Lyndall Ellement

In the early 1980s, Western Australia was producing many champion riders, who were not only taking on Australia's best, but also the world. The Freemantle BMX Club was home to a young Lyndal Ellement, who, in just a couple of years of racing, would go on to win her first world title. In 1983, Lyndal was amongst the first ever Australians to win a world title in the Netherlands. This early success led to many local and national television appearances where she would promote the sport of BMX to youngsters all over Australia.

Lyndal would represent iconic brands such as Kuwahara, Echo Helmets and Vans throughout her career, and would go on to win a further two World Championships. Her second win came at the 1986 World Championships held in England, before winning again in France in 1990, bringing her World #1 tally to three. She won multiple Australian and Western Australian championships before retiring from the sport in 1992.
