Mayuko Hagiwara (萩原麻由子 Hagiwara Mayuko, born 16 October 1986, in Maebashi, Gunma, Japan) is a Japanese women's racing cyclist who currently rides for Wiggle High5. After graduating from the National Institute of Fitness and Sports in Kanoya she joined the cycling team sponsored by the Japanese bicycle store Cycle Base Asahi. She won the national road race championship three years in a row between 2010 and 2012[1] and the time trial championship five times in a row between 2008 and 2012.[2] She represented Japan in cycling at the 2012 Summer Olympics in the Women's road race.[3] In November 2012, it was announced that Hagiwara had signed to ride with the British cycling team Wiggle High5 for the 2013 season.[4] She lost her national road race and time trial crowns to Eri Yonamine in 2013, but won both titles again in 2014.[5] In 2015, she lost the time trial title to Yonamine, but was again crowned road race champion.[6] That year also saw her become the first Japanese to win a stage in a grand tour, as she took victory in stage 6 of the Giro d'Italia Femminile.[7]
