For the first time a Bulgarian racer entered the UCI Top 100 Rank list. Rosen Kovachev from Drag Racing Team won the total of 130 points in the downhill championship and finished the season on 92^nd place in the overall ranking. The previous year (2009) he was 575^th and this is what we can define as progress.
The result is due not only to hard training and big efforts, but also to the fact that this year there were two Bulgarian races (class 2) in the UCI calendar. There are also another Bulgarian racers in the UCI rank list like: Dimitar Gaidov from Ram Bikes Team on 126^th place, Alexander Iliev from Ram Bikes Team on 171^st place, Stivian Gatev from Mountain Hill Troyan Team on 196^th place – a total of 24 other riders.
In the Nations Ranking Bulgaria is on 29^th place. For comparison the previous year result is 48^th place.
