Who can compete at BSX?

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.

How to Enter for BSX

We have a PDF of the entry form (which includes most of the details for the event) for download, or you can enter online and pay either prior to the event or on the day.

Parking

Parking at BSX is very different this year.

We have a narrow driveway that’s about 800m long, but it needs to allow for 2 way traffic, please ensure you drive slowly and safely so we can avoid any unwanted delays.

All of the parking is onsite with no need to cross any roads, but we still need you to listen to the parking attendants to have you all parked with plenty of space and ensure that no one is parked in. Once you have parked your vehicle make your way to the front entry gate, located down the right side of the house. Wish wish you all a safe trip and look forward to seeing you on Monday.

What to bring

  • BSX is a flat pedal ONLY race, so bring your flat pedals and appropriate shoes.
  • Race gear is required as per normal.
  • Bring your deck chairs and tent, to keep you comfortable and sheltered.
  • Bring lots of money for event entry, raffles, auctions, and the BBQ.
  • Although 30°C and sunny is predicted be ready for all sorts of weather conditions, you never know how it might end up on the day. (Hat, Sunscreen, umbrella, ski jacket, you name it)
