2017 USA BMX Gold Cup Series presented by DK Bicycles
Location of Regional Finals Announced
USA BMX and DK Bicycles are pleased to announce the final locations of the 2017 Gold Cup Finals. With six regions encompassing the United States and Canada and over 75 qualifying races, the Gold Cup series has grown into one of the best-attended series in USA BMX.
In 2016 each of the finals continued to grow, even though three more locations were added. "The Gold Cup Series has always been a regionally based series. By increasing the number of regions, we increased the access and affordability to compete for our membership," said BA Anderson, CEO USA BMX.
The Gold Cup Series presented by DK Bikes involves a rider counting his/her best two scores from Gold Cup events, per the Gold Cup/State/Provincial Points Table, and his/her scores from Saturday & Sunday at the Gold Cup Final. Riders may race a Gold Cup Final in any region; however, may only earn a number plate in one region.
In addition to awarding a Gold Cup jacket and No.1 plate to the winner in each age & skill level, we also award Gold Cup No.2 & No.3 plates. Finally, at the Finals, both Saturday and Sunday will also offer quadruple district points for riders.
