This past weekend the Recon Tour hit The Incline Club out in New Jersey and things got WILD. Check out highlights from the Pro class up above and then take a look at what the AM’s threw down, down below! Sooo stoked to see Brett Banasiewicz riding in a pro contest again!
“The first Recon Tour PRO presented by Replay XD went down this past weekend with Monster Energy’s own Kevin Peraza claiming the top spot and earning $5,000. Peraza was up against a stacked field of competition including athletes such as Daniel Sandoval, Nick Bruce, Rob Armour, Jack Fahey, and Kenneth Tencio to name a few. This event is unique because in today’s world of BMX events there is not a way for no-name athletes to compete in PRO events even if they have the talent. This event gives athletes such as Trent Newkirk, Brian Fox, Joel Bondu, and Matty Cranmer a chance to compete against the professionals. They earned their spot by placing on the podium in the Recon Tour AM event’s earlier in the year which ensured them a spot in the Recon Tour PRO event. It was a cinderella story for Joel Bondu and Trent Newkirk who placed 2nd and 3rd in the Recon Tour PRO on Sunday. Joel earned his spot in the PRO the day before by taking 3rd place in the AM Recon Tour. He showed up on Sunday with the fire in his eyes and proved to everyone that he belongs in the PRO division by taking home 2nd place and $2,500 right behind Kevin. Trent also earned his spot in the PRO by making it to the Recon Tour Finals last year. He had an impressive finish on Sunday taking home 3rd place and beating some of the best BMX athletes in the world and walking away with $1,000.
