I got this from Gene's BMX site. Imagine. If the Singapore Sports Council and MCYS had actually LISTENED to us back then, we would have had a great BMX track for these guys to come and train on. Given Singapore's relatively close proximity to China, it would have been perfect. These guys had to go to Australia to train because their BMX scene is much better than us. Instead, the powers that be at SSC and MCYS chose to ignore us and now? They are rushing like MAD to get things up and running for the Youth Olympics in 2010! We could have been prepared close to 8 years ago!
