Don’t forget to save the date, Monday 16 January 2023. We look forward to seeing you there.
Donate for the Head Shave
This years victim is: Shane Jenkins, the event founder
Put your dollars towards a good cause and as a bonus watch Amie Main from Hair Cycle claim another scalp. Shane’s been growing his hair for 2 years, and he’s grown quite attached to it, so you’re bound to get your money’s worth.
The BSX head shave origin story
The BSX head shave started just 5 years ago when Gary from ECI, one of BSX’s biggest supporters, asked Shane if he would shave his head should $500 be raised. Thinking it wasn’t possible Shane agreed, only to find out the $500 was surpassed in less than an hour. It has been an ongoing tradition since, helping to raise thousands of dollars and adding to the success of the already popular event.
Look out for more announcements coming soon.

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.
With 100% of profits going to charity the event has raised well over $70,000 for the Royal Children’s Hospital Foundation and helped raise thousands of dollars for the Kinglake West Fire Brigade.
The Profile BSX2023 will be a special event, marking the 18th anniversary of the backyard BMX bash.

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 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 $70,000 helping to providing the hospital with much-needed equipment.
