Canadian Pro Tory Nyhaug will join the rest of the Supercross world cup riders for the finals in Abbotsford, B.C. in September. This will be the first time this event will be on Canadian Soil and will be an amazing experience for all who can attend.
With some hard work, blood, sweat and tears, the shell of our new moto shed was completed late last season. The inside is underway and should be ready to go for the start of the 2012 season!
It is very important to make sure your bike and gear fit you properly! If it doesn’t, you compromise your safety..and it kinda looks funny don’t you think?
A blast from the past from the 2006 Cochrane BMX provincial that moved to Morley Indoor due to Tornado warnings and torrential rain! It’s pretty neat to go back in time to see these Okotoks riders when they were younger..Can you name them all?
What better way to keep from going in 4 different directions? Go in the same direction! The Kroon family is a dedicated bunch and a huge part of Okotoks BMX! Click Here for a great story by the Western Wheel.
DROP THE GATE!!
Well, our 2012 season has begun! Our beginner clinic and garage sale went well. Riders were able to meet their new coach as well as score a few deals on gear.
Despite the chilly weather we were able to have our first race night last night. Woo hoo! Okotoks BMX would like to welcome all the new as well as returning riders. It was great to see so many enthusiastic faces. Thank you to everyone who braved the wind to come cheer them on.
Track Conditions
As most of you know our track is a public track and is open all the time. We would however, like to ask riders to please stay off the track if it is soft. This can leave big ruts that when dry are very difficult to get out and these ruts can potentially become dangerous for our riders. If you can leave a foot print in the mud then you will leave ruts. Thank you for your consideration.
