The 2032 Brisbane Olympics in Australia will mark a significant milestone for the sport of mountain biking, as it will be the first time that the Downhill event is included as an official Olympic competition.

The 2032 Brisbane Olympics will feature two mountain biking events: Cross-Country and Downhill. The Cross-Country race will cover a course approximately 8 to 10 kilometers long, with riders competing in a time trial format. In contrast, the Downhill event will challenge athletes on a steep, technical course, where they will compete for the fastest descent.
