Agreed. I thought WVA was going to win. Either way, great race and cool that there's actually a RACE taking place. Wout absolutely killed the field in the US races and you really don't want that every week.Stuart wrote:Only saw the last lap shenanigans but surely WvA had the edge but for the dropped chain?
Hi everyone,
I am really pleased to be able to tell you that I have been contracted to host the BIKE Channel UK’s coverage of live continental Cyclocross for the new season which will include both Women and Men’s races at the Superprestige & BPost Trofee Series and more. You can see all the action from the races on Bike Channel UK on Sky Channel 464, Virgin media Channel 552 & Freesat Channel 251.
Was that the first ever that live CX has been shown on an actual TV channel in the UK? Hats off to the Bike Channel for sticking their necks out and getting the licence. I hope it was worth it for them so it continues.StevenDrew wrote:Interesting. Matt Payne posted this on Facebook earlier...
