    The event had great success and Takahisa Fujinami (Japan/Montesa)/1990 Poussin World Champion) got the 2nd Places on Saturday and Sunday. It was very exciting competition especially on second day. Funami and Toni Bou (Spain/Montesa) finished with tie score. Finally Bou won with more cleans. And nephew of Fujinami, Yuga Ujikawa (BIU 2008 Poussin Vice-World Champion) did very good job. He did his demonstration (with wearing ALIEN suit/a CM character of Weider-sports supplements of MORINAGA CO.LTD. The main sponsor of the event) at many places in the venue of MOTEGI circuit during the event and he made a good promotion for Weider & Biketrial with his loving bike Monty 207Kamel in front of more than 10,000 people.

    Yuga Ujikawa passed the qualification of Team Japan for 2009 WBC China Ping Tang and he will participate to Benjamin class this year. Good luck!

  • DEMOTION RULE OF ELITE

    As we got e-mail from EBU about this issue yesterday, here is the explanation from Hiro about it.

    Actually we issued this rule about 15 years ago. Since then, we had only one time problem with a Spanish Elite rider and there was no any problem with the other. I think this rule is already understood by riders and delegates. About the confirmation of the list of ELITE 2009, I sent the list to the delegates of the countries which hold Elite riders (Czech, France, Japan, Slovak Spain and UK) and it was accepted by them before issue it. Now less than 3 months before the WBC, we should not change anything about rules. What we can do is to make our discussion about this issue in the BIU congress in August for the next season like always. That will be no problem.

  • Letter from BIU

    Dear Libor,
    Thanks for your thoughtfulness.
    About the matter, I think it is one major reason that we could not go on with UCI.
    Actually they do not understand the difference between Cycle race and Competition of Biketrial.
    Race is racing to be the first to goal than the other and do not want to help any other competitors.
    But Biketrial competition is a sport to challenge to same difficulties one by one and when somebody fell down, the other will help the rider sometimes. And when somebody made clean, other competitors will give a big hand for the nice riding. It is very friendly. This kind thing will never happened in race.
    They cannot mix it together.

    And balance and technical sport like Biketrial, riders should start in young age than road race.

    Race is dangerous to go over the limit sometimes by heat. But we have the rules to keep limit for the kids and check system of sections.

    Our sport is new. kids are very important for our future.
    See the situation of USA, there were a lot of young riders before. But since they changed system they lost many riders and now only some old riders and a few top riders. Only 3 riders took part in a competitions even 100 spectators come to watch.

    We should find best solution but the matter is something more important than they might thinking about.

    I asked an opinion to Pere and please wait.

    Sincerely yours,
    Hiro

    Ciao Libor,
    Il giorno 22 marzo alle ore 13,30 parte l'attivita BikeTrial Italia 2009.

    Dopo il successo ottenuto al raduno open del 1° febbraio ci sentivamo in dovere di ringraziare i partecipanti genovesi ( e non solo ) svernando in riviera.

    Grazie al regolamento 2009 e viste le caratteristiche organizzative liguri ci e sembrato giusto partire con una gara meno impegnativa di una prova di Campionato Italiano e quindi destinare la manifestazione ad essere il 1° Campionato Regionale di Bike Trial.

    Il luogo di svolgimento e il Campo scuola di Trial di Scarpino.
    L’attivita e agonistica per le 4 categorie che sono Minime, Junior, Senior ed Elite e che riceveranno le maglie di Campioni Liguri. Oltre a premiare i primi 3, da ricordare che la maglia la prendera il primo arrivato, per ogni categoria delle 4 menzionate, tesserato in liguria. Le altre categorie riceveranno gadget di partecipazione.
    La tassa di iscrizione sara di 10 euro per tutti i partecipanti che si iscriveranno sul sito www.biketrialitalia.it nella apposita sezione. Chi non si iscrive potra partecipare pagando 5 euro in piu. Coloro che volessero partecipare ai percorsi promozionali e sono senza tessera dovranno aggiungere il costo della assicurazione giornaliera di 10 euro.

  • Biketrial event in Kysucke Nove Meste, Slovakia
    New BikeTrial components were tried at the BikeTrial competition which was placed in Kysucke Nove Mesto, Slovakia at the end of the March.
    BikeTrial games contained two typical components - the high jump and the jump over the crossbar. The innovation was in implementation of the new type of section "WHO ARRIVE FURTHERMORE?" Sections were composed from the obstructions from the lowest level to the highest. Valued was: who comes furthermore and contact of the bike or foot with the ground meant automatically the end.
    In the small category Pousin riders got over 3 - 5 obstructions, Benjamin c. 8 - 10 obstructions, Minime got over 13 - 15. It was similar to the older categories.
    The total winner was determined by summing of placing. Competition was transparent and the moderator commented individual outputs. Feedbacks from the spectators and from riders were very positive. Mr. Lubomir Janoska would recommend to work off this system and use it for all indoor events, could be used for Indoor European Championships as well.
    Mr. Lubomir Janoska would prefer it before races like SPEEDtrial because it is closer to BikeTrial (balance, accuracy, assembly, techniques) Results are published at www.toptrials.sk

  • European Cup 2005
    The first event of European Cup took place in Poprad, Slovakia on September17th. There were 63 riders from 6 countries (the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, Slovakia, Ukraine and United Kingdom). It was the first time when Ukraine riders came to the international event. It is very positive because BikeTrial is very popular in their country( www.uatrials.com ).
    The event was placed both on artificial and on natural sections just in the center of Poprad in the beautiful surroundings of a modern thermal spa. Even though unfavorable weather, the organizers did great work and the cup had a high level of performance. I believe that this project will be followed through it the next yearsas well with such enthusiasm and so high participation.
