Sign up for our beginner intro and learn BMX racing!  

​

Our beginner intro is geared to novice riders with no experience on the track!   Free loaner bikes and helmets are available. Indicate on the sign up form if you need either! 

​

Cost:

$40 and this is rolled into the cost of an annual license if you want to race again!  The session will include 2 hours of instruction and a free race in the afternoon with a 1 day trial license. If your racer has fun and wants to race again, we can convert the 1 day license to an annual license for an additional $40. The membership lasts for 365 days and is good at 300+ sanctioned BMX tracks. 

For the rest of 2024, we are also offering new riders a 5 race free punch card (valid for calendar 2024 races)!
