1991It was 24 years ago that two American riders, John Tomac and Sara Ballantyne, became the first winners of the UCI Mountain Bike World Cup. The year was 1991, and the World Cup series comprised nine rounds in seven countries, catering for Cross-country Olympic (XCO) specialists only.

1993 Two years later the downhill (DHI) format joined the programme, crowning two German athletes this time: Jürgen Beneke and Regina Stiefl. Interestingly, John Tomac, XCO winner in 1991, took second place in the inaugural downhill World Cup as well as second in the XCO.

1998 - 20011998 was the year that the dual slalom – the forerunner of four-cross – made its debut in the World Cup. Dual slalom involved knock-out heats with two riders racing on parallel courses, and it featured in the World Cup for four years. American Brian Lopes and Australian Katrina Miller won the overall classification the first year.

2002 - 2011After four years on the programme, the dual slalom was replaced by four-cross (4X) in which four riders race against each other on a single course. Winner of three of the four dual-slalom World Cups, Brian Lopes went on to dominate the first year of four-cross. In the women’s competition victory went to France’s Anne-Caroline Chausson, already winner of the dual-slalom in 2000.

2012-2014Cross-country Eliminator was the latest mountain bike format to join the UCI Mountain Bike World Cup from 2012 to 2014. This spectacular format for XCO specialists sees four competitors race head-to-head over a lap of around a kilometre. Introduced to the World Cup with three events in 2012, six Eliminator rounds appeared in 2013 and 2014 with the overall classifications going to Belgium’s Fabrice Mels and Switzerland’s Kathrin Stirnemann.

UCI MOUNTAIN BIKE WORLD CUP PRESENTED BY SHIMANO A BRIEF RUNDOWNThe UCI Mountain Bike World Cup has a long, colourful history and enjoys a solid following through-out the world. Over the years, the UCI has modified the format and introduced new initiatives in or-der to keep up with evolving trends and meet the expectations of athletes and fans.

EVOLUTION OF THE UCI MOUNTAIN BIKE WORLD CUP


BEST EVENTSThe UCI Mountain Bike World Cup rewards not only the best athletes but also the best organisers. Each year, UCI Mountain Bike Teams, media, sponsors, and UCI officials vote for the top events for each of the two formats: cross-country and downhill. This creates healthy competition between the organisers and encourages them to stage events of the highest quality.

Cross-Country Olympic: five out of five for Nové Město na MoravěJoining the UCI Mountain Bike World Cup for the first time in 2011, Nové Město na Moravě hosted its fifth consecutive XCO event in 2015. And for the fifth consecutive year it was voted best XCO event of the series. This achievement bodes well for the 2016 UCI Mountain Bike World Championships which will take place in the Czech sports resort from 28 June to 3 July.

Downhill: Lourdes impresses from the outsetAthletes, officials and sponsors have been won over by the demanding downhill course in the foothills of the Pyrenees which offers a stunning view over the French market town of Lourdes. For its first appearance on the calendar of the UCI Mountain Bike World Cup presented by Shimano, Lourdes, one of the world’s most important sites of pilgrimage, opened the 2015 DHI racing season and was voted best DHI event of the series.

UCI MOUNTAIN BIKE WORLD CUP PRESENTED BY SHIMANO


CROSS-COUNTRY OLYMPIC (XCO)Cross-country Olympic format races are held over undulating circuits (with technical descents, forest roads, rocky paths and obstacles) of 4 to 6 km, which riders must complete several times. The Elite racing times, for men and women, vary from 1h 30 minutes to 1h 45 minutes. An attractive course design that shows the discipline well on television and also spectator friendly is a necessity!

DOWNHILL (DHI)Downhill is a race against the clock in which the rider negotiates a succession of fast and technical passages. The participant must demonstrate courage as well as sharp technical and piloting skills in order to battle tree roots, rocks, banked sections, bumps, jumps and other natural obstacles along the way.

2016 CALENDAR


LOURDES / FRADHI New to the UCI Mountain Bike World Cup presented by Shimano in 2015, Lourdes will be one of three rounds – with Fort William and Leogang – 100% dedicated to Downhill. A regular French Cup stopover, the city in the south-west of France will kick off the season. The riders will no doubt enjoy its demanding track that offers a stunning view of the city.

PRESENTATION OF THE ROUNDS

The complete competition programme is available on the UCI website.


CAIRNS / AUSXCO / DHIAfter a break of a year, the UCI Mountain Bike World Cup returns to the tropical rainforest in the iconic region of the Great Barrier Reef. One of Australia’s leading tourist destinations, Cairns is again ready to welcome the world’s mountain bike community. Twenty years ago the Queensland City hosted the UCI Mountain Bike World Championships and looks forward to doing so again in 2017.




ALBSTADT / GERXCOThe German venue will organise an XCO round of the UCI Mountain Bike World Cup for the fourth time since it first joined the calendar in 2013. The Albstadt bike park was created in 2004 and features a combination of physically-demanding passages and technical sections. The venue is used by a number of athletes preparing for the World Cup. With its excellent facilities, it is no surprise that Albstadt in south-west Germany is popular with XCO riders.




LA BRESSE / FRAXCOThe ski resort in France’s eastern region of the Vosges will host a round of the UCI Mountain Bike World Cup four years after Frenchman and local hero Julien Absalon raced to victory on these very slopes. Scheduled for late May, the round in La Bresse comes a month before the UCI Mountain Bike World Championships for XCO riders and three months before many of them will meet again at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games.




FORT WILLIAM / GBRDHIAfter first joining the UCI World Cup in 2002, this British stopover features on the calendar for the 15th time. Also host of the 2007 UCI Mountain Bike & Trials World Championships, this spot in the Scottish Highlands is a not-to-be-missed destination on the DHI calendar. Clear evidence of this was that Fort William was voted best DHI event in 2012 and 2013.




LEOGANG / AUTDHIThe Saalfelden-Leogang bike park was launched in 2001 and has become one of the most popular European meetings for downhillers. The Austrian winter sports resort, not far from Salzburg, joined the UCI Mountain Bike World Cup in 2010 and hosted the 2012 UCI Mountain Bike World Championships (Downhill/4X) followed by the 4X Worlds in 2013 and 2014. With its spectacular views, Leogang once again promises to be sensational.




LENZERHEIDE / SUIXCO / DHICross-country Olympic and Downhill specialists are all looking forward to returning to this Swiss alpine resort. For its first year on the UCI Mountain Bike World Cup calendar last year, Lenzerheide produced exciting XCO contests as well as thrilling DHI racing featuring high-speed passages and spectacular jumps. This will be the second of three UCI Mountain Bike World Cup rounds in Lenzerheide (2015-2017) before the resort organises the UCI Mountain Bike World Championships in 2018.




MONT-SAINTE-ANNE / CANXCO / DHIThe Canadian round has been an integral part of the UCI Mountain Bike World Cup since 1991. This highlight of the World Cup takes place at one of the “Sommets de Saint Laurent” in Quebec and deserves its reputation as a Mecca of mountain biking.




VALLNORD / ANDXCO / DHIThe round in the Vallnord Bike Park in La Massana, Andorra, in the heart of the Pyrenees, will bring the curtain down on the 2016 UCI Mountain Bike World Cup season. Riders will square off in this final showdown on the terrain that saw the world’s best battle it out for the rainbow jersey last September at the 2015 UCI Mountain Bike & Trials World Championships.

In total, 129 teams from 30 countries have been registered for the 2016 season. Two nations – Luxembourg and Malaysia – have registered a team for the first time, while Mexico returns with a team after an absence of four years.

As in previous years, 30 teams (15 Endurance teams and 15 Gravity teams) have been awarded UCI ELITE Mountain Bike status. Invitations to join this highest tier of teams were issued to the top 12 Endurance (XC) teams and top 12 Gravity (DHI) teams from a special ranking which was established on the basis of the individual UCI points won by the riders up to 31 December 2015. The three additional teams of each format (XC and DHI) offered UCI ELITE status were selected at the discretion of the UCI.

UCI ELITE Mountain Bike teams benefit from advantages including free entry to all races on the UCI Mountain Bike International Calendarin the discipline in which the team has ELITE status. For the UCI Mountain Bike World Cup presented by Shimano, this means free entry together with the obligation to enter at least one rider in all rounds.
