Gate practice

[_bp]

Anyone know any area bmx tracks that have gate practice, where I don't need a NBL or ABA license?

What kind of riding gear is required?

Chesapeake BMX in Severn MD , You need a full face to get in the gate. Wednesday nights @ 6pm... They do not ask for a license

hey brian winchester is pretty lax about the licence thing but you need a full face/long pants and long sleeve shirt...let me know if you are interested I may meet you there. Later

Full Faces required for BMX now? Holy cow, I've been away for too long! Is the track sanctioned by the ABA or NBL? Also, have these sanctioning bodies recently change their rules regarding helmets? (Sorry do get off the point of the tread here.)

HAA HAAA! I guess you haven't closely read what I've writen in a while.

I was asking if they are REQUIRED. As in, MUST you wear a full face to be on the track, even if its JUST for gate practice.

nbl you must weat a full face or an open face with mouth guard....aba you can rock an open face as long as it covers the ears!

Thanks drt jumper, that's what I thought. Same rules as before.

Each ABA track has different rules, Chesapeake Requires a Full Face to race or take gate practice. You can ride the track w/o a full face as long as you do not expect to be in the gate when it drops.....

I think I am going to try and make it to Chesapeake BMX this evening, as long as work goes smooth.
