Summary

After more than two decades at the top of cross-country mountain biking, Nino Schurter reflects on life after stepping away from full-time racing. In one of his first in-depth conversations since retiring, Nino shares what it’s really like to stay #1 for so long — from the mindset required on race day to adapting through every evolution of the sport. We talk about longevity, pressure, training, and why success didn’t feel like sacrifice, as well as what comes next beyond the World Cup circuit.
