The 2025 XC World Champs took place in Crans-Montana, Switzerland. Here are the results, reports and highlights vids.
Why can road riders get a spare bike in the case of a puncture, but mountain bikers must get a wheel change (that takes longer)???
It was superb racing! The course is brilliant, as good as Val di Sole and much better in the dry than when all the timber sections were treacherously wet.Â
I was so glad to see Sammie Maxwell get on the podium as she is like a ball of energy.Â
And Hatherleys race was technically excellent - all stemming from great vision and reactions to avoid the pile ups.Â
The best bit has to be Nino though - by the 2nd half of the race it had turned to just lap(s) of honour, and he spent the time just cruising round to a 40-something place finish throwing whips and wheelies for the crowd who were going berserk. Lots of good footage on the socials as ever.Â
