BMX Racing is fast and furious – with races typically taking between 30-50 seconds. Riders launch themselves from a gate atop an 8-metre hill for the elite athletes and often reach speeds of up to 60km/h. This discipline is all about explosive power and skill to hold speed around the track, which is usually 200-400m and incorporates a variety of jumps, corners and flat sections.
