Mountain biking star Jenny Rissveds won overall victory in the road cycling competition, Gracia Orlova, earlier this year. The 28-year-old has signed for a road cycling team (Team Coop-Hitec Products) and is now aiming for the Tour de France.

"I want to get more experience on the road, and I'm really grateful to sign for the team," she said in a statement. She is eager to make her third Olympics in Paris next year but needs to be selected.
