Daudet & Post take the USA BMX Titles

Joris and Alise both wrap up the 2015 titles in style

Joris Daudet 2016 USA BMX Pro Champion

An American rider has not won the USA BMX ‘AA Pro’ title in a long time.  After nine months of epic racing it was a virtual points tie going into the 2015 USA BMX Grands. Connor Fields (7 wins), Sam Willoughby (8 wins) and Joris Daudet (7 wins and most podiums) who has had an amazing 2015.

Friday nights Race of Champions was all about Fields and it looked like the title would finally stay in the US. Sam was also firing on all cylinders but the French man in the mix did not look on top form! Then came the Grands on Saturday and a different Joris turned up, untouchable. All 3 mains went to Daudet making him the 24th USA BMX Male Pro Champion and only the second French man after his boss in Chase, Christophe Leveque won in 1999. Who would now bet against Daudet in 2016 … an Olympic year!

In Women Pro is was a little more cut and dry. Redline’s Alise Post has been dominate all year on the USA BMX circuit and was not going to relinquish her Number 1 title easily. Post wrapped up the Pro title on Friday night at the Grands with a win in the Race of Champions. In Saturday’s Grands mains the only rider to beat the Pro Women’s champion was Australia’s Caroline Buchanan but with a 2/1/1 mains result  Post wrapped up the season in style. Two years in a row!
