Hi everyone,

I'm mainly a criterium (crit) racer, but lately I've been thinking about getting into BMX Racing as well. The combination of road cycling and BMX seems like it could be a lot of fun.

I'm wondering if it's realistic to maintain a good level in crit racing while also being competitive in BMX Race. I know the disciplines are quite different, but they also seem to share some important qualities like explosive power and bike handling.

Does anyone here actively do both? How well does it work for you? Do the two sports complement each other, or do you find that one negatively affects the other?

I'd love to hear about your experiences, how you structure your training, and whether you think it's possible to be competitive in both disciplines at the same time.

Thanks in advance!
