BEIJING - Strap yourself in for a wild ride - BMX racing is about to make its Olympic debut.

Samantha Cools of Airdrie, Alta., will make history on Thursday as the first Canadian to compete in the Olympics in BMX (bicycle moto cross), a high-octane event that has its roots in southern California in the late 1960s, with teenagers riding modified, tricked-out bikes.
