On Sunday, the U23 Women will kick things off (start list here) at 11:00 am local time, or 5:00 am EST time. The Elite Men will follow at 3:00 pm / 9:00 am.

See the Elite Men’s race start list below, with 59 racers.

Seven North Americans will take the start, with five from the U.S. and two from Canada.

The biggest question is whether this season’s dominant rider, Mathieu van der Poel, can win back the rainbow jersey after Wout Van Aert’s three-year run. UCI Cyclocross World Cup overall winner Toon Aerts also figures to factor in the race.
