Elite Men
Eli Iserbyt, Toon Aerts, Quinten Hermans, Michael Vanthourenhout, and Lars van der Haar will be attending the 2021 UCI World Cup Rucphen. With a heavy heart, we want to update everyone that Mathieu van der Poel will not be attending the 2021 UCI World Cup Rucphen. Unfortunately, he will not be clashing against his rival Thomas Pidcock due to his knee taking longer to heal than expected. Worry not, according to Alpecin Fenix, MVDP will be attending the UCI World Cup Dendermonde 2021 on December 26th. As a community, we will all have to eagerly await his return.
“World Champion @mathieuvanderpoel’s season debut in cyclo-cross will be postponed by a week.” – Alpecin Fenix
