LONDON, UK - The 14 British team for the UCI Cyclo-Cross World Championships in Koksijde, Belgium was announced today with Helen Wyman the best known of the team.
The Championships, which will take place on 28 and 29 January, are not expected to bring huge rewards for Britain although the women's team may scrape onto the podium. It will see Wyman, who won her seventh consecutive National Champion title at the weekend, and Ian Field, Steve James and Hugo Robinson, all of whom are 2012 National Champions in their respective age categories, go up against the top cyclo-cross riders in the world.
British team manager Phil Dixon said: “I’m looking forward to seeing National Champions Helen Wyman and Ian Field lead this team forward to the World Championships. I think this year is the strongest the women’s team in particular has been, and I believe they are in a good position to challenge for the podium. For the younger riders, this is the second year of British Cycling’s Cyclo-Cross Development Plan and we’ve got four U23 and three Junior men who will make the start line. I think these guys will put on a good show and I’m looking forward to seeing them push closer to a podium finish at these World Championships.”
