The FVMBA has been working hard to bring this 6 race indoor series to residents of the lower mainland and beyond and it all kicks off tonight at the Abbotsford Agrifair Arena (located at 32470 Haida drive).

It's going to be a six race season with the best three finishes and the final on Feb 14th deciding the series winners. Any ties will be broken by the final standings. Pro payout will be awarded at the finals.

Jerseys for the series winners are being provided courtesy of our sanctioning body, CyclingBC will be awarded Feb 14th.

There will be a concession by Abbotsford BMX and noisy, laughing stands courtesy of you. Bring your kids and better half's, as Abbotsford Indoor is alway family friendly. Don't forget that every Saturday night at 7pm and Sunday morning is BMX racing too!

Canada's only INDOOR bike racing and it's located in Abbotsford, going strong now for nine years.

See you there,
Gary Harder

 It's crazy who shows up at Abbotsford INdoor, Wade,Aggie,Gully and dj's galore. Anthony Messerie lived here for years as a BMX racer,and other Bmxers now mtnbikers like Gorzs etc. Laid back scene and the stands are always full of guys and girls smiling and panting at times. Man I forgot about Velodromes,video's will be posted after our first race nov 22nd for you to enjoy. more the merrier here,get the bike. Mr.G

 U.S. riders who want to race indoor at abby
A US athlete will have to:

- have UCI membership
Or

Plus all US athletes are required to have out of country medical.

 Two brothers Tom/Bas van steenberger? , pro riders traveled 5hours from Penticton to race.After they drove home,the younger bro won .
The night was electric,so those in wash. and we seen them drive out from Whistler,get out and check it out.
Competiton is ramping up last years winner Cam Murphy should be back for Jan as his smaller but fast bro Kyle keeps the Murphy name high in Pro's. Hoping to see Lars or Daniel Mazuti or you.

 Great start to the 2011/2012 racing tonight! Thank you to Gary and all the dedicated crew that make this happen. It is a great service to the community and a really great addition to a fantastic year.

Stoked on my 2nd place finish tonight the new track is awesome. Good for jumpers, sprinters, and long-haul truckers (like me) alike!

See you next week!

 Manchester BMX track??
  • 1 0
 True but manchester is quite a way to go from where I am

 I'd much rather just travel for an hour and a half to chicksands and get a bit wet and muddy rather than 4-5 hrs to manchester. I'd love it if there was an indoor one in the south but oh well.

 yea yea... the grass is always greener on the other side. A 4 hour drive to a race isnt even bad, thats usually how far I have to drive for each race
