With only a few weeks to go, training for the Union Cyclist Internationale (UCI) BMX Supercross World Cup is in earnest. Three riders from Japan, Jui Yabuta, Jukia Yoshimura and Daiki Ikeda along with their coach, Masa Sampei, are in Australia for two months, preparing and training for the trials.
Jui is the number one female junior rider in Asia and Jukia is also the number one rider in Asia. Both are competing in the open classes for the competition.
The first three weeks of their Australian training was spent at the Bathurst Circuit and they will be in Shepparton until the end of the competition, heading back to Bathurst to compete in round two of the competition.
