This past weekend was a successful one for several SCOTT-Swisspower athletes in Bern, Switzerland. With multiple podiums for Nino Schurter and Jenny Rissveds, there were many reasons to celebrate on Sunday.
SCOTT athletes were all over the podium at this past weekends Swiss National Road Racing Championships, with IAM Cycling's Martin Elmiger and Team Maca Loca SCOTT's Simon Pellaud and Colin Stüssi taking top three finishes in their respective divisions.
ORICA-GreenEDGE has named its nine man Tour de France squad. The line-up includes six riders who raced the Australian outfit’s inaugural Grand Boucle alongside three riders making their Tour de France debut.
Nino Schurter is on fire. Having won the XC World Cup event in Val di Sol over the weekend, Nino sits atop the UCI rankings and seems to be picking up momentum.
