Our Facebook group has updates including upcoming training, gates and racing, BMX items for sale, general club information and photos of some of the fun times had by our club members. Getting started in BMX doesn't have to be costly. You can start out on your street bike, wear long sleeved pants and a long-sleeved top, closed-in shoes and socks, gloves and a full-face helmet. The club has spare gloves and helmets to help you out in the beginning. Your street bike might need a couple of modifications for safety (removing reflectors, bells, pegs etc). We can help you out and get you started safely. To race you will need to have a current AusCycling license which you can purchase online at AusCycling | Memberships. Licences are compulsory before you can race. You will need at least a “Race Off-Road Licence”. Volunteering opportunities: Race nights cannot go ahead without Qualified Officials. This is an easy online course through AusCycling, and you will also need a Blue Card (Working With Children Check) to link to your accreditation. For more information please see Kate (Registrar). We NEED VOLUNTEERS to make racing happen. There are many roles you can help with to keep racing happening smoothly and keep your rider racing. Without volunteers we can’t take to the track and race nights will not go ahead. Volunteer Level 1 Official roles:
Staging (organising the riders for their race, calling out their gate)
Berms/Flags (communicates with the Starter that the track is safe and clear for the next race)
First Aid (assists any fallen rider, must hold a current senior first aid certificate)
Gate starter (operates the gate on the start hill)
Canteen (keeping the club fed and hydrated)
