The Quarteira BMX track is the venue chosen for the final of the Liberty Seguros Portugal Cup, which will take place this Saturday, June 2, at 14 pm. The growing competitiveness of the national BMX is evident in the classifications, since the result of the Cup remains undefined in all categories.
It is expected that the emotion will be particularly intense in the main categories – elite, juniors and cadets -, where the punctual differences, at the entrance to the decisive stage, are more scarce and prone to turnarounds.
After the Cup winners have been selected, the consecration arrives the following day, albeit in the form of a new competitive challenge, the fourth BMX Portuguese Open, which will also take place in Quarteira, at 9:00 am.
In regional calendars, the road aspect stands out, with three races in two days. On Saturday, the Jerumelo Circuit, the first competition of the Lisbon Trophy for cadets and juniors.
Still in the vicinity of Lisbon, the XXIX Circuito de Mato-Cheirinhos takes place on Sunday. At 9:30 am the school tests begin, with the afternoon reserved for the cadet races (14:00) and junior races (15:45).
