Week three’s 2016/2017 Pro CX rankings is out, with a new leader on the men’s side, and a number of Europeans making their mark on the U.S.-based series.
Ellen Noble, after finishing second behind Katerina Nash at the Jingle Cross Day 3 C1 race, cut Kaitlin Antonneau’s almost in half, and bunnyhopping last week’s second-ranked rider, Caroline Mani.
Also moving up the rankings are Courtenay McFadden, moving from 6th to 4th, and Helen Wyman, winning Day 1 of Jingle Cross, making the big leap up from 20th to 10th.
On the men’s side, all the top racers skipped the awesomely muddy night race at Jingle Cross won by German Marcel Meisen. On Sunday, in the UCI C1 event in Iowa City, Jeremy Powers, although he was on the start list, was already on the way home after a disappointing 43rd World Cup, earning no USA Cycling ProCX points on the weekend. With a strong sixth place behind five Europeans, Week #2 leader Hyde extended his lead over Powers for the top spot in the USA Cycling Pro CX rankings.
Behind Powers, Tobin Ortenblad and Jamey Driscoll jumped Powers to sit in second and third. Anthony Clark made a big leap from 11th to 6th, and Jingle Cross C1 winner David van der Poel, moved up to 7th with just one win in one attempt.
See the full Week #3 rankings below.
Next up on the ProCX calendar are two days of racing at the KMC Cross Fest.
This year’s USA Cycling Pro CX calendar features 44 scoring cyclocross races, with UCI C1 and C2 points going 20 deep, and non-UCI events going 10 deep. UCI C1 events naturally score the most points. A non-UCI win is less valuable than seventh in a UCI C1, while a UCI C2 win is less valuable than ninth in a UCI C1, but the number of scoring events are capped per rider.
