2015 UCI MTB World Cup Lenzerheide POV

For the very first time the UCI World Cup pays a visit to Lenzerheide, Switzerland. Boasting a newly built track, that's been specifically designed with racing in mind — surrounded by snow-capped mountains and an emerald lake — it's the picture-perfect setting for a new round.

Course commentator, Claudio Caluori, has been involved with the track from the start and has seen it turn from an untamed mountain to a World Cup worthy run. Join Caluori and Colombia's Marcelo Gutiérrez as they take you on a loose, dusty and rough ride down the epic new track.

Claudio Caluori: Many people think I built the track, but I didn't — Rafael Rhyner from Trailworks built and designed it. Before the course was there I walked down the mountain with Rafael and we discussed what lines would be good to use, so I've seen it transform from a mountainside to a World Cup course.
