The Iowa Bicycle Coalition Fundraiser Featuring BMX! This fundraiser will feature live music, food, drinks, and guest speakers from the local cycling community.
The Iowa Bicycle Coalition is hosting a fundraiser to support 80/35 BMX in their efforts to bring an Olympic-level indoor BMX racetrack and offroad cycling facility to the Des Moines metro area. The goal for this fundraising campaign is to raise $47,000 for a
comprehensive feasibility study.

The Goal
We hope to lay a foundation for an Olympic BMX program based in Des Moines, to attract national and world-wide events, and bring cycling industry jobs and tourism dollars to the entire metro area. Individual nationwide BMX events regularly have economic impacts for host communities in the millions of dollars and Des Moines is well-positioned to become a national cycling destination.
