Zdenek Stybar returns to cyclocross at Heusden-Zolder, World Championships are possible
CyclocrossWednesday, 07 December 2022 at 20:30
Zdenek Stybar is a familiar face to cyclocross, and this winter he has been in action already. After a break, the Czech rider will be back on the dirt later this month as he looks to do a racing block before the road season.
He's raced five events after the finale of the road season, most noticeably a 17th position in his home World Cup of Tabor, showing he has the competitive form to compete for a good position in the discipline. After taking a break from training, he is now building his form back up, and is set for an equipment change on the 1st of January as he moves over to Team BikeExchange - Jayco.
Stybar will return to cyclocross at the Heusden-Zolder Superprestige which will take place in the 27th of December, in the midst of the Christmas racing block. Although not named, it is reported that he is planning to have six races in his schedule, and the World Championships are currently being considered.
The Quick-Step Alpha Vinyl Team rider has the option to race them but will likely evaluate his form before making a decision. In Tabor, he was the second best Czech rider only after Michael Boros, so it is a plausible possibility taking into consideration the country's influence in the discipline.

- I think you overestimate scientific knowledge and for sure the spreading of it. There are huge numbers of people in similar situations, if there were an easy solution somebody would be making big money out of it. Nerve pain can have many complex origins or be due to complex combinations of reasons. Even if you discover a reason there is not always a solution. Migraines haven’t been solved either. I have had lower back/hip nerve pains on and off for over 30 years, no kind of doctor has ever found a way to reduce, prevent or solve the problem. It may just be that some people are born with nerves that are too short or get twisted out of position during certain movements.Mistermaumau22-12-2024
- Amazing ride by her and very promising for her future. On a side note, it’s a bit worrying all these wins riders have after emotional moments in their lives, someone will come up with emotional doping at some point.
