Cyclo cross has a deep, deep programme of events at a local, regional, national and world level. Each one of these races can often attract 500 or more riders, plus huge numbers of fans at some and below is a calendar of UCI registered races.
The UCI ranks each race in status with CMM (World Championships), CDM (World level), CN (National Championship), C1 and C2. The bread and butter of the UCI calendar are C1 and C2 events.
The top series is the Telenet UCI Cyclo-cross World Cup starting this year in Waterloo, USA and it ends in Hoogerheide in the Netherlands. The series also visits famous spots such as Koksijde, the citadel at Namur, the motor race circuit at Heusden-Zolder and the fearsome Gavere.
The World Championships are set to be held in Denmark in January 2019.
Just below the World Cup is the Telenet Superprestige series which offers regular World-class action in the Netherlands and Belgium. Following on is the Belgium focussed DVV verzekeringen trofee which features probably the most popular race at the infamous Koppenberg.
But these races are just the tip of the iceberg because each country hosts a national series such as the Czech Toi Toi Cup or the Swiss EKZ Cross Tour, both being cross hotbeds that are on the up. In the USA cross has notably exploded in popularity and the Charm City Cross, Gloucester Cup and Waterloo Cup are great events often held over two days. In fact many series have moved to a two day format such as the British National Trophy to enable more races and people to take part.
There are also a myriad of events that are not part of a race series – the evening race Kiremko Nacht van Woerden in the Netherlands, the Kermiscross and the GP Neerpelt held in Belgium. Where ever you look in the UCI calendar there are more gems including action from Japan, Italy, France, Slovakia and Germany.
It really is a busy calendar and watch out for all the action held during the Christmas and New Year season for it includes some mighty events.
As I have done for a few seasons now I will do my best to post race results and video links to UCI rated cyclo cross races. The big issue concerns geo-restrictions on video which may mean a bit of a struggle to find links etc.
Many races are live streamed either by mainstream media or by local organisations and so often we cross fans find ourselves on somewhat dodgy websites attempting to pick up the action.
Livestreams are sometimes available on Eurosport (plus media player), or via such sites as CyclingFans, Steephill or Procyclinglive and do check out event websites for clues about broadcasts (sometimes local and regional channels are good). The UCI YouTube channel should feature the World Cup races.
The Global Cycling Network are to show many of the top races live in the UK – these will include Brico Cross, Superprestige and DVV verzekeringen trofee.
The results page also features web links.

‘Smeets’
International cyclo cross races can be rowdy affairs full of noise, the smell of frites on the wind and ‘Smeets’ on the breath, dodgy disco music assaulting your senses and there are a few who miss the action because of their own excess.
