There was a faint whiff of the Fort William World Cup being rescheduled for 2021 but those hopes have been dashed.
With Fort William’s 2021 World Cup being put to bed, Snowshoe now rounds out the season as a double-header.
The remaining World Cup schedule looks like this:
Round 2 – 03-04 July – Les Gets
Round 3 – 14-15 August – Maribor
World Championships – 24-29 August – Val Di Sole
Round 4 – 04-05 September – Lenzerheide
Round 5 – 14-15 September – Snowshoe
Round 6 – 18-19 September – Snowshoe
Here’s the chat from Rare Management:
“The organisers of the 2021 Fort William round of the Mercedes Benz UCI Mountain Bike World Cup, originally planned for 22-23 May, are sorry to confirm there will be no re-scheduled event this year.
Alternative dates had been investigated with the UCI and local partners but the challenges were too significant.
The UCI has today announced that the Fort William round will now take place on September 15 at Snowshoe (USA), just prior to the World Cup Finals.
The entire Fort William team offers their best wishes for all of the remaining World Cups and looks forward to welcoming the world of gravity racing back to the Scottish Highlands in May, 2022.“
