A thrilling victory by a cyclist in a mountain bike race, celebrating enthusiastically in the rain.

The World Cup opens with the Short Track Test which immediately shows the hottest engines and writes the starting grid for the XCO race.

Compared to the U23 race, running in good weather, the rain arrived in the Czech Republic today but the route was still fast and not heavy due to the mud.

VIDEO HIGHLIGHTS

The race saw a compact group in the lead with a very perky Evie Richards who then paid off in the last lap, when she didn't have the legs to launch a real sprint.

Before the Italian Greta Seiwald who closes in 16th place. Giada Specia is 32^.

ppgad@pucrs.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').
