The Bull Goes With Bill

BMXNEWS was the first to have the scoop of Nathan “The Bull” Padilla going to Team Supercross. We just happened to be interviewing SX President, Bill Ryan as he was driving out to the ABA Golden State Nationals in Lancaster last Friday. Bill filled us in as part of the interview, and BMXNEWS readers had it the following day, once the interview was edited.

But, the always-on-the-details Supercross propaganda machine sent over an official press release and photo of Nate in his jersey, so we’re happy to pass it on for all to see.

Release to follow:

Official at the 2009 ABA Golden State Nationals last weekend was the addition of the 2009 USAC Jr. Devo Champion and all around cool kid, Nate Padilla to the Supercross BMX Factory team. Nate has been around BMX all of his life, and has ridden a Supercross for the last three years with his previous Sponsor Bellflower Bikes. With Nate’s new goal of a spot in the 2016 Olympics, it was time to move him up to Full Factory Status.

Nate will be hitting the circuit aboard his custom Burnt Orange-anodized ENVY, and is gunning for a spot in the NAG 5 Challenge. Nate’s next race with the Supercross Factory Team will be the ABA Disney Cup where Nate will be attacking the track with style along with a few of his Pro teammates, Kris Fox, Kenth Fallen, Jimmy Brown, Courtney Tomei and another newcomer to the team, Logan Collins.

The whole Supercross family looks forward to Nate and his family calling the Supercross pits home for a long long time.
