The South Point Casino sponsors annual BMX bicycle races. The three-day event, started Friday (7/13/18) and ended Sunday (7/15/18). Children and adults from the United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Colombia and China, raced around the dirt track taking jumps and fast turns. I enjoyed photographing this event despite the poor lighting and access restrictions. I also enjoyed chatting with the contestants’ family many of whom were bikers.
Tule Springs - . Indian populations drank from this spring, and prospectors also stopped here. Later, Tule Springs was a watering hole for the horse drawn Bullfrog Stage Line on it's route to the mining community of Rhyolite. Now, Tule Springs has become a picnic area for Las Vegans.
