Snake River BMX
Our History
Snake River BMX has been ridin' in East Idaho for over 40 Years. Stan Murdock helped create Snake River BMX in the late ’70s and since then, the community has exploded with riders ages 1 to 65.
The track has been located in three different locations in Idaho Falls and in 2022, we began leasing a beautiful new spot at Sandy Downs, a recreational property owned by the City of Idaho Falls.
Our facility is huge with over 500 parking spots! Our track is 1,200' long, offers and is big enough for a National & Gold Cup Final! We even offer dry overnight camping.
The hard work on our new track paid off and we earned the Idaho State Final Championship Race in 2022 & 2023.
​
Snake River BMX is a 501c3 non-profit that is entirely operated by volunteers and funded by donations. Thank you for your support!
