The Malta BMX Association recently restarted its activities with the BMX Summer Fest at its outdoor track in Pembroke.
The event which was set up in a series of races around the BMX track saw a very encouraging number of BMX riders, skateboarders and mountain bikers from different age-group categories.
The BMX track never fails to provide exciting and breathtaking
racing as riders pumped their bikes into its ramps and berms in a show of speed
and skill.
The BMX association left no stone unturned to provide a safe and well-supported event with the aid of Red Bull, Alberta, BBB Cycling with the collaboration of Birkirkara St Joseph Sports Club, Rebel Riders, the Malta Mountain Bike Association, the Pembroke Local Council, and SportMalta.
President John Zammit, who has been heading the BMX
Association from its foundation, was satisfied with the turnout and level of
participation.
“Each year this event attracts a good number of participants
and despite the pandemic, we managed to hold a safe event following the guidelines
of the Health Authorities and it was a success which fills me with great
enthusiasm to work even harder for this sport,” Zammit said during the final
presentation ceremony.
