The two days of Canada Cup racing begin on Saturday, August 29th, and will allow BMXers from across the country to earn some coveted UCI points and some Canada Cup points towards the ultimate goal of taking the title as the series comes to an end on Sunday, August 30th.

The City of Calgary and many of the local businesses are very enthusiastic and supportive about the sport of BMX. We are very proud to welcome the world to Calgary and have an excellent race," said Chris Bullivant, President of Calgary BMX.

We are confident that the riders will enjoy this event," said Mathieu Boucher, Performance Development Director at Cycling Canada.
