BMX final round brings colour and fun to Hedland

The final round of Hedland BMX was celebrated with a spectacular colour fun run on September 18, as riders and parents took to the track, covered in paint and slime, to cap off a successful season. The season occurred over 13 Friday night rounds before the Saturday final and the 10 boys stood out as one of the most competitive divisions of the year. Saturday’s racing was dominated by usual suspects Bohdi Gregs and Ty Kilmartin, who finished first in the 15 boys and 16 boys respectively. Karratha visitor Nate Robinson gave the locals a run for their money as he took out the 13 boys and mixed cruiser divisions. Hedland BMX coaching coordinator Kate McLarty said the final round was a major success and praised the efforts of all the volunteers. “Thank you to everyone who helped make our final round so much fun,” she said.
