All Ages & Skill Levels
From young balance-bike riders to adult racers, everyone has a place at the starting gate.
Get on the Track
EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO START RACING
Getting Started:
Equipment & Clothing
For safety reasons, skin must be covered to ride on the BMX track.
Top: Long-sleeve shirt
Bottoms: Long pants (jeans or durable athletic pants are best)
Shoes: Closed-toe athletic shoes
Protection: Knee and elbow pads are highly recommended, even for beginners.
For the Orientation (NRO): Most standard bikes and helmets are allowed, provided they pass a quick safety inspection by our staff at the gate.
Loaner Gear: We have a limited number of program bikes and helmets available on a first-come, first-served basis specifically for NRO participants.
Moving Beyond NRO: If you decide to stick with the sport, a full-face helmet is highly recommended. Once you become an official BMX member to join open practices, clinics, and racing, a track-specific BMX bike is required.
Before You Buy: Not all BMX bikes are built for racetrack riding (some are designed strictly for street or freestyle tricks). Check in with our BMX staff or a local bike shop for advice before you buy a new ride!
