Olympic champion Tom Pidcock (Q36.5) is set to make his 2025 mountain biking debut this weekend, as he lines up in the cross-country Olympic (XCO) race at the World Cup in Pal Arinsal, Andorra.

Pidcock hasn't ridden a cross-country race since the World Championships in 2024 – also at Pal Arinsal in Andorra – where he came third just a few weeks after taking Olympic gold. He also hasn't raced MTB since his off-season move to Q36.5 from Ineos Grenadiers.
