I got into it after Mathieu van der Poel in 2018 came into the #UCIXCOWorldCup and shook things up quite a bit. I loved so much watching him that I started to watch #Cyclocross. After I got a GCN subscription I started to follow the CX world cups pretty regularly, also the women.
The Tour de France was the entry race for us. (Stage 9, Lillian Calmejane won). We were watching road racing and the season came to an end. We watched a couple #cyclocross races and were hooked. Now cyclocross are our preferred races to watch and road is the "back up." What I especially like about cyclocross is that women and men do the same track, and both are broadcast. The 50 minute/60 minute time limits also make them an easy watch to fit in. #cycling #biketooter
I’ve been a road fan since I was a kid, but got into #cyclocross 2 years ago after subscribing to GCN and having access for the first time. I love it because of its intensity. Shorter and much easier to consume than a road race, but more consistently exciting! #biketooter #cycling
I was persuaded to try #CycloCross about 15 years ago and have raced it ever since. I have made so many new friends because of cyclo-cross. I joined trips to the World Championships which blew me away and now I organise them. I was fortunate to see the first rainbow jersey battle between WvA and MvdP at #Koksijde in 2012. The fun, passion and friendly rivalry epitomise sport. And then add the Euro-pop and Belgian beer 🙂
