B.A. Anderson, the CEO of USA BMX, expressed sympathy for those affected by the hurricane, stating, “Our hearts go out to Oldsmar BMX, the Florida BMX community, and everyone affected at this time by Hurricane Milton.” Anderson emphasized the organization’s gratitude towards the City of Rock Hill for their swift assistance in accommodating the relocated event.
The decision to move the event is not only a logistical one but also a gesture of solidarity with the affected community in Florida. By relocating the Gator Nationals, USA BMX aims to help alleviate pressure on local resources in the hurricane-stricken area.
