Hopefully, you’ve enjoyed the video highlights of the Elite Women’s and Elite Men’s race at the 2021 UCI Cyclocross World Cup in Overijse.
While the cameras focused mostly on the leaders, including our very own Clara Honsinger, we had photographer Alain Vandepontseele focus his lens on most Americans as well as the leaders.
Enjoy his photos from the final World Cup below.
