Loïc Bruni (born May 13, 1994 in Nice, France) is a professional downhill mountain biker.[2] He is a student at Skema Business School.
Going into the 2015 season Bruni was one of the favorites. For that season Bruni came 2nd in the world rankings on the Union Cycliste Internationale (UCI) Downhill Mountain Bike circuit. In that season Bruni won three qualifications including Lourdes, France, Fort William, Scotland, and finally Lenzerheide, Switzerland. Although he was fastest in qualifying three times, he did not win any of the World Cup races. At the end of the 2015 season Bruni won the UCI World Championships (not part of the World Cup series). Many people wanted Bruni to win due to his misfortune of that season but people did not fully believe that he could pull it off. Bruni was able to get the best time on his run with two riders left to run, Troy Brosnan and Aaron Gwin. Both Brosnan and Gwin were not able to stay on their bikes. Bruni was able to win his first international race at the biggest race of the season.
