BMX, as a form of cycling, features eight riders starting from an 8-meter-high ramp, racing through curves, straights, and multiple obstacles. Riders choose either to land quickly for higher speed or to attempt higher and longer jumps (riders can soar up to 5 meters during the race), depending on the track design.
Yes, after hearing this description, you’ll realize that BMX combines spectator appeal, adventure, and risk — it’s a sport that will have audiences gasping and cheering in excitement. Of course, seeing is believing, and you can check out the amazing performances from riders at the sixth stop of the 2019 China BMX Cycling League.

Sixth Stop of the 2019 China BMX Cycling League.
Such a challenging sport—its organizer, Beijing Qiansen Sports Culture Investment Development Co., Ltd., also thrives on a passion for challenges and creativity.
In 2018, Beijing Qiansen introduced and launched the “Qiansen Cup” International Cycling Professional Race. Approved by the Union Cycliste Internationale (UCI) and the Chinese Cycling Association, this event is the highest-level professional race in Asia and has been included in the Olympic qualification series.
The 2019 competition featured a double-race format, allowing riders to earn double points. The results of this race will also determine whether athletes can represent their countries and qualify for the 2020 Tokyo Olympics. It’s certain that the men’s and women’s BMX champions at next year’s Tokyo Olympics will be among the elite who competed at the Aohan Banner venue.

As a professional sports industry planning, facility design, and construction company, Qiansen designed the Aohan Banner BMX track—the venue for this race—in collaboration with UCI experts. This includes track selection, design, calculations, and setup. It is currently China’s only Olympic-level BMX racing track in active use.
This venue not only meets the Olympic standards for international BMX races but also supports the development of a talent pipeline for BMX racing. China’s national BMX racing team has chosen this site for their training and competitions as they prepare for the Tokyo Olympics.
