Cody Webb: “This race was so intense! Whether it was the time, rhythm or track, everything was difficult. I’m really satisfied to string together the victories and to close a little gap in the overall ranking. The track was very tricky and overcame many riders today. I managed to start out relatively well. I showed patience, and I was able to find the right rhythm, even though if it was high from the start, I managed to choose the right lines and I used my trials skills a lot throughout this very
technical course. I’m so happy with the result and it’s satisfying for the whole team.”
