We were treated to some great racing today at Round 1 of the UCI MTB World Cup in Nove Mesto na Morave. The elite women’s race stayed mostly dry while it rained just before the start of the elite men’s race which meant some last minute tyre changes.
Elite Female
Having just moved up to the elite ranks Puck put in a great first ride, however Evie Richards looked strong until a puncture lost her the lead.
