    Kiwi BMX whiz kid Rico Bearman is feeling an extra boost from the home track advantages ahead of the BMX Racing World Cup in Rotorua

    Kiwi BMX whiz kid Rico Bearman is feeling an extra boost from the home track advantages ahead of the BMX Racing World Cup in Rotorua


    The Under-23 world champion is making the step up to race in the Elite Men's level this weekend - having originally planned to race the Under-23 category.

    Bearman says learning on new tracks around the world means he knows there's not too much to be had from having home advantage - but every per cent counts.



    Fellow Under-23 racer Megan Williams is also racing in her respective Elite Women's category this weekend.
