Nino Schurter will miss the Les Gets World Cup

The 10-time World Champion will miss the Les Gets World Cup that starts tomorrow. It is not common for Schurter to decide to skip a World Cup event, but this time he has prioritized specific preparation for the Olympics.

Nino Schurter will be absent from the Les Gets World Cup

For several seasons now, it has been normal to see some cyclists choose to skip World Cup events in order to arrive in better shape for specific events such as the World Championships or the European Championship. This creates some controversy in the field, but the UCI has so far allowed it normally, although in cyclocross they have had to take drastic measures for this reason.

In any case, Nino Schurter is one who prefers to participate in all World Cup events and has only missed a few due to injury. But the Les Gets World Cup starting tomorrow is very close in time to the Paris Olympics on July 29, and considering that they could be his last Olympics, it is understandable that he has chosen to do a block of altitude training beforehand even if it means having to give up Les Gets.
