Racers ranging in age from young children to children at heart took to the dirt track at the Tri-City BMX race course in Rotterdam Saturday, speeding around the track pushing to take first place.
Saturday’s race not only commemorated the bicycle motocross course’s 40th anniversary, but also honored the late Bobby Iovinella Jr. who died in a car accident at the age of 29.
Iovinella not only raced at the track, but also helped to design it, said his father Bobby Iovinella Sr.
“He just loved the sport,” his father said.
