    I think the hosts are allowed to choose what events they have. India isn’t that high on the UCI world mtb rankings so chose to have an event they might be good at instead.

    even round the walls of the old fortifications on the east side of the city a good course could be made. great setting, missed a trick there for the tourist board. im off there in 3 weeks cant wait!
