The Hawks BMX Club have been running since 1981, promoting the sport of Bicycle Motocross racing since it's early beginnings in this country. We are run as a non-profit organisation who's aim is to develop, organise and promote BMX racing in the Hillingdon Borough and surrounding area.

We currently operate from the Lake Farm BMX Track at Lake Farm Country Park, Dawley Road, Hayes. The track is public, free, and open for use at all times except during club events. Beginners are encouraged to come along to one of our organised events, where we can provide limited club bikes and safety gear, together with expert guidance to get you started. We are affiliated to British Cycling, who are the governing body for racing in the UK and form part of the Southern BMX Region.

The Hawks regularly host local and Regional races at our home track, and many of our members also represent the club at National and International level. There is usually a large contingent of Hawks riders at most of the big races and we also organise fund-raising and social events throughout the year. We hold regular coaching sessions during the school holidays, and one night a week during the summer months.

We currently have a membership of over 120 riders, a committee of 12 to manage the club and an army of parents, supporters and volunteers who help to keep the club successful.

Future plans for the track (subject to funding) include a full rebuild to National standard, the construction of a dirt jump area for various abilities, and a concrete skatepark, in partnership with Hillingdon Council, is now in the final stages. The overall plan is to combine all of the bmx disciplines within our venue.

We have successfully ran free bmx coaching sessions during the school holidays for the last two years and also purchased BMX Bikes and safety gear thanks to funding from the following groups, Community Cohesion & Local Childrens Network Fund.

We are always looking for new riders to join our club, both young novices and oldschoolers making a return! and if it's your kids that want to do the racing we always welcome the help of parents at our events.



The Hawks went into a partnership with Wycombe Wasps for a couple of years and then the offer of moving to Slough came along and we took it with both hands... Slough Swifts hosted the World's in 86 and the Euro's in 91, two of the biggest events to be held in this country to this day. Also the first Club to have a hydraulic gate with lights in this country and it still worked to the day we took it out and replaced it.

The first event the Hawks ran on the Slough track was the 96 British Champs and the following years the Club hosted Nationals each year and a second British Champs right up to their last major event @ Slough for the National over the Queens 50th Jubilee weekend in 2002... The Hawks have been National Club Champions numerous times and successfully won the BCBMX Club Championships at Slough and at Cheddar... One of the clubs greatest achievements was coming 1st-2nd-3rd in the Nat West Club Championships in the late 80's at Hounslow.

On a sad note the Hawks have had to cease operating from Upton Court Park,Slough in 2001 due to increased vandalism and motorbike use on the site and moved to Lake Farm Country Park in Hayes on a full time basis.

Now this brings us to the present and the Hawks after all those years have returned back home to where they started, Hillingdon, the birthplace of the Hawks. A place we can truly call our home, a place we can develop and grow and feel part of the local community.
