Answer/SSquared BSX2020: Open Ride Day December 14
There’s now 42 days to go until the Answer/SSquared BSX2020, the 15th running of the unique one-on-one BMX race for charity.
For the first time in nearly four years we are running our first Open Ride Day at the original BSX track on Saturday 14 December from 12:00 until 3:00pm. Some might see this as a good opportunity to practice for the Answer/SSquared BSX2020, others might see it as a chance to have a whole lot of fun on the BMX bike.
If you are new to BSX it’s very different to any other BMX track. It’s built specifically for one on one match racing and is a real test of rider skills.
At the Answer/SSquared BSX2020 charity event we are limited by time and don’t have allowances for sprocket riders to participate at BSX2020. We encourage parents to bring the sprocket riders to our ride days. In fact we encourage you all to load your cars up with your BMXing family and friends and make a fun day of this rare opportunity.

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.
WHO CAN COMPETE AT BSX2020?
It’s a common misconception that BSX is an invite only event. This is not the case, everyone is welcome to join in on the fun and festivities.

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 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.
