Kumamoto Yoshimuta XCO: Sunday race times for Philippine fans

Kumamoto Yoshimuta International is scheduled to turn to XCO racing on Sunday, 18 October, at Yoshimuta Kogen’s Midori no Mura in Mifune, Japan. The Asian Cycling Confederation lists the 17–18 October weekend in its Asian Mountain Bike Series calendar.

For Philippine fans following the day, the organizer’s provisional timetable puts the women’s elite and junior races at noon Japan time: 11 am in the Philippines, or 2 pm in Sydney. The men’s elite and junior races are scheduled for 2 pm in Japan: 1 pm in the Philippines, or 4 pm in Sydney. These are scheduled starts, not confirmed results.

Saturday’s programme listed XCC at 4 pm. No Saturday classification has been verified for this preview, and no winner or Philippine entrant is asserted.

Race entry has closed: the organizer’s window ran from 17 August to 30 September. Race-day license control is distinct from a new entry opportunity.

The organizer also warns of roadworks between Ueno-Yoshimuta interchange and the venue, including alternating traffic sections. Check its current notices before travelling. No livestream has been verified.
