N1NO The Great Makes History in Lenzerheide

20 June 2023

Lenzerheide, Switzerland. There’s no other mountain biker like him. 4795 days after his first ever World Cup win in Dalby Forest, UK in 2010, N1NO Schurter, the Greatest MTB athlete of all time makes history with a World record-breaking 34th World Cup win on home-soil in Lenzerheide, Switzerland.

As the crowds gathered across the mountain resort, the atmosphere was electric. The chants of “NINO…! NINO…!” echoed throughout the valley in anticipation of seeing the home-town hero race on this iconic track. Lenzerheide, home and training ground of Nino Schurter, is also part of Nino’s greatest successes. Consecutive World Cup wins in 2016 and 2017, then crowned World Champion across the same line in 2018. Could N1NO Schurter write the perfect fairytale and also break the World Record here, at home in Lenzerheide?

Of course. The Greatest Of All Time just got even greater, surpassing Julien Absalon and setting a new benchmark that will likely last forever.

On Sunday, N1NO Schurter crossed the line in front of a phenomenal home crowd to celebrate one of his biggest successes to take his record-breaking 34th World Cup win.

For the Greatest Of All Time, it’s hard to find unreached goals. Olympic Champion, 10-time World Champion and 8-time World Cup Champion. The World Record was the one goal that remained. And after winning his 32nd World Cup in 2019, it was no secret that N1NO was aiming for Julien Absalon’s record. With the Covid pandemic slowing down his hunt, it took more than two years to claim the elusive 33rd Win in Brazil last year.

With the 34th win within reach, N1NO desperately wanted to bring it home in front of his fans in Lenzerheide. When a crash near the finish stole his chances in 2022, Nino was hugely disappointed. With the 2023 World Cup in Lenzerheide being the last for the coming years, N1NO arrived on the start line full of emotions, for what he called “my last dance in Lenzerheide!”. It was time to give it his all.

“When everything falls in place at the right moment! It was my last dance here in Lenzerheide, but it was the best dance! I’m overwhelmed and emotionally touched of what was going on out there. This day I will never forget!.” Nino Schurter 10x World Champion SCOTT-SRAM MTB Racing
