    Fast and thrilling, BMX was a huge hit on its Olympic debut at the Beijing Games in 2008.

    Over a series of qualifying heats, riders have to navigate a course full of humps, bumps and jumps while trying to outmanoeuvre - and avoid crashing into - their opponents.

    The drama is heightened by a winner-takes-all, one-run final.

    BMX has come along way from the skate parks and dirt roads it was first popularised on in Britain in the 1980s.

    Anyone looking to replicate the competitors' adrenaline-fuelled moves can do so on the Olympic Park: the track is being reopened to the public.
