A Week of Training in Brisbane, Australia | World Cup Prep! by Quillan Isidore
In the vibrant heart of Brisbane, a tapestry of BMX brilliance unfolded as the world's fastest racers descended upon the electrifying tracks for rounds 3 and 4 of the UCI BMX Racing World Cup. While a brief respite separated the pulse-pounding action from the previous rounds in Rotorua, the anticipation crackled in the air as riders immersed themselves in the sunny embrace of Australia's summer.
With the 2024 UCI BMX Racing World Cup's six-round saga unfolding across these pivotal weeks, contenders steeled themselves for an epic battle to etch their names into BMX history. Saya Sakakibara of Australia and Joris Daudet of France emerged as frontrunners, their prowess poised to seize victory amidst the high-octane chaos.
Not much to say, I have to be better than I was. Lots of work to do.
