Getting started in BMX

Submitted by Chris Schumacher (not verified) on

Getting started in BMX is easy and here with a few tips in order to help new riders get started:

The first things you need:
A bicycle - any BMX type and size will do, but it is recommended that you start with one that has no more than a 20" wheel diameter - as that is the allowable limit in the Novice class.

Your Bike:
Make sure all bolts are tight - especially your axle and stem bolts.
Remove any freestyle type axle pegs.
Remove all reflectors/brackets must be removed for safety purposes.
If your bike has a kickstand, it must be taken off.
You will eventually need a numberplate. You will be provided a temporary numberplate with your membership purchase.

Clothing and safety equipment:
Long sleeve shirt.
Long pants or jeans.
A helmet. We recommend a full-face helmet. We have "loaner helmets" for beginners to use.
Any enclosed shoe is sufficient. Skateboard style shoes are suggested.

Now that you have everything ready, we`ll see you at the colorado indoor bmx track!
