Announcement Regarding ANA Niseko Classic 2022 Road Race

Thank you very much for your participation and kind support for the ANA Niseko Classic 2022.

During the previous years when we had to announce cancellation of the event, we have received many warm messages from many riders around the world. Those messages gave us the momentum to move forward with the preparation of the 2022 event. We can not describe how much your messages meant to us. Thank you very, very much.

The 2022 event was blessed with fine weather for both the time trial race and road races, and we hope that everyone enjoyed not only the race but also the spectacular nature scenery of the Niseko area.

We would like to inform all participants that during the road race, there was an unfortunate incident in which some riders went off the race route, eventually returned to the correct race route, and crossed the finish line. We apologize for the delay in reporting this incident.

As the event organizer, HOKKAIDO EVENTS would support the race participants regarding qualification for the UCI Gran Fondo World Championships. Should you have any queries regarding your qualification to the World Championships, please contact us at [email protected]

For enquiries about race results, please contact the Japan Cycling Federation (https://jcf.or.jp/contact/)

Lastly, we would like to thank you all again for your participation and kind support for the ANA Niseko Classic 2022.

We look forward to seeing you all in Niseko again next year.
