With the beginning of the 2010 UCI BMX Supercross season just two weeks away, several National Federations are preparing the first leg on the BMX track at the World Cycling Centre (WCC) in Aigle, Switzerland.

The Spanish capital of Madrid will welcome the first round of the Supercross on March 26th and 27th and this weekend four nations sharpened their skills at the WCC. Some were preparing the race in Madrid, while for others it was a question of an early-season session to get the feel of the Supercross start ramp and track.

Making use of the WCC infrastructures at the weekend were riders from Germany (March 10th – 14th), Great Britain (March 11th – 13th) the Netherlands (March 12th – 14th) as well as 10 BMX athletes from the French Cycling Federation (March 12th – 14th).

This week the WCC will host BMX riders from the Czech Republic (March 18th – 21st), the Netherlands (19th – 21st March), Norway and South Africa (20th – 25th March). At the end of the month four riders from USA Cycling (28th March – 1st April) and five from the Australian Cycling Federation (29th March – 1st April) will train on the centre’s BMX track.

After Madrid, the UCI Supercross series will continue in Copenhagen (Denmark) on May 7th and 8th, Chula Vista (USA) on September 17th and 18th and Fréjus (France) on October 8th and 9th. A fifth leg in Monaco has yet to be confirmed.
