Over three days this past weekend, Squamish BMX hosted over 500 riders for the Sea to Sky Nationals, one of four Canadian events sanctioned by the American Bicycle Association.

Riders from as far away as Texas took part while local riders from Sea to Sky, where BMX is exploding in popularity recently, were also represented.

It was the biggest BMX event so far for the Squamish club, and took a huge amount of effort to pull together. But with children pulling their parents into the sport as volunteers and racers, there was no shortage of support.

The first day of racing was a pre-race event, with the nationals taking place on Saturday and Sunday.
