Motocross has garnered more fans in China after the Motocross World Championship, the most influential of the sport's events across the globe, hosted its annual showcase at the China International Import Expo in Shanghai for two consecutive years from 2020 to 2021. The event entered China for the first time in 2019, filling the gap of firstclass motocross events in the country.

With the rising popularity of the sport,more young Chinese are getting involved.Influenced by their parents, many Chinese youth began learning about the motocross when they were very little. It is hard to imagine a group of preschool children racing around dusty courses on the motorbikes. But that's exactly how more youth are beginning in the sport.

Hu Minghao started learning how to ride a motorbike at the age of 4, following his father Hu Zheng. The father put his little son to receive a formal training three years later. “My son likes motorbike riding just like me. To let him ride it safely, I registered him at a club to get professional motocross knowledge and training. This can also help him learn how to deal with difficulties he faces in his life,” said Hu Zheng.

Li Jingxin, a motocross coach from a Beijing motocross club, said more children have been learning motocross since 2017. “Parents hope their kids can learn the sport in a safe way so many of them send their children to clubs for professional training. At present, we have 30 children members,” Li said. Those who gallop on the field may become the shining stars on the international competition stage someday.
