The Local Exposure Tour (LET) hits the road again in April. Dave Rytell was the winner in 2006 and got picked up by Mirraco as a result. He’s been on the team ever since and will join the Golden Ticket LET this April with Team mate Rob Wise. Here’s the full info on the tour. If you live close to one of these venues make sure to check out Dave and Rob and just join the session. Local Exposure Tour IV “The Golden Ticket” Local Exposure Tour (LET) is a chance for some of the top pro’s in BMX to set out on a road trip with the idea to search for some unknown amateur talent at local skate parks. This is the first time in LET history that we come out to the West coast in search of talent. The rules are that anyone can enter as long as you have not been featured in a advertisement by a sponsor. All ages and skill levels are welcome to come and ride our jam format and best of all it’s all free! Amateur riders will get a chance to ride with their favorite pros and show them the hot lines around their local park. Due to the great support we have for this year we have a ton of goods to give away at every stop so no one should leave empty handed! Pro Riders confirmed for this year!
