The BMX Day Celebration & Ride!

Back on November 14th, 1970, the first ever competitive BMX race was organized by SE’s founder, Scot Breithaupt (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scot_Breithaupt) in Long Beach, CA. From its simple beginnings on a dirt lot in a vacant field in the early 70’s, BMX racing is now truly a global and Olympic sport with hundreds of thousands of riders and millions of fans worldwide.

In November of 2010, both the city of Long Beach, CA and the county of Los Angeles proclaimed an official “BMX Day” (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HMQqsSYMEHs) to celebrate BMX’s 40th Anniversary (http://www.signaltribunenewspaper.com/?p=8260)  This Saturday night on Nov 12th, riders from all across Southern California will gather together and ride all throughout Los Angeles to celebrate BMX’s 46th Anniversary.
