Go BMXing Day is an event to celebrate the 46th birthday of BMX (officially on November 14), plain and simple it’s a social ride for lovers of everything BMX. It has no official ties to any BMXing body, it’s an organised but unofficial BMX social event.

Bruce Morris (Brisbane) and Shane Jenkins (Melbourne) are long time BMXers who are both so passionate about BMX you can hear it in their breath. When the two of them were discussing the world of BMX, life and everything else Go BMXing Day was born. In 2016 Aron Dean joined the team to run the first GBD ride in Sydney, which will be a ride to remember!

ABOUT GO BMXING DAY

Go BMXing Day is an event to celebrate BMX, plain and simple. It has no official ties to any BMXing body, apart from the two bodies that put their necks out to start something a little different, an organised but unofficial BMX social event.

Bruce Morris (Brisbane) and Shane Jenkins (Melbourne) are long time BMXers who are both so passionate about BMX you can hear it in their breath. When the two of them were discussing the world of BMX, life and everything else Go BMXing Day was born.  In 2016 Aron Dean joined the team to run the first GBD ride in Sydney, which will be a ride to remember!

The 2016 Melbourne and Brisbane rides will be held on Sunday 13 November and Sydney will be on Sunday 20 November. On November 14 BMX celebrates 46 years, so it’s only fitting that we find the closest weekend and roll with it.

If you want to get involved in the event, start a ride up in your local area or just generally talk BMX check out the website at gobmxingday.com or the Facebook page at www.facebook.com/gobmxingday

While you are at the website don’t forget to check out the riding spot locator, it’s a work in progress but is building up to be a great resource for riders looking for a place to ride.
