Switzerland got off to a good start at the mountain bike world championships held on its home soil in Champery with a gold medal in the first race of the week. Linda Indergand rode to a solo win in 57:30, and she had plenty of time to wave a small flag and celebrate her victory. Lena Putz (Germany) and Julia Innerhofer (Italy) finished second and third.
