Meanwhile, thousands of BMX, skate, and FMX fans will be gathering in the plaza around various courses and replicas of iconic S.F. skate spots, like Hubba Hideout and China Banks (Portsmouth Square, Chinatown). The Dew Tour's now annual City Championships in S.F. follow the Beach Championships in Ocean City, Maryland in June, and the Mountain Championships in Breckinridge, Colorado in December.
