Olympic silver medallist Sarah Walker is confident she will be on the start ramp for next week’s UCI BMX World Championships in Auckland. Walker still has her arm in a brace after suffering a hairline fracture of her radius after a crash racing in the United States recently. The 25 year old plans to be back on her bike this week and is determined to compete in the world championships in her home country from 24-28 July. “If it was not in New Zealand then I would probably consider skipping it because of the injury,” Walker said at a World Championship promotion at Sylvia Park at the weekend. “This is the first time the worlds have been in New Zealand and most likely it won’t be back here while I am still competing. I’ve raced 10 straight years at the world championships and it would suck to miss the 11th one when it is here in New Zealand.” BikeNZ’s BMX Coach Ryan Hollows said the fracture is healing
