Jeff Study began his BMX racing career in 1978 at the age of 11. He attended his first race with a neighbor at the Northeast YMCA BMX Track in Lincoln, Nebraska and was immediately hooked on the sport. Jeff along with his brother Kevin and Dad Jerry soon became fixtures on the Nebraska BMX circuit. His interest in BMX continued to grow and with the help of his parents was soon racing every weekend in Lincoln, Omaha, York, Crete and Waverly. In addition it wasn’t uncommon for them to take weekend trips to Iowa and Missouri for larger events. Jeff was initially sponsored by his parents then later by Lincoln Schwinn, Panda and Co-Factory Schwinn. While on Lincoln Schwinn he was part of a dominant team in the mid-1980’s winning numerous Team and individual titles throughout the Midwest.

In 2003 Jeff returned to BMX at tracks in the Las Vegas, Nevada area where he was living and working in the US Air Force. Jeff quickly became a regular on the Nevada race scene initially racing on the Direct Link Factory team before moving to the Rampage Racing Crew (RRC) helping them to a national #3 Bike Shop team finish in 2009. Jeff finished the 2009 ABA season ranked Nevada Cruiser District #1 and National Age Group #8 in the 36-40 cruiser class. Jeff was inducted into the Nebraska BMX Hall of Fame on August 18th, 2012.
