Jukka Vastaranta (born March 29, 1984) is a Finnish pro-cyclist from Tampere. During 2003-2006 he rode in the Dutch team Rabobank but for 2007 he switched to the Belgian continental team ''Jartazi-Promo Fashion''. In 2008 he rode for the mountain bike team Brink-Ten Tusscher, but after a good start had to retire again due to his prolonged health problems. After settling back to Finland, in late 2008 he finally found some help for the health problems he had suffered from past several seasons. In 2009, he significantly got better and won all Finnish mountain bike races that he took part in and finished 36th in MTB Marathon World Championships. Jukka started the season 2010 without a team (a short contract with a Greek Pro Continental-level road team turned out to be something that Jukka was not looking for), but was stronger than ever before. He finished 4th in MTB Marathon European Championships and took some important victories in Europe. In July, the first MTB XC Olympic Champion Bart Brentjens contacted Jukka to join his professional team, ''Trek-Brentjens MTB Racing Team''.〔(Vastaranta returns to the dirt )〕 ==Major results== ; UCI Mountain Bike World Championships * 8th, Marathon (2011) * 27th, Cross Country (2010) ; UCI Mountain Bike European Championships * 2nd, Marathon (2011) * 4th, Marathon (2010) * 1st, Cross Country Juniors (2001) ; UCI Mountain Bike Finnish Championships * 1st, Cross Country (2011, 2010, 2009, 2001) * 1st, Marathon (2010, 2009) ; UCI Road Bike World Cup * 1st overall, Juniors (2001) ; UCI Road Bike World Championships * 2nd, Juniors (2002) ; UCI Road Bike Finnish Championships * 1st, TT (2004) ; Miscellaneous * 1st in KitzAlpBike XCO (2011) * 3rd in Dolomiti Superbike (2011) * 1st overall in Zillertal Bike Challenge (2010) * Winner of the 2nd event of Spanish MTB Marathon Cup (2010) * Stage winner in Ster Electro tour (2005) * Second in Tour of Luxemburg (2005) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Jukka Vastaranta」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
