With a much less than exciting match-up in the STUPOR BOWL this weekend, why not jump on the much anticipated CYCLOCROSS WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS from Hoogerheide, Holland. The event is going to be broadcast live on the net at Universal Sports. Click on the pic above to go to the home page.

Watch for contendors in every class for the Gold, in particular Katie Compton in the women's elite field and possibly more podge from Georgia Gould and Rachel Lloyd, all three have been crushing it this year.

The under 23 field may be interesting as the USA has some very strong riders getting ready to throw this weekend. Look for Weighall, Keough and Summerhill (1,2,3 at Nats) to work together and maybe grab a podge spot.

The Men's Field should be more of the usual, look for the usual suspects to fill out the podium. Lars Boom is racing at his home rink and will be VERY motivated to win, however, Sven Nys has been rolling very well as of late and looks to regain the Rainbow jersey...I'm picking Nys.

Boom Boom out go the lights?
