Among the athletes is current BMX Freestyle World Champion Justin Dowell (Virginia Beach, Va.) and 2017 BMX Freestyle World Champion Hannah Roberts (Buchanan, Mich.).

 

“Both Justin and Hannah have had incredible seasons so far this year including winning last week’s World Cup in Montpelier and we want to ensure our athletes are as prepared as possible for the Olympics in Tokyo,” said Scott Schnitzspahn, Vice President of Elite Athletics for USA Cycling, “With BMX Freestyle making its debut in the Games, we are excited to provide them with the opportunity to gain experience competing in a multi-sport event prior to the Olympics.”

 

The BMX Racing athletes who will be competing include Junior National Champion, Emily Hayes (Colorado Springs, Colo.) as well as up and coming riders Cameron Wood (Avondale, Ariz.), Kamren Larsen (Bakersfield, Calif.), and Sophia Foresta (South Jordan, Utah).
