NEBRASKA BMX HALL OF FAME NOMINEES FOR 2025
As the first official State BMX Hall of Fame in America, we’re proud of our heritage and legacy. In 2025, we’re continuing the Nebraska BMX Hall of Fame tradition by gearing up to honor even more of our past Nebraska BMX legends.
This year we will be doing something a bit different. We will be producing a special episode of the Super Rad BMX Podcast to introduce the new inductees, interview them, and give them the opportunity to talk about their contributions to Nebraska BMX. We’ll include some interviews with the current Nebraska BMX Hall of Fame riders, which should be very entertaining!
Then, next year in 2026, we are laying the groundwork for a full-blown reunion and awards banquet. Our committee is researching venues and dates to make 2026 an event to remember.
Nebraska BMX Hall of Fame categories will continue with our original slots for the decades of the 1970’s, 1980’s, 1990’s and Track Operators. In 2025, we are excited to add a Freestyle BMX category.
This list is a starting point, with carry-over nominees from previous years. If you have a suggestion for someone you feel should be on the list of nominees, please contact Tim Lillethorup at: tim@lpvideo.com. Our committee will be voting soon, so we will be sure to spread the word at the local BMX tracks and on social media.
