A few days after the announcement of the new format for DH and the inclusion of XC marathon, enduro and e-enduro disciplines in the UCI MTB World Cup series, today the UCI has revealed the dates of the race schedule, which includes 13 events and races in 9 different nations for 6 disciplines. The only location that will face the challenge of hosting all 6 disciplines in a single event spread over 10 days is the Portes du Soleil area, in the French towns of Les Gets, Chatel and Morzine.
3 events held in Italy with Finale Ligure which for the first time will not host the final of the enduro circuit but rather the third stage, first stage of e-enduro and second stage of XC marathon. This is followed by the enduro and e-enduro stage in Val di Fassa and a short distance away, both in time and in kilometres, the XC, DH and short track events in Val di Sole.
Below is the schedule sorted by discipline, for easier digesting.
