Description
In Episode 11 of Season 6, Neil and Matt look back on (yet) another series of cracking races from Belgium and the UK. They go from the puncture affected woods of Herentals, to the dunes of Koksijde. They also wonder how much Chumbawumba can be invoked*, with Riberolle getting up again after her knock down at Gullegem, and pretty much half the field coming a cropper in the revised... and dare we say improved... epic of Zonhoven. They look back on the second UK UCI double-header of the season with the tough Clanfield Cross, and what is now surely a classic at Cyclopark.  And in the week after the British PM announced that he wanted to improve the maths abilities of 18 year olds they wonder if he had the right idea after all... after the elite series medals were awarded to the wrong riders on the day. In the Laatste Ronde they look forward to , and attempt predictions, for the hotly anticipated British National Championships coming from Westmorland, a course that will test riders... we just hope that injury hasn't removed Mason and Kay from the starts, but with such a stacked field of CX talent, the racing is sure to be awesome. Be there people :-)  (*if you don't remember Chumbawumba... try Spotify 😎) -- To support the show pop over to https://www.buymeacoffee.com/crosscast - every little helps!
