Press Release #1
January 6, 2005 – Vancouver, BC Canada

We're pleased to announce the dates for the 2005 Toronto Metro BMX Jam, March 4-6, 2005, running in conjunction with the Toronto International Bike Show. North America’s largest Pro/Am Freestyle contest series returns to the Ricoh Coliseum for our second year. The Metro series is now a street only contest, as we are no longer running flatland at our events.

A new Toronto Metro website is in the works, so as always, check back here for all the latest info, including rider lists, and announcements leading up to the Toronto Metro.

Local BMX shops will have booths selling parts, clothing, videos and shoes on site. Tickets are for sale only at the door. Pricing can be found on the Toronto International Bike Show website.
