Canyon MTB Racing team’s planned schedule includes an entire World Cup series, the XCO World Championships in Val di Sole, and the Olympic Games in Tokyo.
“I wanted partners that are aligned with our vision and our initiatives.”“Our program sets me up for my next chapter in the sport, and my performance will play a significant role in moving forward.” Emily Batty said.
Her teammate Laurie Arsenault is very optimistic before her first senior season: ”It's a dream to be on a team like this one, and it's a great opportunity for me to learn from the best and with the best. I remember watching Emily at the Olympics and getting her first national title, and she was someone I wanted to be like. I'm just so excited!"
