Carlos Store, competing under the banner of Team Grupo Serman, might face some initial struggles due to the formidable nature of the course and the 10-rider field. The X Provincial Circuit of Córdoba BTT XCO 2025 provides a deeper challenge to many local cyclists.

I expect Iponuba to play some aggressive, fast-paced handball that will hopefully wear down their opponents, securing victory. It will be especially interesting to see which teams are able to keep the momentum going through such a hectic early part of their season.
