The term was originated in the 1970’s when kids started racing their bikes on dirt tracks in southern California. The origination was focused on the racing side of things with an emphasis on the jumping, speed and style. It wasn’t long until tricks started making their way into this new sport and a whole new genre of BMX was formed, BMX racing and Freestyle BMX. Racing is where it all began as far as BMX is concerned, while freestyle evolved as a new breed of riders started specializing in tricks and bike handling as opposed to banging bars at the race track.
As mentioned above, BMX stands for Bicycle Moto Cross. The term originally coined by those kids racing their bikes on dirt tracks imitating dirt bikes or motocross racers. However, the meaning has expanded quite a bit over the years and could mean a number of things.

They might even get into a little bit of everything.

Popularity
BMX originated in the early 1970’s when kids would mimic motocross races on their bicycles, complete with a number fastened to the front of the bike. They would take to dirt ‘tracks’ and race each other in a similar fashion to their motocross idols. As expected, the racing got more competitive, the demands on equipment became higher and more specialized, and subcultures naturally formed around street and freestyle BMX. Fast forward to today and BMX has come completely of its own, with BMX racing being UCI (Union Cycliste Internationale, the governing body of cycling), sanctioned and featured in the Olympic Games. Freestyle BMX has professional riders and teams supported by huge sponsorship competing at adrenalin-fueled events such as the X-games.

Two, no one sits on the bench. When a brand-new racer joins the sport, they race in the novice category. Everyone actively participates in BMX. Those tenets, along with society’s love of bicycling, has BMX on a considerable upswing. One major reason BMX has been thrust into the public’s consciousness is the massive exposure it receives from being an Olympic sport, a designation it has enjoyed since the 2008 games in Beijing, China. Couple that with the fact BMX is a staple at quasi-alternative competitions like the X Games, and it’s no surprise the sport continues to flourish.
