When @larsrace is still in the front group late in the race, things tend to get interesting. 👀

Bold statement, clear mission. 🦬

A Short Track World Cup podium already in his pocket (3rd in Leogang) and a 6th place in Nove Mesto last year – the XCO top step is no longer far away. 2026 is the year @vital.albin wants to break through.

The @uci_mtbworldseries kicks off in South Korea next week. 🇰🇷🏁

7 days to the #ucimtbworldcup season opener. 🇰🇷

While the @uci_mtbworldseries kicks off in South Korea next week, @alessandrakeller won’t be on the start line – and that’s a conscious decision.

After eight demanding days at the Cape Epic, winning the overall with partner @candice_mtb, Alessandra is taking the smart route: skip Korea, recharge, and arrive at Nove Město ready to race at full capacity. ⚡️🦬

That’s a wrap. 5 stages. 881 km. A week we won’t forget. 🇫🇷

The Tour du Loir-et-Cher wasn’t about chasing results — it was about growth. And in that, every single one of us delivered.

Stages up to 200 km. Average speeds of 45–46 km/h. Tight roads where position in the peloton made all the difference. A race that pushed us well outside our comfort zone — and that was exactly the point.

For @vital.albin and the @thoemus_akros_youngstars boys, this week was a masterclass in what road racing demands: patience, constant concentration, and the ability to handle explosive tempo changes for hours on end. Five days of working for each other, learning from each other and growing together.

The road project is about more than racing on tarmac. It’s about becoming better athletes — and better teammates. Every kilometre here will pay dividends when the trails begin. 🚵

Now, eyes back on the dirt. MTB season, we’re coming. 👊

Halfway through. Three stages down, two to go. 🇫🇷

Halfway through. Three stages down, two to go. 🇫🇷

@vital.albin has been holding his own at the @letourduloiretcher — a road race that’s been full of surprises.
„The flat stages can be incredibly hard,“ he says.
„You think you can just sit in the wheels — but these guys don’t let up. Ever.“

The data tells the same story: nearly 35 minutes in Zone 6 across Stage 3 alone, sandwiched between long stretches of recovery. It’s a different kind of hard compared to XCO — not short, explosive efforts, but sustained pressure with no real off-switch.
Alongside the @thoemus_akros_youngstars , Vital’s been leading by example both on and off the bike — showing the younger riders how to move through the peloton, when to sit in and when to push.
Two more stages to go. Eyes forward. 👊🏽

WE‘RE #1. 🌍

As of today’s update, #thoemusmaxon leads the @uci_mountainbike team ranking — 5,593 points at the top of the world.
This doesn’t happen by accident. It’s built race by race, lap by lap — on courses like Leogang, where we claimed the team classification last season. 🏆

The 2026 season kicks off in two weeks. We’re ready. 👊

@mathflueck takes the win with @larsrace in second place. @vital.albin had a good day finishing in a strong 7th place.
In the womens race @alessandrakeller made a comeback to the XCO and came home with a strong performance and a second place.

From setup to send mode. ⏱️

Rain. Mud. Cold.
Exactly the kind of day where races are decided long before the start gun.

From building the pit to dialing tire choice, from first laps on a heavy track to the final push on race pace — @fullgazrace Obergessertshausen was a proper test. 🧱

Up front, it turned into a battle:
@vital.albin racing on the edge, chasing the win.
@larsrace coming from behind, lap by lap, stronger every minute.

Final lap. One last move.
P2 for Forster. P3 for Albin.

Not perfect conditions.
That’s where races are made. 💪🏽
