Perhaps never before, the fight for the rainbow jerseys at the UCI Mountain Bike Marathon World Championships were so difficult to predict. Between the 188 registered male riders are ten or more real candidates to grab the title at the Hegau Bike-Marathon in Singen, Germany, on Sunday. All lead by title defender Tiago Ferreira and former champions Alban Lakata and Jaroslav Kulhavy and the phenomenon Mathieu van der Poel. On the female side, we count 77 registrations but especially five women are expected to win the title in the volcano landscape of the Hegau.

Bei den Herren ist die Ausgangslage vor den UCI Mountainbike Marathon Weltmeisterschaften in Singen wohl so spannend wie nie zuvor, da sich etliche Cross-Country-Spezialisten ins Fahrerfeld mischen und der 98 Kilometer lange Kurs beim Hegau Bike-Marathon sehr viele Optionen offen lässt. Ein kleiner, sicher am Ende auch lückenhafter Streifzug durch das Favoriten-Portfolio und die deutschen Hoffnungen. 

During the UCI Mountain Bike World Championships on 25^th of June in Singen, a “King of the Mountain” prize will be rewarded. Two times the elite riders can set their time on a Strava segment at the Hegau-Kreuz and the hobby riders of the Hegau Bike Marathon on their 80, 49 or 31 kilometre track will have the chance to compete for the prize at the Plören.
