Japan's Yoshitaku Nagasako wins 5th National Championship title in a row. Seko wins Elite Women.
Yoshitaku Nagasako is Japan's fastest rider. He proved that this weekend by winning the fifth national championship in a row. The Haro rider who lives and trains in Switzerland at the UCI HQ, made the trip to Japan to defend his title and was successful in the not so perfect weather conditions. It's back to Switzerland now and then getting ready for the UCI World's in Zolder, Belgium in two weeks' time where he'll meet up with all the other fresh national champions on the gate.
After doing a BMX 'zine for ten years (1987 - 1996) FATBMX made it on the internet. The year was 1998. Here to stay.
