Team 31, Jenny Rissveds' team, announced this afternoon that the Swedish biker will not be on the starting line of the XCO World Championship in Les Gets. Rissveds has not fully recovered from the prolonged cold symptoms she caught in Mont-Sainte-Anne.

"It sucks". This is Jenny's recap of her in an interview today on Swedish radio when she announced that due to a prolonged cold, she will not participate in this year's World Championships.

Jenny feels fine overall, but her body simply couldn't recover as it should after she fell ill in Mont Saint Anne. Therefore we have decided to withdraw from this week's events in the hope of feeling 100% at the last World Cup test next week in Val di Sole.

famac@famac.ind.br I am passionate about everything that has 2 wheels: in my youth I practiced competitive cycling on the road and on the track with good results. At the age of 18 I moved to cross country competing at national/international level as U23. Once I passed Elite, I made the choice to take things easier from the training point of view, and that's how my love for gravity disciplines was born, training as an FCI MTB instructor and guide. Now I have made my passion my profession by managing 3 MTB centers on the island of Elba (Elba MTB), creating the FANTAmtb and telling in an ironic but professional way, everything that revolves around MTB thanks to 365mountainbike and 365TV (YouTube 'PULITI dentro BIKER fuori').
