Wahey! Peat and Moseley are World Cup Champions!
This weekend saw the final round of the UCI Mountain Bike World Cup, at Schladming, Austria.
Both Steve Peat and Tracy Moseley went into it at the top of the tables, but it was damn close, so they’d need to be on the gas in order to win the overall.
As it happened, Peaty came in 12th, which was just enough to hold off race-winner Sam Hill. Biggups to Gee Atherton and Marc Beaumont, who finished the championships in 5th and 7th places.
Tracy managed 3rd in her race, again just enough to stay ahead of the race-winner, Sabrina Jonnier. Rachel Atherton and Helen Gaskell finished a fantastic 3rd and 5th in the championships.
As Dirt Magazine put it, has there ever been a better day in the history of UK downhill mountain biking? I think not.
