Hi Everyone,

Apologies for the late notice. 

We are starting to race this Thursday June 17th. This first race will be shaking the dust off, getting up to speed, whatever other metaphor suits doing it for the first time in quite a while. That said, this race will count for points.

Take note: we moved race day to Thursday because we heard back from a bunch of people that Wednesday was not possible. Apologies if this has made a conflict for you.  

COVID protocols are still in place. 50 people max in the track area and 50 people in the stands. Also maintain your social distancing and wear mask. 

No Concession. We will not be selling any concession items. Bring your own snacks and drinks. 

Here are the main points

 - Racing at our track is for NSBMX Club Members ONLY until further notice / full track only – no striders just yet.

- All riders MUST Pre-register via Square link here.

- Every rider MUST have a number plate with number

         - You can buy a number plate via squre during registration or set up your own following these steps for figuring out your number (plates are $10 and 3 numbers is $3)

- If never raced before it will be the LAST 3 DIGITS of their membership number

- If you do not know or if you are confused make sure to purchase a plate / 3 numbers and we will look up the correct number on race day. 

- Example Membership 1978704

Your plate number is 704
 

- If you raced pre-Covid your number will be the same one that you used in 2020. – You can check your membership account with BMX Canada here - look under plates in your profile. If you can’t find it, email us back.
