And also make observer school to educate staff and make riding school for kids for the first time ever. MEETING FOR 2009 WBC IN CHINA Mr. Hiroshi Hirano will be invited as the BIU official for the event of 2008 Ping Tang World Cup. During his stay (from 17/September to 24/September), He will check the venue for 2009 WBC and will have a meeting with the delegate of China and the officer of the government after competition. BIU 2008 CHINA PING TANG WORLD BIKETRIAL CUP The event will be held on 21/September in China as it was planed. This time, 34 best Chinese riders and some top Elite riders will take part the event. Unfortunately Dani Comas (2008 WBC Champion) will not take part because the date is crushed with EBU European Cup in the UK. Also Raul Gutierrez has work to do. But Kazuki Terai (the winner of 2008 WBC final round) and 2 Canadian riders, Jeff Anderson (4 th place in 2008 WBMC and the 2007 Canada Champion) and John Webster (the winner of 2008 Whistler TRIALSWORX) will take part the event. Even though the Canadian riders are not international Elite but they are in very good level that we can guarantee it. The delegate of China, Mr. Jason Dou is still trying to get some more international Elite riders from Europe and Asia, and also some good riders from Australia. Yesterday, Jason has decided to invite Yasutaka Shibata (2007 BIU Elite ranking No. 14) and now Jason is waiting for his answer. The event is just around the corner. So we have not much time before fix the entry. We are hoping the success of this event and hoping your support if possible.
