See you there!

It was a great night for racing. We even had a move up. Let's welcome David Bellrichard to the intermediate class!

It's finally race day!

‼️Unfortunately we need to cancel practice tonight June 4th. The track is super wet with all of this rain. We don't want to damage it any further. Stay tuned! ‼️😢

With all the rain and more rain predicted please watch for track updates. ‼️

We are practicing tonight 6-8pm.

Unfortunately the track has taken on too much water and riding tonite will further damage it. Please watch for post for schedule change for Thursday.

Keep watching for updates regarding events at Crow River BMX .

We are canceling the events on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. Mother nature has not been kind to us. We want to keep the track in great shape for this weekend events. More information will follow shortly regarding camping and pit set ups. Thank you for your understanding.

We are out looking at the track, it is very wet. Depending on the puddles we will post tomorrow with a yay or nay for practice by 4pm. Fingers crossed for sun and wind🤞

We are hoping to practice tomorrow but it will depend on todays weather/rain and track conditions. We will keep updates coming.

Huge Thank You to all the volunteers that came out today. We couldn’t have gotten as far today without all the help.

We are hoping to race next week but we have more track work to finish first. Volunteers are needed to help finish straight 3 and 4 or we will not be racing next week. Gates will open at 9am Saturday 5/25.

We are working hard! We want to race!!!
Have a couple hours to spare this afternoon- come down and help get the track race ready.

If you are free Thursday nights this summer come join us down at the track! The more the merrier! This job can be split between multiple people! 😁

We have had too much rain and not enough time to work on the track. We will keep everyone posted of track work days and when racing will start. Stay tuned!

Thank goodness for a beautiful sunny day, thank you again for those that were able to make it out. It’s a great start and we’re on track to reach our track goals. But we have a ways to go and the more the merrier! 😉. Please keep check for notifications if you want to come out and contribute your time and energy to this amazing organization.

The track did dry just enough to do some dirt work today. If you’re free and would like to help, bring your shovels. 💪😊

Thank you to those who came out today to help. Unfortunately, the track is too wet to continue track work tomorrow . We will post when the track is ready to start dirt work again.
