Cycling: Tomi Misser, the Orbea Factory Racing Team driver and cycling legend, is active in both cross-country and downhill sports. And that very successfully. 2019 was also his year, because 23 years after his second Downhill World Cup win, he now wins two World Championship golds in Canada.
There are hardly any words to adequately describe Tomi Misser's career. The rider from the Orbea Factory Team is one of the legends of biking. Also thanks to the two gold medals he secured at the Masters World Championships in Mont Saint-Anne, Canada.
23 years after celebrating his second Downhill World Cup victory in the same place in 1996, he has now returned to Canada. And he brought with him a hunger for further success. His goal: He wanted to win two titles at the Masters World Championship. Both downhill and cross-country.
No sooner said than done: Misser came, saw and won – in both races. In the saddle of his two Orbea machines, Rallon and Alma, he accomplished a feat that many great bikers would have to break their teeth for. If it ever succeeds in repeating this double success.
