Tagaytay City rolls out the red carpet for athletes and officials from eight countries who are seeing action in the 2023 Asian Cycling Confederation BMX Racing and Freestyle Championships set this Saturday and Sunday at the Tagaytay City BMX Park and the newly-refurbished and multi-purpose Tagaytay City Combat Center.

“Our warmest welcome to the athletes, coaches and officials for the ACC BMX Championships,” said Tagaytay City Mayor and Philippine Olympic Committee president Abraham “Bambol” Tolentino, who also heads the host national federation PhilCycling.

Riders from Indonesia, Japan, South Korea, Singapore, China, Hong Kong, Thailand and Malaysia pose a challenge to Filipino riders led by London Olympian Daniel Caluag, the lone Filipino gold medalist in the Incheon 2014 Asian Games, and former Asian Juniors champion Patrick Coo.

The freestyle competitions in flatland and park will be staged Saturday with national coach and athlete Renz Viaje leading the campaign.

The Asian championships are the second major international competition that Tolentino is hosting in Tagaytay City after the Philippine 30th Southeast Asian Games in December 2019.
