Ferrand-Prevot: From nightmares to Olympic dreams

Pauline Ferrand-Prévot's comeback to cyclo-cross came to a disappointing end at the World Championships in Valkenburg, but the French multi-discipline cycling star isn't looking back. Instead, she's focused on the upcoming road and mountain bike seasons with Canyon-SRAM, and looking even further ahead to her ultimate career objective - a gold medal at the Olympic Games in Tokyo 2020.
