What is Bicycle Motocross Racing (BMX) Racing?
BMX is one of the fastest growing youth sports in the nation. BMX is bicycle racing on a dirt track with jumps and turns. BMX is a sport catering to the individual. Every rider gets to participate and compete. No one sits on the bench and no one gets cut from the team of BMX.

Skill Levels:There are three amateur skill levels: Novice, Intermediate, and Expert. All riders start as Novices and work up to the more advanced levels by winning races.

Membership: You must join the ABA to ride on the track. We have a 1-day Free Membership just to see if you like the sport of BMX. If you do, you can then purchase a 30-day trial membership or a full membership. A 30-day trial membership is available for $25. Within the 30 days, you can join the ABA as a full member for only $25 more. A full membership is $45 per year.
