Evie Richards and Lachlan Stevens-McNab feature in New Documentary: The Cycle

Brand-new documentary, The Cycle, follows five riders across different cycling disciplines and career stages, including WHOOP UCI Mountain Bike World Series stars Lachie Stevens McNab and Evie Richards.

The 60-minute documentary will air on 3rd March at 17:30 CET on Eurosport and HBO Max across mainland Europe and at 16:30 GMT on TNT Sports and discovery+ in the UK and Ireland*.

From the weight of early expectations to the uncertainty of beginnings, from the challenge of balance to the pressure of winning and the obsession with results, the documentary reveals what it truly means to live as a professional rider.

Lachlan Stevens McNab (Trek - Unbroken DH) stands on the start line of his career, facing the leap from promise to profession. 2025 UCI Cross-country Short Track (XCC) overall champion Evie Richards (Trek - Unbroken XC) chases medals, living at the edge where ambition, pressure, and identity collide. Other featured riders include Thibau Nys (Belgium – Cyclocross and Road), Emma Norsgaard (Denmark – Road), Emil Johansson (Sweden - MTB Slopestyle/Freeride).

Moving between road, track, cyclocross, and mountain biking, the show will offer an intimate, collective portrait of a profession defined by repetition and resilience where every season begins again, and becoming a pro rider is a process that never truly ends.
