USA BMX is thrilled to welcome back our premier classes for the 2025 USA BMX Pro Series! This season brings exciting changes designed to enhance competition, improve race structure, and create a better experience for both racers and fans. With a new class, updated scheduling, and a fresh race format, the 2025 season is set to deliver non-stop BMX action to onsite fans and FloBikes viewers.
Increased Year-End Prize Money: Fueled by FloSports
Thanks to a new partnership with FloSports, the USA BMX Pro Series is boosting its year-end prize money by over $21,000! This means bigger rewards for competitors racing the entire series:
-
National No.1 payout increased to $12,000.
-
Men and Women Pro classes will now award prize money for the top 8 in year-end rankings.
-
Vet Pro year-end payouts will now extend to the top 5 finishers.
New Race Structure: No B-Main, No Quarters
The 2025 Pro Season promises intensified competition with a streamlined race format. To maintain consistency and excitement, each race day will feature a maximum of five laps. Points will be accumulated over three rounds, leading to semi-mains and a main event—and eliminating the B-Main. While rider counts will cap the race structure at semis, the Pro Purse will continue to scale based on participation. Men & Women Pro Supercross racing will maintain its fixed $10,000 purse.
