UCI JUNIOR SERIES XCO

Junior Series is the highest level of official XCO competitions for young riders. Race takes place on the standard XCO course: technical track full of obstacles, fast descents and challenging uphills. The first lap (start lap) leads along a wide forest road (for better overtaking opportunities) and is followed by a predetermined number of regular laps (established by the UCI Commissioner before the race according to the actual conditions on the track).
