I’ve always enjoyed watching bmx racing but thought it’s too dangerous/uncomfortable to do — until I recently tried it with a group of girl friends. Yes you may get bruised and dirty but the adrenalin is non-stop! Of course safety and comfort depends on the terrain we beginners choose to do, but as long as we’re smart about the track, we won’t have to fall into rivers! =D I definitely encourage more girls to try it out. Goodluck at comps!
