PODCAST - THE SPORTING DIRECTOR AND THE ATHLETE

PODCAST #2


In the run-up to the major sporting event, you can listen to five podcasts with various guests from the world of cycling and representatives of the organizing committee. We talk about the importance of the event for the region, the impact on tourism and sustainability. We find out more about the construction of trails, the fascination of mountain biking and look ahead to next year's Mountain Bike World Championships in Valais.


Podcast #2 The sporting director and the athlete with Nik Wicki and Nicolas Walker


Nicolas Walker is the ambassador for the UCI Mountain Bike Enduro World Cup races in the Aletsch Arena and Bellwald. The 32-year-old is an entrepreneur and competes in the Open Race category himself. In the podcast, he talks about his experiences, his expectations and how the birth of his daughter has changed his behavior on the bike.


Nik Wicki is a jack of all trades. As Series Manager of the Swiss Enduro Series, he knows his way around the sport of biking. He will be the sporting director of the UCI Mountain Bike Enduro World Cup races in July in the Aletsch Arena and Bellwald. He hopes that the 800 or so participants will experience an unforgettable race weekend.
