Congratulations to Yu Shoji taking home the rainbow jersey to Japan with a huge win here at the UCI World Championship here in Glasgow, Scotland! Yu was followed on the podium by Kio Hayakawa and Matthias Dandois. Amazing level in the final, with everyone throwing down for the title.
Paulo Gepulango came through with a great edit from the UCi Asian Flatland Championships a few weeks back out in the Philippines. Moto Sasaki came out on top, followed by Masato Ito and Toon Pakphum, well worth a watch! It’s heating up before the UCI Worlds in Glasgow, just a week to go!
Congratulations to Yu Katagiri, winner of Round 1 of the Japan Cup followed by Yu Shoji and Masato Ito. The contest took place at Oasis21, you may remember the venue from one of Bobby Carters Diversion videos. Hopefully some footage soon.
The Chimera A-side finals will go down as one of the best contests I have been to, the level of riding during the finals in particular was absolutely off the charts. There were some heated battles during that journey to decide the winner, Yu Katagiri and that 360 bike flip line at the end showed no mercy. Laying it all on the line for the 100k prize money. Flatland needs more of this… cracking edit that needs to be watched, congratulations also again to Carin Hommura, winner of the Womens class!!

I’ve been sat on these clips on my phone for a few months now, rather than dump them for no one to see. I thought I would try my hand at a raw edit filmed in practise in between judging duties, from the Fise Montpellier event featuring Yu Shoji, Sietse van Berkel, Matthias Dandois, Kio Hayakawa, Toon Pakphum, Masato Ito, and Moto Sasaki.
Enjoy!
