2023 NEW RIDER INFORMATION

Welcome to Stouffville BMX!  We are always excited to welcome new riders to our club and the track!

How does the track work?

If you want to come out and try the track, we offer a complimentary one day trial membership through our sanction BMX Canada (one use only).  You will need to contact us at [email protected] to obtain the link to sign up so we know when to expect you.  You can use the one day trial membership during one of our Monday night practices 6:30-8:00pm.  We also have loaner bikes and helmets for your first time out if you need equipment.  Availability is first come/first serve. 

What should I wear?

Please be sure to wear long sleeves, long pants, closed toe shoes and we also recommend gloves.  Full face helmets are required.  You can bring your own bike to ride, but please make sure they are free of pegs, chainguards, kickstands or any other attachments that might impede riding over the track features.  

Do you have bike or helmet rentals?

Yes!  We offer bike rentals for $8 per session and full face helmet rentals for $4 per session.    Rentals are available on a first come/first serve basis.  All equipment must be returned at the end of your riding session. 

What is the BMX Canada membership license?

Once you've had a chance to come and check things out, and you want to continue on your BMX journey, you will need to take out a regular BMX Canada license, available online, at an annual price of $85 for pedal riders and $45 for Striders (valid for 365 days from date of purchase).  This license gives you access to over 300 tracks associated with our sanction throughout North America.  A full BMX Canada license is required to participate in any of our Stouffville BMX club programming (Practices, Races, Clinics, Special Events). 

You can obtain a license on-line at https://www.bmxcanada.org
