There’s never been a better moment to get involved in Canadian BMX. Olympic prospects Molly Simpson and Ryan Tougas are helping motivate a new wave of young competitors, while the BMX Canada National Series gives riders the competition they need to grow and progress.

Hundreds of BMX athletes will gather at Heritage Park in Chilliwack, BC to kick off the BMX Canada National Series — The Fraser Valley BMX Nationals — the first of seven National weekends stretching from BC all the way to Ontario.

Over 600 competitors from Canada and the United States will take part on a purpose-built indoor BMX track as they begin their pursuit of National titles. The race format includes more than 100 motos, with riders grouped in heats of up to eight based on age and ability. Alongside the racing, attendees can explore vendors, team setups, appearances from Olympic hopefuls, and a range of food options available on-site.

Participants as young as two years old will compete on strider bikes, with divisions covering a wide range of ages and skill levels, including Superclass — the premier category featuring prize money for top finishers in the men’s and women’s divisions.

Admission is free for spectators, with racing running from Friday, May 8 through Sunday, May 10. The event is sanctioned by BMX Canada and supported by Tourism Chilliwack, Impact Canopy, Tangent Products, and Fly Racing. A full schedule can be found on the BMX Canada facebook page.

For BMX Canada licensed riders who have yet to experience a National event, a BOGO (Buy One, Get One) offer is available to help more participants get involved. Full BOGO details can be found here.
