Every year we look forward to the Richmond BMX Flat Pedal Pro-Am race! They are going on year 9 for this one of a kind BMX race. It pits pros and amateurs together in a race where you can only use flat pedals. No clipping in!

Four BMX racers lean through a banked turn on a paved track, with Richmond BMX and sponsor banners behind.

With a $10K purse with equal pay structure for men's and women's open you knew it was going to bring out some heavy hitters like Chase's Payton Ridenour, Huffy's Carly Kane, BlackCrown's Gavin Stazetski and more! There was a normal points race going on in between the Flat Pedal races, a 14 & Under Flat Pedal Dash for Cash and a lot of raffles for a full day of BMX radness.

Three BMX riders in helmets fist-bump on a wooded track, two with small flags, smiling and resting on bikes.

We have a video of the semi's and finals coming very soon but for now enjoy the photos. Thank you to Richmond BMX for fun event and keeping BMX alive in well in Richmond, Virginia!
