Love that CXHairs is covering MTB again this year - seems a natural post CX season segue to me. And so good to see more high level XCO racing in U.S. (narrow minded spectators aside) and a good field. Suspect these UCI points are meaningful as grid position is even more import in MTB than cross. Big question is does the heat check algorithm make an appearance in 2023 and does a win in this race carry more “weight” than Blevins win at Cape Epic 🤔
