“It’s an idea that we’ve been working on for a few years,” says Thorne, adding that recent additions to staff have provided the energy and people to make it happen in a meaningful way. Following in the footsteps of national amateur teams like Hup United and Crossniacs, the team will be open to riders throughout the country, regardless of age, experience or ability. Mountain and road riders are welcome, though, given this is the Cyclocrossworld Team, ‘cross will of course be the focus.” Stu Thorne of Cyclocrossworld
