BMX (Bicycle Motocross) 

In 2009, Waterford Oaks County Park celebrates 35 years of BMX. The fast-paced sport of Bicycle Motocross racing is a great competitive activity for all ages.

The .25-mile championship Waterford Oaks track hosts state and national races. Waterford Oaks hosted the prestigious 1994 Odyssey Redline UCI World Championship of BMX.
