"RIDE" is a training/grassroots program supported by 'RIDE' BMX RACING COMPANY (Bike Shop). Owner/Founder, Rocio (RC) Colon created this program with the purpose of motivating, supporting and mentoring the new BMX generation, as well as, support all sports in general which are really important in a kid's development. RC is an old school BMX rider herself with over 23 years of experience. She has been in the sport for many years, you can click here to see some of her accomplishments. RC feels that the old school riders have a lot to offer to the sport, but especially a lot to offer to the new generation getting involved in the sport. RC's passion for BMX racing goes beyond her own racing goals and she wants to contribute and keep motivating young kids into becoming better riders and better people.
Physical activities and consistent training teach kids so much more than they could ever imagine. According to RC, a combination of perseverance, dedication and discipline is the key to success, which is the reason why she would like to continue to emphasize the importance of BMX racing and sports in general.
We travel to Local/Regional/National races and we will also be attending/covering/coordinating local events/clinics mainly in the VA/MD area. We support and provide kids and new talent with FREE clinics and equipment and they walk away with FREE stickers and products. It's time to give back to the sport and we are focused in our mission of supporting KIDS without the money to race, buy new equipment or without sponsors and we are making it happen by providing a healthy environment for the kids to learn and have fun while performing the sport they love... "BMX Racing".
RIDE mentoring program has its own group on facebook located under Sports & Recreation, Extreme Sports. All content is public and we would like to invite everyone to join us and have a fun RIDE with other BMX riders and other great people involved in sports. We have games and prizes often, so let us take you in a fun RIDE while learning!
