Located on the westside of Evansville, Indiana in Burdette Park, Burdette Park BMX has been around since 1977.  The NBL Grand Nationals were held at Burdette Bmx in 1980 and a ten-man gate was used at the races. In 2001, Burdette hosted the BMX Pre-Worlds with riders from all over the globe.

Rated among the best and fastest BMX tracks in the nation, Burdette Park BMX hosts local racing from early April to October.  Burdette also hosts Indiana State level races and has held Midwest Regional and National three-day events which draw hundreds of riders of all skill levels from professional to beginners from all the United States and countless other countries.

Burdette Park BMX is a non-profit organization ran entirely by volunteers with an elected board of directors. Burdette Park Bmx is a fenced track facility with practices on Monday and Wednesday nights and Friday Night Under the Lights racing on Friday nights.  We also have a Summer Series racing every Monday night in June and July, and a Fall Sunday BMX Series racing every other Sunday in August, September, and October.

Evansville Mountain Bike Association 

Southern Indiana’s Chapter of the International Mountain Bike Association (IMBA)

This group is wonderful for connecting with other trail riders and learning about trail work days, group rides, weekend day trips, and fundraisers for area trails. Members of this group volunteer hundreds of hours a year to trail maintenance in the area. Without them the trails in the area would be a lot different. Consider joining EMBA and coming to trail work days! Most mountain bike trails are ALL VOLUNTEER built and maintained so every little bit you can give goes a long way.

Patchwork Central- Bike Shop

Patchwork’s Bike Shop provides bicycles for individuals who depend on them for transportation. We accept used bicycles that we re-condition in our studio before we give them away.

In addition to used bikes, we can accept new tires, tubes, and bike locks–the items that we need most often to make a donated bike roadworthy and safe.

The bike shop is coordinated by Pete Emery and is open most Tuesday and Thursday mornings.
