Basics on Baltic Cup Foundation (BKF):

       
    Motocross has been one of the most popular sports of Latvia already for several decades. That is not based only on the success and traditions of Latvian motocross in the past, but also facilitated by the latest high achievements of Latvian riders in the European and World motocross championships as well as by regular organization of worldwide level motocross events in the territory of Latvia.

BKF has been organizing motocross events already for 21 year and has become one of the most active organizers in Eastern Europe. Our first motocross event was organized in autumn, 1992 and since 1996 BKF organizes World Championship events in Motocross every year.

Our internationally recocnized brand is motor centre „Zelta Zirgs” in Kegums, where every year events of not only national or Baltic level take place, but also European and World Championships in Motocross are held. Every Motocross event regardless of its measure is organized in such a manner that every motocross fan coming for the event in „Zelta Zirgs” gets the maximum of comfort , entertainment and enjoyment. In addition, moto centre „Zelta Zirgs” is daily available for riders practice.

Until 2008 BKF in motor centre „Zelta Zirgs” has been organizing World Championship events for side cars and MX3. However, since 2009 BKF has set a higher objective and reached a new level in motocross world by being an organizer of MX1 Grand Prix.

According to the opinion of many riders, officials and motocross fans moto centre „Zelta Zirgs” is among the best in the world, and MX1 GP Latvia in Kegums was one of the best events in MX1 World Championship. Main premises for that is the perfect infrastructure of the motor centre, clean surrounding environment and the exciting track which is considered also as one of the most challenging in Europe. Another advantages of the motor centre is the perfect visibility of the track, which allows all fans to follow the full processes of the event for 100%, and the excellent general organization of the event.

Approval of the said above is the agreement signed in autumn 2010 about the organization of Motocross of Nations in Latvia, in Kegums, in 2014!!!

Considering the international level and importance of BKF project, it is supported by Latvian Government, parliament and local municipalities in different ways.
