Bridge Program Enrollment
Congratulations on your rider’s invitation to the Indiana BMX Bridge Program!
Use the form below to enroll your rider in this next-step program, exclusively for League graduates.
Starting: June 12, 2021 Coaching 4PM-5PM; Practice and Racing til about 8:30PM
Sessions: June 12, 19, 26, July 3, July 10
As the name implies, the Bridge program acts as a stepping stone between the “structured participation” of League, and the more free-form nature of “Open Racing” in the Novice class.
The $179 tuition includes five weeks of coaching and Novice class race fees. Part one of the coaching runs from 4:00 to 5:00PM, which is exclusively for Bridge participants. At 5PM, the gates open for our evening race, and Bridge coaching continues for another hour, during the Open Racing practice session.
At roughly 6:30PM, the race begins, and Bridge riders race the regular Open Racing program, with continued tips and encouragement from the coach.
Unlike League, moto numbers and age groups will change from week to week, depending on who signs up for that particular night (Bridge riders race within the regular Novice class). Racing usually concludes by 8:30PM, but can vary depending on the number of riders who sign up that particular day.
On the first day, as Bridge riders are receiving their first coaching session, Parents will receive an “Open Racing Orientation” so they understand how Open Racing works.
Beyond that first day, the Bridge coach, and track management will be available to answer any questions you may have on the format, rules and other nuances of Open Racing.
Riders cannot race League and Bridge at the same time, and once they step-up to Bridge, they cannot return to League.

What to wear: Unlike League, riders do not receive a jersey as part of their enrollment, and can wear their former League jersey, a racing jersey, or any long-sleeve shirt. Same for pants: Jeans or racing pants, as you please. We have discounts available on bikes and racing gear for Bridge riders, as we do with League.
Use the form below to sign up and handle your $179 tuition.
Bridge is capped at 20 riders per group. Please sign up and handle your tuition now so we know you’re “in.” Entries not completing the tuition payment will not be counted as enrolled, and you may lose your spot.
