The first race of the 2024 WHOOP UCI Mountain Bike World Series is now only weeks away. The opening round of the year will take place at the debut venue of Mairiporã, Brazil 12-14 April. Race fans all over the world are on tender hooks at the prospect of that most hotly anticipated of things; an Olympic race season.
