Come and Try Day at Bundaberg BMX Club
If your kids have been watching BMX riders and wondering what it's all about, or if you've been curious yourself, there's a free way to find out this January. Bundaberg BMX Club is opening its gates for a relaxed morning where newcomers can have a go on the track.
The Come and Try Day is on Saturday 16 January 2027 from 8am to 11am at Bundaberg BMX Club, 2 Airport Drive. BMX is ridden on purpose-built tracks with rollers, jumps and banked corners, and there's no need to know how to race or jump to take part. An accredited club coach will run the session in a friendly, supportive setting, helping newcomers build confidence on their first ride. It's free, with no experience or membership needed, and all riders aged 2 and over are welcome, from balance-bike riders to children, teenagers and adults. Riders should bring a bike, helmet, long-sleeved shirt, long pants, fully enclosed shoes and full-finger gloves, and a limited amount of loan gear is available.
The club asks riders to let them know they're coming, so they can prepare. Please email the club registrar, Bianca, with each rider's full name, date of birth, gender, contact mobile number and email, an emergency contact's name and mobile number, and a parent or guardian's full name if the rider is under 18. Signing up on the day is also accepted, so allow time to fill in a little paperwork before heading onto the track.
Trying a new sport in a welcoming setting can build confidence, coordination and friendships, and BMX is one the whole family can enjoy together. Families who enjoy the morning can ask the club about a 30-day free trial starting in Term 1 of 2027.
