Historical context

Boulder BMX – Double Points Race 1st Place Award Tin

This 1st Place award tin was earned at Boulder BMX, a track sanctioned by USA BMX, during a Double Points race event. Double Points races award competitors twice the normal number of points toward their seasonal standings, making these events particularly valuable within the BMX racing series.

Because of the increased point value, Double Points races often attract a strong field of competitors seeking to improve their rankings within the season standings. Wins at these events represent significant accomplishments for riders working to advance within regional and national BMX competition.

Artifacts such as this award tin represent the competitive milestones achieved within local and regional BMX race programs, which serve as the foundation of organized BMX racing.
