BMX Motorhome Campus : Medium - 6 - 9 Metres

2023 UCI BMX Racing World Championships

The UCI Cycling World Championships are coming to Scotland in August 2023. Sportive Breaks are the official fan and amateur participant travel and experiences provider of the 2023 UCI Cycling World Championships in Glasgow and Scotland.

BMX Racing Challenge Classes at the Glasgow BMX Centre, Knightswood

The 2023 UCI BMX Racing Challenge World Championships will be hosted at the Glasgow BMX Centre in Knightswood, Glasgow as part of the first ever multi-discipline Cycling World Championships, taking place throughout Scotland between 3 – 13 August. The BMX Racing Challenge World Championships competition will take place from Sunday 6th August to Wednesday 9th August, with training days prior to competition.

These Championships, featuring 13 World Championships across 7 disciplines including Track & Para Track Cycling will be the biggest showcase of two-wheeled action that the world has seen. It will also be the first time the BMX Racing Challenge World Championships have come to Scotland, taking place at the same venue that hosted the 2018 European BMX Championships. 

The World Championships are the one-off, single chance to win World Champion medals and coveted rainbow jerseys, with all riders representing their countries.

About BMX Racing

The Glasgow BMX Centre is a hugely technical track with massive jumps and berms, specifically built for the 2018 European Championships. The track is 400m long and only 5m wide – riders will line up 8 abreast on the 8m high start gate before it drops and they are off at crazy speeds!

The first two straights feature huge jumps, massive doubles and triples that will see the riders soaring through the air shoulder to shoulder. Rounding out the berms, the first rider into the first corner – also known as a berm – will take the holeshot and go into pole position for the second straight. By the third and fourth straights the jumps become smaller and riders will be using their exhausted bodies to ‘pump’ through the rollers and carry as much speed as they can as they lunge to the finish line. 

At the start of competition, all riders will take part in three qualifying heats called ‘motos’. From these, the fastest riders will progress into Quarter and Semi-Finals and then on to the Finals – the fastest 8 riders all battling for the highly prized rainbow jersey. 

Expect thrills, and spills, in these hugely fast and competitive races for everyone from 8 years old up to 50+ years old!
