With the racing cancelled Tory Nyhaug interviews some of the riders and officials to explain the outcome.

The 1st heat of the 1st round saw the winner cross the line in 1st. Due to deteriorating weather conditions the event was called off after the Elite Men had run Round 1. According to UCI rules the fastest rider in the Round takes top spot. Women didn't race.

The day didn't start off all too bad in Bathurst with cloudy skies and moderate winds that didn't affect practice much. With the predicted weather conditions a decision was made to call it quits after Round 1 of Men and take the fastest times of each athlete to determine the results for Round 3 of the UCI BMX SX World Cup. Since Women had not raced yet, there will not be a result for Women for today's race in Bathurst. Better luck with the weather tomorrow. Fingers crossed.

Friday kicked off early with a press conference which had Sam Willoughby, Lauren Reynolds, Laura Smulders, Kai Sakakibara and Mariana Pajon talk about BMX racing to the local press in Bathurts, a small city three hours West of Sydney, Australia. The predicted rain showed up every now and then during practice and the announced wind made things challenging from the start at the massive BMX track in Bathurst. But with nothing on the line during practice, the riders took it easy in order to stay in one piece to see whatever the decision is that will be made tomorrow morning when the sun comes up. That sun might decide to stay behind the clouds all day as once again rain is on the schedule and more frightening; wind. But today is today, and tomorrow is tomorrow so whenever it is possible to make a start, the racing will happen even though it might be just to get a result in. FATBMX is present so we will inform you about the activities in Bathurst so make sure to check in.

For the moment it doesn't make any sense to show who did well during practice. Both 8 and 5 meter hills were used but no one did a full lap today on the downhill track that has three straights with double lines. It is possible that all racing will take place from the 5 meter hill and will take all three "easy" lines to get some racing in tomorrow. The live feed (on FATBMX) will also keep you posted so tune in for the latest from the UCI BMX SX World Cup.

Australia is in need for some serious rain after the bush fires, but it doesn't help with the planned UCI BMX SX World Cup in Bathurst this weekend.

The riders have all packed up and made their way to Bathurst for Round 3 of the UCI BMX Supercross World Cup Tour 2020. First up Round 1 and Last Chance Qualifier.

Last week, I found myself reflecting on what an absolutely RAD team I have around me to help me live out my childhood dream each and every day. From people who help me get from A to B to race to others who help me train and push myself to the limits, and those who simply help me to organise myself in order to focus on being the best athlete I can be, I am truly grateful for each and every person who has chosen to back me.

The partners that choose get behind our team and equally, if not, more important, and 2019 was an exciting year! We welcomed Trek Bikes, Kellogg’s Nutri-Grain®, Ride Concepts and Michram into our extended family, renewed partnerships with Fasthouse, Boost Mobile, Bell, Maxxis, Rubik3, FIST, SRAM, ODI, Oakley, Fresh N’ Lean and Knobby, as well as being given an opportunity to work with the likes of Mercedes-Benz. I'd like to take this chance to send out a HUGE wave of appreciation for all of my amazing partners who are backing me in this VERY special year!

2020 is shaping up to be the BIGGEST year of my professional career to date and... I CANNOT WAIT!
