BMX pedal bike racing - fun for ALL ages! Did you know that one of the top rated BMX pedal bike racing facilities in the country is right in your own back yard? Here is your chance to spend part of your day at the Rum River BMX Track learning about BMX pedal bike racing from some of the top riders in the United States! This camp will cover BMX fundamentals including "What is BMX racing?" racing bike types, BMX terminology, course set up and BMX safety and most importantly...how you can ride like the wind! Riders will receive hands on riding instruction and will practice their new skills on the BMX track. This camp is designed for novice/new riders who are interested in the sport. If you pedal your bike with out training wheels you can take part in this class. No special bikes required... if it has wheels with a few adjustments it will work for this class. IF you don't have a bike, don't worry, we have plenty of free loaner bikes you can use. If you are using your own bike, you will need to bring your bike with reflectors, kickstand, chain guard and pegs removed, and a full-face helmet is recommended.
Please wear long pants, a long sleeve shirt and tennis shoes. Bikes and helmets are required, so bring whatever you have. There are a limited number of loaner bikes and helmets available at the track on a first come, first serve basis.
A signed waiver is required for each participant, which is available upon check-in at the track.
This is a family event and parents are strongly encouraged to come watch the kids as it will give the kids and the parents a sense of pride.
Registration starts at 5:30 until 6:00pm. Class will last from 6:00-8:00pm
