UCI World Cup Il Ciocco, Italy
The mountain village of Il Ciocco in Tuscany, Italy, played host for the final round of the 2019 UCI World cup. The second round in Italy this year and the final opportunity to shine in the ultra short and competitive World cup series. Unfortunately the riders had to get the job done in front of hardly any spectators due to the remote location of the event in an area where enduro and motorcycle trials rule and bicycle trials is pretty much unknown.
The man-made sections in Il Ciocco mainly consisted of super high logs and rocks. The UCI European championship was organised in the same sections a week earlier with Nicolas Vallée finishing in second place and earning the silver medal.
Alejandro Montalvo was on fire during the 1/2 finals finishing in 1st place with an almost perfect score.
Although Adam Morewood easily qualified for the 1/2 20’ finals, his ankle injury is still hampering him massively.
