Trek Factory Racing’s Rachel Atherton has taken the first scalp here at the 2018 Fort William World Cup by setting a lightning quick time in qualifying.
With a time of 5:07, Rachel Atherton has stormed qualifying here at the Fort William World Cup. How fast is that? A 5:07 would have put her in the low fifties in finals in Elite Men in 2017.
Not only did Rach put in a champion’s run, she was hot on the heels of championship rival Myriam Nicole, a major psychological win for the Brit.
