Tanya Bailey wins the 2007 BMX Nationals

For the last 7 months or so my girlfriend Deonie has been living with Tanya Bailey, one of Australia’s top female BMX riders. This weekend Tanya has been in beautiful Lake Macquarie for the 2007 BMX Australia National Championships. Deonie sent me a text an hour ago saying that Tanya has taken out first place in the Elite Women category. Go Tan! You ROCK!

Press coverage has been, ummm, light, although the results are mentioned over at bmxmania.com. I also found an interview with Tanya from last year over at BMX Ultra. Even though I’ve met her several times, I didn’t know that Tanya likes Spiderbait and The Gurge, which makes her even cooler.
