Hope they pick riders who can compete, and give them kit that fits and is fit for purpose....

The athletes have to qualify - they don't get random selected. I know Burry is in, but who else?

 

There was a big bun fight at this last World Cup over the remaining two Swiss places after Nino, they had to finish in the top ten, I think 6 Swiss riders ended up in the top ten, including Suzzie who just missed out on his 4th ticket. Here's the story.
