The UCI Cross-Country Mountain Bike World Cup at Snow Shoe, was not for the faint of heart, whether riding, spectating or watching from home.
The XCO UCI Cross-Country Mountain Bike World Cup at Snow Shoe, WV, was not for the faint of heart, both riding or watching. The slick, rocky, rooty course left spectators nail-biting until the very end of every race.The Elite Men’s XCO was the day’s final race, and all eyes were on American Chris Blevens, Frenchmen Titouan Carod Luca, and Spanish veteran David Valero Serrano.
Alan Hatherly jumped on the gas early, sensing he could take the overall World Cup lead after Nino Schurter had to sit the race out following a crash in the XXC race. On the third lap, Hatherly crashed hard while battling at the front with Blevens, separating him from the lead group for the remainder of the race.The men’s race was an emotional roller coaster; on the fourth lap, while in the lead, Blevens suffered a rear wheel flat, fortunately very close to the pits.
As the riders started the final lap of the course at Snow Shoe, Blevins, Valero, Carod, Braidot, Colombo, and Luca Schwarzbauer wasted no time showing their cards. Blevens launched an attack, but the effort of clawing back nearly 30 seconds after suffering a flat tire set in, and the group could sense it.Valeros’ race intuition was right on the money, attacking the final third of the lap and holding it over some of the most challenging sections of the course.
The team went with the Chaoyang Phantom Dry for the short track and was pleased with the performance, but if the conditions went south , the crew moved to the more aggressive Chaoyang Phantom Wet.The tire looks like the older Specialized Fast Track, and Vittoria Barzo had a baby. The casing on the Chaoyang Phantom Wet is robust and held up to the roots and rocks of WV.
