Duke City BMX gets Olympic style ProGate!

Attention Riders, Parents & Fans,

Construction dates have been set for the installation of the Olympic style ProGate at Duke City BMX.

Our sanctioning body the American Bicycle Association (ABA) has approved Duke City BMX as the first location in the country the use of the ProGate on a perminant basis. This is an incredible upgrade to use a simular precision gate like the one used in Bejing at the 2009 Olympics for BMX competition. This improvement will eliminate the sound of the dropping gate that we are all use to hearing.

In preparation for the installation of the new ProGate we aniticpate closing operations for the following dates.

Wednesday February 24th

Sunday- February 28th


Wednesday- March 3rd


Sunday-March7th


Wednesday March 10th


Friday-March 12th


Sunday-March 14th
 
During this down time Board Member Ernie Olquin will be doing maintianance on the track. When finished our track surface will be back to top shape for the use of the new gate.
 
Please check back for updates.
 
Thank you.
