It will be an exciting season starting with the UCI World Championships in Leuven, followed by the first UCI World Cup the week after in Graz. We would also like to thank the organisers for their cooperation in this difficult situation, as well as all riders and teams for their understanding.

City Mountainbike is seeking host recommendations!

Due to a high demand of international athletes, City Mountainbike noticed that many non-European cyclists are interested to come to Europe and participate in the 2020 UCI Mountain Bike Eliminator World Cup and the 2020 UCI Mountain Bike Eliminator World Championships to pursue their dreams. There are several professional mountain bikers (coming from Indonesia, Mexico, Ecuador, Lesotho, etc.) looking for a host family or a cheap stay.

Do you feel that hosting any of these athletes is always something you’ve wanted to do? Or if would you know any suitable location (eventually a guest family) to stay during their season, then please drop us a message at info@citymountainbike.com. Please feel free to share this message with your friends or colleagues! Thanks for your collaboration.
