Canada and US lead UCI rankings

While on the subject of rankings, the UCI Mountain Bike cross country rankings were released on March 20, 2007. Thanks in large part to strong performances at the recent Pan American Continental Championships, Canada and the US now lead the men's and women's rankings respectively while Italian Jader Zoli sits 30 and 80 points ahead of Canadians Geoff Kabush and Seamus McGrath.

For the women, American Georgia Gould leads compatriot Mary McConneloug and Pole Maja Wloszczowska by 50 and 60 points respectively.
