Who will be the next Nino Schurter?
The seventh episode of the docuseries N1NO BEYOND, titled Leading The Way, has just been released and begins with a question that has long resonated in the XCO world: who will be the next Nino Schurter? The video focuses on the final steps in Nino's elite career and the impact he is leaving on mountain biking.
The legacy of Nino Schurter
The Swiss rider, considered the greatest XCO racer of all time, takes another step in his journey. After two decades of accumulating titles and records, including 10 elite world championships, an Olympic triple with gold, silver, and bronze, and 36 World Cup victories, Nino is starting to look beyond the results.
"Races are an important part of us, but they are not everything. I just want to give something back to the community," explains Schurter in the episode.
