So, I was checking the start list to BMX Freestyle's final tomorrow, and Anthony Jeanjean :FRA is the only cyclist from a country out the Olympic Ranking in the final. Then, it's pratically assecurated his quota to the Olympics. Once the Olympic Ranking is almost defined with :RUS:USA:JPN:VEN:GBR:AUS getting quotas through it.  Kenneth Fabian from :CRC is the second highest cyclist and he is also, pretty close to get the second ticket to Tokyo.

 

On the women's competition there are five cyclists disputing directly the Olympic quotas in the final. They are representing :FRA:ESP:CHI:ARG:AUS

Women, according to the UCI Site:

 

1. Hannah Roberts :USA 

2. Macarena Perez Grasset :CHI 

3. Charlotte Worthington :GBR 

 

Quota Places for :USA and :CHI. And depending on who will win the ranking quotas ( :USA for sure) next in line are in that order :GBR:GER:SUI:AUS:FRA:ARG 

 

Men's result

 

1. Brandon Loupus :AUS 

2. Martin Logan :AUS 

3. Nick Bruce :USA 

 

Quota places right now for :AUS and :USA. Next in line after the ranking quotas are distributed (and considering that :JPN has the host quota) are :RUS:VEN:GBR:FRA:CRC:ECU

Womens' competition it's not defined yet. Once the Olympic Ranking may be a few changes till the last update. However, the Olympic quotas through this championship likely go to Macarena Perez :CHI and Natalya Diehm :AUS

 

 

The same situation at men's competition.Very probably Anthony Jeanjean:FRA get his quota. The second may go to Daniel Dhers :VEN or Kenneth Fabian :CRC. Eventually both will get their quotas through Olympic Ranking, this championship or the extra spot if Japan qualifies by Olympic Ranking.

Man the men’s 26 trials competition was awesome. I really enjoy watching trials. You can’t go wrong watching cycling, it’s all good.

Let's make a looby for Trials becomes an Olympic Sport :clap:

Not nearly enough countries, but it should be in something like the Urban Games or World Games. I don’t know what the UCI has against the World Games, but it’s a shame they won’t like these disciplines try there luck there. Trails would be a great inclusion at something like the European Championships or European Games too.

My definition of awesome is decidedly different from this. This makes no sense to me as a sport, really. Even kinball seems more interesting.

Alright captain positivity :p. Trials reminds me a lot of climbing and a few other sports I love, so that may be why I like it. It’s also just something rather unique, and it’s fun to see the crazy things people can do with a bike. Kinball is king of course. It seems to formed a sort of cult presence on the forum :d

Trials is in the BMX Freestyle championships? :yikes: It's definitely something different than freestyle..
