Team camp and first podium of the year for KMC-Nukeproof
KMC Nukeproof MTB is fully preparing for the new season. At the start of the year, the team travelled to La Xara, a charming village on the Costa Blanca that is well known among cyclists. The training camp was combined with the first races of the season. Kelsey Urban immediately secured the team’s first podium finish of the year in La Nucia.
During the team camp, the riders tested new equipment extensively. Suspension setups and tyres were carefully evaluated and, after the training sessions, the riders also had time to strengthen team spirit. The atmosphere in the team is excellent, which was already reflected in the first race results.
