Hi all, unfortunately we have to cancel tonight’s sessions Cardiff BMX Racing Club due to the wind. The club have advised that the forecast gusts are above their risk assessment levels and we need to ensure riders safety.

We will automatically roll the signed up riders onto the next session on April 22. We appreciate this is 4 weeks away so if you would prefer a refund please DM us with your bank details and we will arrange that.

If everyone can do a little sun dance, we’ll hopefully see you soon!

We’re stoked to be supporting the Bristol Jets Bmx rider of the day award for the 2026 South West Region BMX Racing season! Eddie delivered an outstanding performance in round 1 to scoop the first award of the year. Congrats Ed 🤟

What a great start to the Regional Racing season! 🏁
We had some amazing results, with 7 of our riders finishing in podium position. A huge well done to everyone who travelled down to Bideford and raced – your efforts really paid off.

Our Bristol beady eye also spotted a standout Rider of the Day 👀
Eddie Millington absolutely smashed his racing on Sunday. His winter training programme has clearly paid off, winning all of his motos and the final. Eddie was strong out of the gate and even stronger around the track.
Not only is Eddie incredibly fast, but he’s also a fantastic role model on and off the track for the rest of our riders. We’re really looking forward to seeing how the season unfolds for him!

A big thank you to our coaches Sophie Ellwood, Ade and Tom at The Racecraft Alliance , who sponsored our Rider of the Day with a free coaching session this season 🙌
