Four of the biggest names in BMX sat atop a stage at Nike Town in Chicago.

Close by, youth from Triple Threat programs watched and asked questions. How close? We’re talking inches.

Triple Threat and about 30 youth from its basketball and biking programs took to the Windy City recently for Nike 6.0 Dew Tour pre-show. Our good friends at Nike hooked us up with a special section reserved for us at the front of the stage. Nike riders Garrett Reynolds, Dennis Enarson, Nigel Sylvester and Mike Spinner answered questions from Triple Threat youth and others the day before the tour kicked off.

The kids had a blast, rubbing elbows with the same international biking stars they watch on TV. Except they weren’t on TV. The foursome was hanging out with 3T youth, signing posters and joking around.

Nike also gave away a number of items, including a Flip video camera and tickets to the actual Dew Tour the next day. Thanks to Nike for creating this fantastic experience for some well-deserving kids!
