HOUSE RULES

THE Ipswich BMX Club staged a massive weekend hosting stage three of the BMX Australia National Series.

Hundreds of riders from around Australia and New Zealand flew around the Willey Park BMX track competing for points towards the national series.

The Ipswich club shone on and off the track with several local riders taking out the finals.

The committee and volunteers put on a spectacular event.

Well done to everyone involved.
