The 2017 Cyclocross World Championships are underway, and the Junior Men’s race delivered the expected crashes, mechanicals and the top-seeded favorite at the front.
What wasn’t expected was that first call-up Brit Thomas Pidcock would be followed by another two Brits to complete a British sweep of the podium, with Daniel Tullet in second, and Ben Turner in third.
