Historical Context
South Lake Tahoe BMX is a BMX racing track located in South Lake Tahoe, California, near the Nevada border and within the Sierra Nevada mountain region. The track operates under sanction from USA BMX, the governing body for organized BMX racing in the United States.
In 2015, South Lake Tahoe BMX hosted a USA BMX State Qualifier race as part of the California State Championship Series. State Qualifier events allow riders to earn points toward the California State Championship standings, with riders competing for state rankings and the opportunity to earn state number plates.
Events such as the 2015 State Qualifier brought together riders from across Northern California and neighboring regions to compete on the high-elevation track overlooking the Lake Tahoe basin. Like many local BMX facilities, South Lake Tahoe BMX plays an important role in grassroots BMX racing by providing organized competition, rider development, and community events for riders of all ages.
State Qualifier races are a key part of the USA BMX racing structure, bridging the gap between weekly local races and larger regional or national championship events.

Product Name: Day One: Remembering why you came here in the first place
Description:
We are all excited when we start something new. As the newness fades, we often forget what we saw that brought us here in the first place. This is my story and how once I realized what was going on, I became much happier in my day to day life by remembering Day One. While remembering day one will not guarantee you will become unhappy with something, forgetting day one will almost guarantee your focus will change to the negative aspects and away from the positive aspects of it.
