From the moment that the starting gate slams down and you and up to seven other racers blast at a full sprint toward the first obstacle, BMX racing will give you that rush of adrenaline you've been looking for.

No matter what your age... when you get to the top of the starting hill at any BMX track around the nation, you can't help but feel this huge surge of adrenaline.

With big rewards, comes a little bit of risk. Your safety is our concern. FACT: BMX racing isn’t any more dangerous than other youth sports. Statistics have shown that kids in the traditional (less “extreme”) sports such as basketball, football, baseball and soccer suffer more injuries than in BMX racing. The reason why, perhaps, is that USA BMX requires protective gear. You can’t go on the track without it. While the level or amount of safety gear is up to you, a rider must at least sport the basics of an approved helmet, long sleeve shirt and long pants.
Below, we introduce you to all of the safety gear that is available for you to protect every area of your body.
