Answer/SSquared BSX2020: New Gold Partner BMX Victoria

Yesterday we past the 4 weeks until the Answer/SSquared BSX2020, that means there’s just 27 days to go until the 15th running of the unique one-on-one BMX race for charity that raises much needed money for the Royal Children’s Hospital.

New Gold Partner: BMX Victoria

We would like to take this opportunity to welcome BMX Victoria on board as a Gold Partner for the Answer/SSquared BSX2020.

BMX Victoria have been a huge supporter of BSX since the early days. Helping with volunteers, transponders, promotion and countless other areas that not only help the event run smoothly but enable us to maximise our efforts and our donations to the Royal Children’s Hospital each year.

Needless to say it would be difficult to run BSX without their assistance.

BMX Victoria had raised money for the RCH for many years. We are proud to join forces with them to support such a great cause.

What is BSX?

BSX, short for Bicycle Supercross or Backyard Supercross, is an annual event that started in 2006. Since then the one on one elimination race has hosted thousands of BMX racers, and even dirt jumpers, from all over Australia and around the globe.

Here’s a highlights video from the last event hosted at the Kinglake West venue.

With 100% of profits going to charity the event has raised well over $58,000 for the Royal Children’s Hospital Foundation and helped raise thousands of dollars for the Kinglake West Fire Brigade.

The Answer/SSquared BSX2020 will be a special event, marking the 15 year anniversary of the backyard BMX bash.

Just 19 days ahead of the first stop for the 2020 UCI World Cup

It’s also just 19 days ahead of the first stop for the 2020 UCI World Cup that starts a two hour drive away. We’re hoping to attract some elite riders who might spend a little extra time in Australia making the most of the weather that the Australian summer is famous for.

Don’t forget to save the date. Monday 13 January 2020. We will have more information for you soon.

ABOUT BSX

BSX (Bicycle Supercross) is one-on-one sprint trails style BMX racing on a backyard track built specifically to test a rider’s skills. The short straights, lofty jumps and tight corners are intense under race conditions, offering a fun and entertaining event for competitors and spectators alike. The event provides a unique experience for the local Victorian riders, as well as the interstate and international visitors during an off day of the annual BMX Victoria Track Attack series.

The primary goal BSX is to raise money for the Royal Children’s Hospital Foundation but there’s so much more to the event. It creates an atmosphere that words just can’t describe. Since the very first event in 2006 BSX has raised $58,712 helping to providing the hospital with much-needed equipment.
