With the BMX World Championships being hosted in NZL, there has been some excellent Media coverage already circulating in various National Media, Publications and in a number of Community Based Newspapers, which is all very good in exposing the Sport of BMX to the wider community.
Ian Hepenstall, the UCI BMX World Championships Media Manager has been doing a stellar job in achieving contacts within the Media Organisations in seeing them use the BMX World Championships and Rider stories in their respective presentations.
BMX is being presented in the TV Media and following is the schedule of upcoming TV coverage, of which we will be interested in viewing.
This TV exposure will further promote the Sport and will attract more spectators, bolstering ticket sales, into the Vector Arena to enjoy what will be a spectacular event being hosted over the next week. We understand Poppa Rika will be on 7 Sharp this evening.
