In just a few days, 70 of the world’s top mountain bikers will line up for the Olympic mountain bike race in Paris. In the women’s race on Sunday, all eyes will be on Frenchwoman Pauline Ferrand-Prévot. Can the World Champion beat young gun Puck Pieterse? The next day, the same narrative—young vs. old—will be in play between Tom Pidcock and Nino Schurter.
Or it could be one of dozens of riders that take the gold medal in each field.
