    Name: “Monster” Mike Schultz Birthdate: 8/27/1981 Hometown: Pillager, MN Disciplines: Snocross and motocross Sponsored by: FOX Years competing: 18 Mike’s Story: Racing motocross since 1997 and snocross since 1998, Mike was in the midst of a promising professional snocross career when he suffered a devastating accident. While competing in a qualifying race in the Pro Super Stock class of the 2008 AMSOIL Championship Snocross event, Mike’s snowmobile drifted sideways as he jumped over a mogul. When he came out of the jump he landed on his left leg, his knee “virtually exploding.” After undergoing multiple emergency surgeries in the hospital, doctors decided that amputating his left leg above the knee was the only way to save Mike’s life. But Mike was never the kind of guy to sit around feeling sorry for himself. So Mike strapped on his prosthetic leg and started pushing it to its limits. He did what he could to make it work for his favorite activities--snocross, motocross, skiing, etc.-- but was ultimately disappointed with how his "everyday" prosthetic was unable to keep up. At that point, Mike took what was to him the logical next step: he designed and machined his own prosthetic knee/leg. And even though Mike didn't have any formal engineering training, but was more the kind of guy who enjoyed "putzing around in the shop," it worked. Mike's sports leg allowed him to live his life the way he wanted to live it, doing the things he enjoyed. Since his accident in 2008, Mike has made history by being the only person to win Winter and Summer X Game gold medals in two different sports in the same year; he's started a company called Biodapt, Inc.

    Missouri Valley Complex Master Plan January 2017 Table of Contents Introduction …………………………………………………………………………………………………. 2 Assessment of Existing Site ……………………………………………………………….. 5 Master Planning Process ……………………………………………………………………… 19 Missouri Valley Complex Master Plan ………………………………………… 28 Phasing and Capital Costs Plan ………………………………………………………… 41 Appendix A (stakeholder meetings)…………………………………………………………………… 51 Appendix B (survey feedback) ………………………………………………………………………….. 52 Appendix C (November 10, Concept Presentation) ……………………………………………… 54 Appendix D (Master Plan Perspectives) …………………………………………………………….. 55 1 Introduction The purpose of this document is to present the results of a study of the current 350-acre Missouri Valley Complex, located at the junction of East Bismarck Expressway and Highway 10, for the continued development as a multi-use recreational park. For more than 30 years, Burleigh County has maintained ownership of the complex which has served the communities of Bismarck-Mandan and the surrounding region. Acquired in 1987, the complex was originally purchased for the intent of serving as the fairgrounds complex for Burleigh County. Shortly after acquiring the complex in 1988, the County completed a master plan to help determine the programmatic uses of the site which would help guide its development. This original master plan focused on supporting fairground-type activities and included elements such as a drag strip, grandstand racing complex, beer garden, carnival fairway, a rodeo complex and livestock facilities. However, due to dwindling county fair attendance during the mid- 1990s, this initial master plan was never fully implemented and Burleigh County successfully petitioned the state legislature to allow the complex to be utilized and developed for uses other than the county fair. During this time, Burleigh County also began leasing out portions of the site to interested parties and community groups such as Buckstop Junction and motocross organizations.

  • 2019 Marketing Deck About Us
    www.BorderBattleXC.com The Upper Midwest’s premier off-road series 2019 MARKETING DECK ABOUT US My name is Gary Walton and I’m the guy who wears most of the hats at RideX365. I’ve worked in the powersports industry for over 30 years in every capacity from participant to crew member, graphics guy, sponsor and for the past several years as a media and marketing rep for a number of professional race teams, as well as our own brand. Along the way I’ve been lucky enough to work with the organizers of the original Paris-Dakar Rally on a 10-day, 1,500 mile snowmobile race across Quebec, was part of a team that founded the International Series of Champions, which later became the pro snocross tour and have raced just about everything at every level. These opportunities have allowed me to meet some great racing friends and minds whose experience and input is a key part of what we do with the RideX365 website and magazine and now with the BBXC series. With my racing days winding to an end, it has become my passion to grow this new series as an elevated platform for Midwest racers, of all ages, while putting off-road in front of legitimate numbers of spectators and introducing new riders to the sport. OUR MISSION The Border Battle XC series was created to provide a high-profile platform for the best racers in the Midwest to compete head-to- head without having to travel halfway across the country.
