Australia’s queen of BMX Caroline Buchanan, is just one solid performance away from securing her second UCI BMX Supercross World Cup series in three years as the final event of the season gets underway in Chula Vista, USA this weekend. Buchanan has been in breathtaking form at times this series, racking up wins in Manchester and Berlin from four events to build an almost unassailable lead over her nearest rivals. However whilst her lead is substantial Buchanan refuses to rest on her laurels, leaving no stone unturned in her quest for success.
