As part of the Freeride Mountain Bike World Tour, the GlemmRide 2017 (07. – 08. July) was attracting many international riders as a FMB gold event and promised to be a jaw-dropping show for the audience in Saalbach – Hinterglemm. Due to the bad weather in the afternoon, the Qualifying started one hour earlier, which counted as the final result. Not only were the rainy circumstances a big challenge, but in the end the spectators saw Slopestyle action on the highest level. In the end the Belgian Thomas Genon won the battle against his French competitors.
Apart of the Slopestyle contest the GlemmRide Bike Festival 2017 had especially for the young riders a lot to get in touch with: On the Pro-Line of the “Reiterkogel” the GlemmRide Downhill and the Specialized Rookies Cup presented by iXS were looking for their champions.
