BMX Freestyle Companies Mirraco and Haro Bikes Collaborate To Honor the Legacy of Dave Mirra.
Mirraco and Haro bikes announced today the signing of a licensing agreement that will honor Dave Mirra’s long history with Haro bikes. The three-year agreement, with portions of the proceeds giving back to support and grow the sport, will provide Haro the opportunity to produce and sell modern-day interpretations of the signature models rode by Mirra during his ten-year run with Haro. “Together Dave and I enjoyed a long history with Haro, so I felt it was only fitting for Haro to be included in a broad-ranging initiative Mirraco has planned to preserve and honor Dave’s legacy,” said Jim Ford, Mirraco co-founder and president.
Haro Chief Operating Officer, Joe Hawk, said: “Dave Mirra was a integral part of Haro’s rapid growth in the nineties and beyond, and we welcome the opportunity to participate in the efforts Mirraco has initiated to preserve Dave’s legacy.”

Things will be shaken up in the standings after the race in Rock Hill this weekend as some of the girls have chosen not to race. Among those are top favourites Caroline Buchanan, Mariana Pajon, Stefany Hernandez and Alise Post. This will leave the door open for the competition to move up in the 2016 overall UCI BMX SX World Cup ranking with two stops to go. Here's how the ranking looks after three of the five rounds. Where do you predict the changes?
