The sport

What is BMX racing?

BMX racing is a sprint on a bike with 20-inch wheels, a single gear, one brake and no suspension. Eight riders start together from a gate on a ramp up to eight metres high. First across the line wins. One small mistake at the start can cost you the whole race.

Support

Moving forward together.

International BMX racing takes a lot. Today my parents carry most of it, and I wouldn't be where I am without them. 2027 has 16 race weekends, and I pay for at least 14 of them myself. My goal is to take that weight off them and fund my sport more and more through my own partners.
