Description snapshot

Today on Lititz BMX, we open something truly special.

Kyle A. Huffman shares a meaningful gift sent directly from Harry Leary’s sister, Linda Leary Taylor — a @pullbmx Magazine addressed to Harry himself. A genuine piece of BMX history, preserved and passed down from family to the Lititz BMX museum collection.

Seeing Harry’s name printed on original BMX mail is more than nostalgic — it’s personal. It’s legacy. It’s a reminder of the impact Harry had on the sport and the community that continues to carry his story forward.

Thank you, Linda, for trusting Lititz BMX with another incredible piece of history.

If you love BMX heritage, behind-the-scenes stories, and rare memorabilia connected to legends like Harry Leary, make sure to like, subscribe, and follow along as we continue preserving BMX history.
