IN 1980

• The sport of BMX is an adrenaline charged sport that
is hugely skilful, energetic and demands a lot of nerves.
• From just 4 years of age upwards, there are events to
suit everyone.

• Track Cycling is an exhilarating bicycle racing sport
held on specifically built banked tracks using track
bicycles.
• Whether you are a sprinter or an endurance cyclist
there is an event for you.

demands of cross country, the nerves of steel for
downhill or the technicality of cyclocross, off-road
has so much to offer.
