Description

Llynfi BMX Racing Track is a National Standard BMX race track on the former Coegnant Colliery site, just beyond Maesteg in the north of Bridgend County. It is run by Llynfi BMX Racing Club, a volunteer-run club affiliated with Beicio Cymru and British Cycling, races in the South West Region BMX Series and won Beicio Cymru Club of the Year and Event of the Year in 2025. You do not need to be a racer or a member to ride: weekly open sessions are pay-as-you-go with no booking, and riders from age 3 to adults in their 50s and beyond use the track, so it works as a first go at BMX racing as much as for regulars training for the gate.

The Track

  • National Standard BMX race track, with gate-start practice in the club's training sessions
  • Open Track sessions: no booking, just turn up and ride. £3 for members and local riders, £5 for non-members
  • Coaching sessions run by British Cycling qualified coaches are pre-booked, and training sessions cover skills, fitness, laps and gate starts. Members get access to members-only coaching
  • Sessions usually run Tuesday and Thursday evenings and Sunday mornings from April to September, and Sunday mornings from October to March
  • The club posts each week's days, times, session type (open track, coaching or training), costs and track work days on Facebook and Instagram. Sessions depend on weather and volunteers, so check there before you set off
  • BMX race bikes and full-face helmets can be borrowed on site in limited numbers. If you bring your own bike it needs a working rear brake and no stunt pegs
  • Wear gloves, long sleeves, full-length bottoms and, if you have them, knee and elbow pads. Riders must be able to ride a pedal bike confidently, and sign the club's consent form before riding
  • Membership is optional and comes through the British Cycling website: individual, family of 2 and family of 3 or more options, with discounted sessions and hire, members-only coaching and events
  • Races are age-group and experience based (novice, expert and elite) for women and men, on 20 inch and 24 inch cruiser bikes, in the South West Region BMX Series. The club also hosts a Regional round at its own track and has held the South West and Welsh BMX Championships
  • The track can be hired by clubs, schools, youth groups, businesses, parties and team events, with coaching, bikes and protective kit available: contact the club for packages
  • Check the club's website before visiting for current session details

Prices are correct as of October 2026 but subject to change, so check current rates on the club’s website before you visit.
