Celebrating the Legacy of BMX in Florida – 50 Years Strong
The Florida BMX Foundation is thrilled to officially announce the 2025 class of inductees into the Florida BMX Hall of Fame! This year’s honorees represent decades of passion, dedication, and impact on the sport we love—from pioneers who built the early framework of Florida BMX to the racers, officials, and industry icons who’ve pushed it forward.
This special 2025 induction marks a milestone year, as we honor those who’ve shaped BMX in Florida over the last 50 years. After months of data collection, interviews, and review from over 20 of the sport’s most respected voices, we are proud to present a powerful list of contributors across seven categories:
