The Cyclocross
World Championships will take place in Lièvin and it is only two weekends away at this time. A few teams have begun confirming their plans for what is perhaps the most important weekend of the cyclocross season, and Great Britain are one of the first to make it public, headlined by
Cameron Mason and
Zoe Bäckstedt.
The selection notably does not feature any athlete for the women's elite race, which comes as a bit of a hit for the country's athletes, but is not something unheard of in recent years with national teams for the European nation.
The men's elite field will include two Britons in national champion and last year's silver medal at the Europeans Cameron Mason, who's had a rough season hampered by health issues, but has recently finished in the Top10 of the Dendermonde World Cup and will be a contender for such result.
Thomas Mein, 6th at the Besançon World Cup, will also be hoping for a similar performance on this key day.
