Christian Heule, who’s become a regular in North America during the early season races, has regained the Swiss cross jersey – his sixth time winning that title. Mountain biker and pre-race favorite Lukas Flückiger (Trek World Racing) finished in fourth, just off the podium. Pirmin Land (Team Delta-Price) was second, with Julien Taramarcaz (BMC Mountain Bike Team) in third.

22 year-old Jasmin Achermann brought home the women’s title in front of Katrin Leumann and Fabienne Niederberger.
