UCI World Rankings - MTB Cross-country (as of October 19th)

Chris Sheppard has moved into 17th place, and is now the top-ranked North American male rider. Seamus McGrath has squeaked into the top 50, and retired ex-Ritchey pro Warren Sallenbach has finally dropped out of the rankings. On the women's side, Alison Sydor continues to be the number one ranked rider in the world, with Melanie Dorion moving into the top-20 to join Lesley Tomlinson and Chrissy Redden (without a couple of crashes that took her out of World Cup #1 and the World Cup Final, Redden would be in the top-10).
