Beginner and Advanced Lessons
Black Mountain BMX hosts beginner and advanced rider lessons every week. Our schedule is built in order to give all of our riders the best opportunities for track time.
Our beginners have an opportunity to have three nights in a row at the track. With a practice, a clinic and a race every week, beginners will receive optimum track time to hone their skills.
Beginner lessons are every Thursday from 6:30-8:00 pm (unless otherwise noted on our social media platforms) and costs only $20. This is a great opportunity to get exposure to the track in a non intimidating environment. All riders are new and is usually around 30 participants. First time riders will be required to sign up for a one day membership. You can bring your own bike (removing the kick stand, chain gaurd and reflectors) or borrow a race specific bike for free.
Advanced Clinic lessons are every Monday from 6:30-8:30. This gives our more advanced riders an opportunity to train Mondays and Wednesdays before a national weekend. Advanced rider clinics are only $35.
Coach Karl and Bubba will explain gate starts, navigating the track/turns and proper bike stance.
Please arrive around 15 minutes before the lessons start to introduce yourself and your rider and be prepared to have a great lesson!
We highly encourage you to participate in one of these lessons before coming to a practice night or race night if you've never been. Familiarity with the track is important and we have found that riders who take advantage of these lessons adapt to racing quicker and have more success.
See you at the track!
