2024 Olympic Games: all disciplines!

Mountain biking entered the Games a century after its track and road cycling predecessors, in Atlanta in 1996, with an individual men's and women's race.

Mountain biking has two events, one for women and one for men, known as cross-country. This is a straight race of several laps around a loop, where the mountainous and rugged terrain tests the athletes' technical skills, endurance and stamina.
