Extreme weather wrecks Cyclocross European Championships' schedule - No racing this Saturday

A new schedule to the cyclocross European Championships will be announced. Storm Ciarán has been dealing a whole lot of damage all throughout Western Europe, France included. Hence, several races will change schedule.
This was an idea that was already feared for several days as the damages from the storm were forecasted, and now felt. Not only the rain, but the extremely strong winds have been affecting the French coast - and Pontchâteau is right by the sea in Bretagne. This Friday will see the Mixed Relay event take place, however race organizers have as a precaution postponed racing for this Saturday.
The Women Junior, Men Under-23 and Women Elite events were to take place during this Saturday but the weather conditions will be too difficult. "Due to the extreme weather conditions forecast in Western France, the local authorities (Prefet de la Loire-Atlantique) have decreed that no events can be held tomorrow (4 Nov.)," the organization wrote. "All #EuroCross23 events will now be rescheduled for Sunday A new schedule will be announced soon."

It is very likely that all six events will take place on Sunday, although this will most likely bring in logistical challenges that were not forecasted for organizers. Nevertheless, for the time being, it seems as if it will be possible to race on the final day of the weekend.

- Look at what Froome’s won since his last TdF, stop denying there is still more than possible one outcome to the future.Mistermaumau21-12-2024

- Exactly. Remco won 3 WT races/stages last year compared to Pogocar's 19. Remco's single stage win in last years TdF earned him a meager 12 seconds over Pogocar who shellac'd him by 9 minutes in GC.Sweep21-12-2024
- Fortunately and as you point out, more than one strategy is possible and worth trying and I’m sure all concerned riders are well informed and counselled on this subject and don’t need such basic personal advice through media from an outsider.Mistermaumau21-12-2024
- The main SPOTY award is "decided" by public vote but the BBC "expert panel" decide who you can choose from, that choice has an equal split of genders and is focussed on the sports BBC show and a disabled athlete. Oh yea the ubiquitous "Pub Games" candidate there too, Darts and Snooker are not sports. The other awards are decided by the "Expert Panel" again it's about the sports BBC show, cycling has had it. Cav got his for his years and achievements in the sport, not just that 35th TDF win. Unless the BBC get access to Pro Cycling it will never feature "adequately" on SPOTYslappers6621-12-2024

- Avoiding him is a good strategy, you get more wins and then you can compete in the TDF relatively relaxed. Pit yourself against Pogi and not only there will be no wins, it will be considerable mental setbackabstractengineer21-12-2024
