What is BMX racing?
BMX racing has been around since the 1960’s. A California born race that became popular around the same time that motocross was spreading over the US. Being similar to motocross, BMX racing is a type of off-road bicycle racing. Races are an intense 30-40 second sprint on purpose-built, off-road single-lap race tracks. The track usually consists of a starting gate for up to eight racers, a groomed serpentine dirt race course made of various jumps and rollers and a finish line for kids and adults. BOYS and GIRLS as young as 2 years old, and MEN and WOMEN of all ages enjoy the sport.
BMX Racing was introduced into the 2008 Beijing Olympics.
