Biography

Satomi Wadami (和田見 里美, Wadami Satomi, born May 26, 1987 in Hokuei, Tottori) is a Japanese amateur road and track cyclist. She won three bronze medals in women's road time trial, individual pursuit, and points race at the Asian Championships (2006 and 2007), and later represented Japan at the 2008 Summer Olympics.
Wadami qualified for the Japanese squad in the women's points race at the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing by claiming a gold medal and receiving a berth from the UCI "B" World Championships in Cape Town, South Africa. Wadami did not finish the grueling 25-km Olympic sprint race in a field of twenty-two cyclists, after she suddenly crashed and fell off the track, leaving her distraught and injured.
