The November block of USA Cycling's Junior and U23 development program funded by the MudFund wrapped up last Sunday at World Cup Koksijde. Eleven Junior and U23 women and men raced in Belgium over two weekends, racing at Flandriencross, Ambiancecross, Koksijde and a regional race.
The Junior and U23 Women raced in the Elite Women's race at Koksijde, with Shannon Mallory (NWCX Project) heading up the 6 Team USA representatives in that field. Gage Hecht (Donnelly / Aevolo) was the sole U23 Men's racer, finishing 22nd, and Ian McDonald was the top finisher among the Junior Men.
Results for the Team USA riders are below, and scroll down further for a photo gallery of the racers from Bart Hazen.
