The racing was fast and furious on Saturday at the 2014 USA Cycling Amateur BMX National Championships in Albuquerque, N.M. In all, 38 Stars-and-Stripes jerseys were awarded to riders in both the cruiser and challenge classes, with age categories ranging from five to 30 and older. Albuquerque’s Duke City BMX hosted the day’s racing, which was part of the USA BMX Spring Nationals weekend. In addition to a national championship, riders also competed for spots on Team

USA at the 2014 UCI BMX World Championships in Rotterdam, Netherlands, to be held July 22-27.

This event is the third BMX national championship of the year. USA Cycling’s Elite BMX Nationals were held in March, and the Collegiate BMX Nationals took place in April. Most of today’s competitors will continue racing on Sunday in the Spring Nationals. Fans can tune in to live audio brought to you by USA BMX at www.usabmx.com/webcast. You can also find updates from the races on Twitter at @ABABMX or on the USA BMX Facebook page.
