flag lapOk folks, thanks to everyone who came out to clean up the track on Saturday, shame on those who didn’t. This track is run entirely by volunteers and it would have been nice to see some more bodies out there so all the little jobs could get completed…next time I guess.

Be a part of the Langley Development Team!!

Thursday, June 10th, 2010

Our apologies for taking so long to get this going. Life has been hectic. Over the months, we’ve received several expressions of interest in this development team. There is no racing resume or pedigree required; we do want kids who’ll embrace what this team mission is all about:

The Langley BMX Development Team provides a BMX racing platform aimed at ensuring a fun, healthy, and educational environment for the amateur BMX athletes. The Team will emphasize enjoyment of the sport through fun and respectful competition; that promotes personal and athletic growth; that ensures that all of our riders have fun competing together as a team; where development of sportsmanship, leadership, character building, and camaraderie are prioritized. The ideal team members will be positive influences on their peers on the track, and carry that practice through off the track, and into their communities.

We’re having a meeting after practice (~7:30) on June 14th at the moto shed. This is our opportunity to brief the parents on team concept / vision, explanation on competitions / races (ABA nationals / BC Cups / PQR / Western Series / BC Champs / National Champs), clinics planned, volunteer positions required, and other tid-bits. We’ve set a sign-up deadline for June 16th. We must have sizes for JERSEYS selected by then. Jenn Perigo will have samples available to try on for size.top-guns-mens-longsleevetop-guns-jersey

Any questions, e-mail us at info@langleybmx.ca, or find Mike Meade or Jenn Perigo hanging around the track!”
