(Gossau ZH, Switzerland)-Last weekend, the 2015 Masters World Championships took place in Europe, encouraging riders from 30 to over 75 to travel to compete for an elusive rainbow jersey.
Last January, we published an article about the shattered dreams at the Masters World Championships, focusing on French-based American rider Lillian Pfluke (RSC Prum), who was forced to compete in a younger age category because of lack of participation in her own age group. This year, not only did her combined group of four get to keep their own category scored separately, but she was able to take her win. Pfluke was the only American to win at this year’s championship, a great, long-awaited victory. Because the only American to win races in France, the United States will likely not see the Masters rainbow jersey this year on home cyclocross soil.

Henry Kramer (CalGiant Specialized), winner of last year’s 55-59 age group, was unable to defend his title, taking seventh in his large field. American Thomas Hayles (ZG7908) was able to land on the podium in this race, placing third, and Steven Kinney (VC Lancy) also competed in this field, taking 25th. Brian Finnerty (California Giant Berry Farms/Specialized) was the fifth American present at Worlds, unable to finish in the 45-49 Men.
With six wins in the different categories, French riders took home the most victories across the categories. Representation in masters worlds’ events are typically different than those found in the elite fields: the Northern European countries of Belgium and the Netherlands, while present, are not dominating in the masters categories. Great Britain distinguished itself this year in the “Masters Masters,” (another way of saying that they could call everyone else Baby Masters). All five of their wins came in the 50+ age groups.
