Tom Pidcock will race his first World Cup XC this weekend

Tom Pidcock has been busy racing on the road so far in 2025, but with his Q36.5 team not part of the Tour de France, the reigning Olympic mountain bike champion plans to fill his downtime with some flat-bar racing.

Pidcock will ride his first mountain bike World Cup this weekend at Pal Arinsal, Andorra. It will mark the third time he's raced as an elite on the course, after finishing third at last year's World Championships and third in the World Cup round in 2023. Pidcock hasn't announced any further mountain bike plans but the next round of the World Cup, in Haute Savoie, coincides with the Vuelta a España, where Pidcock is expected to race his second Grand Tour of the year.
