Elite Cruiser races finish off the UCI BMX Worlds

The final Elite Cruiser races were a spectacular way to finish off a great weekend of World BMX racing. Fausto Endara (ECU) crossed the finish line in full throttle excitement to capture 1st place in the Jr. Cruiser class. Magalie Pottier (FRA) was thrilled to have achieved her goal of winning both the Jr. Girls BMX and the Jr. Girl's Cruiser event. In the Women's Elite class, it was 19 year old Sarah Walker who walked away with the gold medal. She had an incredible race finishing far ahead of her competitors. This was a double crown win for Walker who yesterday, captured the silver in Elite women's BMX. In Men's Elite action, it was Johnathan Suarez (VEN) who was all smiles as he paused for the cameras. He edged out Danny Caluag (USA) to win the W1 Cruiser title. Caluag received the silver medal and Kevin Batey (GBR) took home the bronze.
