As of 9:00pm Thursday evening we can rule out Option 1 of our contingency options. At this time our plan is to attempt racing on Saturday with a registration time of 5:00pm. We will at least register and drop one gate, per ABA Rules, before considering moving the race to Sunday. If the race is moved to Sunday, there will be two races. The ND State Qualifier will be the first race. Race times to be determined. Please let your friends know that FRIDAY'S RACE IS CANCELLED. Please keep checking website for further developments. Also, if the ND State Qualifier race is to be rescheduled, we will announce the new date shortly after the cancellation. The weekend of June 13th conflicts with another event so please keep checking this site. Thank You!
Contingencies for Upcoming ND State Qualifier
Well, Murphy's Law sure is threatening to kick in. The weather just doesn't look very promising. The current condition of the track, which has taken rain for the last three days, is very poor. Although there was minimal rain yesterday, as of 11:00 today, Thursday, it is still quite saturated. That being said, here are the options we are considering:
1. We get very lucky and the predicted storms miss us which leaves the schedule as is.
2. We get minimal rain over the next 24 hrs and only cancel Friday night's event.
3. We get the storms that are predicted and and try to race late Saturday (Maybe 6:00 or 7:00). If we attempt to race Saturday and it is determined after the first gate that the conditions are still too extreme, then we postpone Saturdays event and hold two races on Sunday.
4. If it appears that we simply took on too much rain, we will reschedule, preferable to the weekend of June 13th, 14th and 15th, however, details will follow.
Please understand we are trying to be considerate to the folks joining us from out-of-town. We will be updating this information and communicating which option looks best as soon as the weather gives us a distinct indication. Please keep checking back on this site and the Hotline at 701-793-8285. Thank you all very much for your patience.

Opening Night Excitement
As a West Fargo BMX Board Member I am pleased to announce that Monday nights racing event was awesome!! We had so many new riders that the registration area reminded me of bees nest. As the season progresses we will experience a huge decrease in the time it takes to get racers registered and motos printed. PLEASE REMEMBER: ALWAYS BRING YOUR UP-TO-DATE AMA CARD AS WE SCAN THOSE IN TO THE COMPUTER AT REGISTRATION. That way there are no entry errors or typing time. Please come back and see us again Monday, weather permitting, and we'll have a blast!
Remember also that we have a limited number of loaner bikes for new riders only. First time riders are encouraged to show up and ask for a bike. In the event we don't have enough bikes, the first time rider will have priority over riders who used one in the past.
See you all Monday night!!!!!
