About the Nebraska BMX Hall of Fame
Welcome to the official Nebraska BMX Hall of Fame web site. We're glad you found us here on the internet.
The concept for a Hall of Fame for the BMXers from Nebraska was an idea I had brewing for many years. In my mind, there needed to be a way to honor the people who created BMX in this part of the country and who left a legacy that extended past the borders of Nebraska, to the entire United States and beyond.

Message from the OM - Scot Briethaupt
Scot "OM (Old Man)" Breithaupt is known as the "Founding Father" of BMX as a sport. At a young age, in the late 1960's and early 1970's, Scot organized the first recognized BMX races. But his role in BMX didn't stop there and continues 40 plus years later. He is also the founder of SE (Scot Enterprises) Racing, a BMX company that runs strong to this day.
Nebraska BMX Memories By Doug Olson
Inspiration:
Joe Baumert
Of all Professional BMX racers to come from Nebraska, Joe Baumert is in the top two as far as wins, national exposure and world-wide popularity. As the Pro division grew in both the ABA and NBL sanctions, Joe Baumert became a fixture at nearly all major races and nationals. While most top Pros had sponsorships, Joe did most of his racing unsponsored as a privateer.
