Hearing Accessibility

Thanks to a Volunteer at Lincoln Park BMX in Port Angeles, Washington, it was brought to our attention that multiple riders of all ages live with a level of hearing impairment. Volunteers in staging have voiced their concern of the need for assistance in this space, and beginning October 2024, Cycle Therapy Racing began our hearing impairment program to not only assist those in need but to bridge the gap between tracks and their riders.

A blue sign attached to a tree trunk reads, 'Is your rider hearing impaired? Notify track operator for assistance.' Behind the trees, there is a fenced area and a dark blue building with a green roof. The ground is covered with grass, fallen yellow leaves, and dirt. There is some greenery and trees in the background.

A huge thanks to USABMX, all tracks nationwide have received our hearing impairment packets. Please contact us if your track needs more stickers.

Making BMX More Accessible

Through support from USA BMX and volunteers, hearing accessibility packets have been distributed to all sanctioned BMX tracks across the United States and Canada.

These materials help track staff recognize when a rider may need visual communication or additional assistance. If your track needs stickers, packets, or more information about the program, please contact us.
