KINAN RACING TEAM
Wakayama’s Prestigious Team of All-Rounders
A UCI Continental team based in Wakayama Prefecture.
In addition to top domestic talent, the team has recently acquired strong foreign riders and actively competes internationally.
The highlight of 2025 is the addition of all-rounder Rein Taaramäe (Estonia), who has won stages in both the Vuelta a España and Giro d’Italia.
He has been improving through the latter half of the season, winning a one-day race in Turkey and finishing second in a stage race.
He is a rider to watch at the Mynavi Tour of Kyushu 2025.
Alongside all-rounders such as Nathan Earle (Australia) and Thoma Loubat (France), the team boasts strong Japanese riders: Motoki Yamamoto, who placed second at the Japanese National Championships this year; top climber Taishi Miyazaki; and Eiya Hashimoto, a keirin rider who also actively races on track and road.
New addition Takaki Uga finished first and second alongside Taaramäe in a one-day race in Turkey and is expected to ride aggressively in Kyushu.
