awesome track conditions. So, scroll on down and check out what we have to offer.
