Whistler’s BMX track

Bayly Park BMX track conversion project

Previously led by the volunteer-based Whistler BMX Club, the track and club catered to a wide range of abilities, from run bikers to beginner riders to national level athletes. The track closed in the spring of 2024. The RMOW will be taking over and reworking the existing track into a new Community Bike Skills Park for all abilities and ages. This project is meant to be a starting point with a more comprehensive park planning process to come in the future. Learn more about the project.

Funding

The land, as well as funds for track design and landscaping were contributed by the municipality from the Province of British Columbia’s Resort Municipality Initiative.

Funding for track construction has been raised by the WBMX Club., including primary partner funding from Whistler Blackcomb Foundation, The Spalding Family Foundation with American Friends of Whistler, Gibbons Whistler and BC Hydro/Tree Canada

Over 50 other business, individuals and organizations have also contributed to the construction of the track.WBMX continues to accept donations to help fund Club development and maintain the track.

More improvements will be made as funding and opportunities allow. This includes adjusting the start mound approach ramp and landscaping the area outside of the track. Landscape work will be done by the municipality over the coming months to integrate the track within Bayly Park and involve installation of low berms, hydro seeding and trees.
