Back in the early 1970's, a group of young riders were pretending to be their favorite motorcycle racing hero by "racing' around a vacant dirt lot, twisting the imaginary throttle while they pedaled their bicycles. The desire and vision has evolved into a full-blown sport in which riders compete on established dirt tracks elevating themselves to "hero" status. A typical race around a BMX track will last about 50 seconds pitting a rider against up to 7 other riders all going for the top prize. Races are organized according to age group and skill levels, so everyone has the opportunity to compete on a fair level. BMX offers every riders the ability to participate at their own pace....NO ONE SITS ON THE BENCH! There are no coaches deciding who gets to play, everyone gets into the action.
