Running across the finish line on foot ahead of a sprinting Jamey Driscoll (Clement) is probably not how Stephen Hyde (Cannondale Cyclocrossworld) envisioned winning his first U.S. Cyclocross National Championship.
There were no rabbits feet or broken mirrors that could slow a motivated Katie Compton (KFC Racing p/b Trek/Panache) on her quest for her 13th National Cyclocross Title.
One of the most anticipated races on Sunday was the Women’s U23 race that featured Ellen Noble and Emma White. The two women did not disappoint, as they both shot off the front and got a large early gap back to their rivals.
Lance Haidet wins the 2017 U23 Men’s National Championship by surviving where others faltered on a snowy, slick course in Hartford.

Katie Compton (KFC Racing p/b Trek/Panache) rode a fast pace and controlled the race from the front to take her 13th Elite Women’s National Championship.
Ellen Noble discusses confidence before the U23 Women’s National Championship race, strategy during the race and the importance of staying focused.
In a cruel twist of fate, race favorite and leader on the last lap, Maxx Chance (EVOL DevoElite Racing) suffered a mechanical just feet from the finish. Lance Haidet (Clement Pro Cycling) won a very thrilling race.
The Bonkbreaker Slide is a very distinctive section of the Nationals course that features a very steep downhill that racers navigated in various ways – on their feet, on their knees, on their bottoms and sometimes on their bike.
Ellen Noble (Aspire Racing) takes the U23 Women’s National Title with a 30 second lead over Emma White (Cannondale Cyclocrossworld) at the finish line. Hannah Finchamp (UCI MTB: Clif Pro Team) had a great race and finished in third.
Denzel Stephenson had a crank arm fall off and he was still able to beat Lane Maher (by 20 seconds) for the 2017 Junior Men 17-18 National Title.

Nick Carter is from Minnesota, so he is very familiar with riding and racing in the snow. Carter used his experience to best the competition for the National Title.
Katie Clouse has a successful track record at Cyclocross Nationals, winning her age group title each year since Verona, Wisconsin in 2013. This year was no different.
