Women’s Professional Motocross Championship (WMX) schedule for 2016 is announced by MX Sports Pro Racing, along with the AMA and participating race organizers. The 10-round WMX series begins in March and is composed of the Nation’s premier amateur motocross events and several races taking place in conjunction with the Lucas Oil Pro Motocross Championship.
The 2016 WMX Women’s Motocross Championship once again kicks off along-side Daytona’s “Bike Week” festivities on March 7 with the Seventh Annual Ricky Carmichael Daytona Amateur Supercross on the historic grounds of Daytona International Speedway. Following the season opener, the WMX racers will headline two other premier amateur motocross events, the Freestone Spring Championship on Saturday, March 19, and the California Classic at Pala Raceway on Saturday, April 9.
“The WMX Women’s Motocross Championship competition continues to grow, ultimately leading to the addition of two stops on the circuit,” said MX Sports Director Tim Cotter. “We look forward to hosting the premier women athletes once again this year and showcasing their talents to fans at the Pro Motocross Nationals.”
