PULL: You’ve been hovering around the top of National points all this year. Where are you at right now?
SEAN DAY: Number three right now, but I might be No.1 after this weekend.
PULL: That’s right - 12x had the biggest rider-count this weekend. How’s that feel?
DAY: As long as Jesse isn’t in first, it’s good. We’ll see how it goes.
PULL: I won’t find too many Jesse Welch fans around the Full Tilt pits, will I?
DAY: No, not at all.
PULL: So, what do you attribute to having such a good year?
DAY: A lot of the credit I would say is the team - Full Tilt, for getting me all of the nice stuff. For taking care of me. Giving me the support.
PULL: This is your first year on Full Tilt, right?
DAY: Yes it is. I rode for Throdwn last year.
PULL: The Full Tilt guys have quite a few nicknames for you.
DAY: Well, at first they called me Suave, or RickoSuave. But now they call me Sean-John.

If there is one good thing about this year’s Covid closures of states and counties, it is that tracks that might not normally have gotten a shot at hosting a National or Gold Cup event, were now given that opportunity.

GOLD CUP SOUTHEAST
This year the DK Bicycles Gold Cup South East Finals were held at one of the fastest BMX tracks in Alabama - Circle City BMX, in Dothan. If trying to claim one of the coveted Gold Cup Plates brought you to Circle City BMX for your first time you might have been surprised when you first saw the track layout.
GOLD CUP SOUTHWEST
When you roll into the local Quiktrip and one of Tucson’s finest looks at your shirt and asks if you know Corben Sharrah, you can only be in one city in America. Often coined as the loudest city in BMX, it doesn’t matter if there is a single fan or a gaggle of Tucsonans, they know how to bring the energy.
GOLD CUP NORTHEAST
With all of the uncertainty in event planning this year, it was not a huge surprise that the DK Bicycles North East Gold Cup Finals shifted locations somewhat last minute. We were very lucky to have it and at a great location, Akron BMX in Akron, Ohio. The Big Red Truck was last here for the 2018 North East Gold Cup Finals, and the track is located in a pretty incredible location.
