From one Washington County to another, congratulations to Fayetteville AR, which today was announced as the site of the 2022 UCI Cyclocross World Championships! Fayetteville is home to the University of Arkansas in the fast-growing northwest corner of the state. Unlike most other sites that have held the World Championships, Fayetteville has not held a UCI World Cup event. You can bet, though, that USA Cycling will ensure it hosts a couple of C1/C2 weekends in the next few years to prepare.
In 2013, Louisville KY became the first American city to host the World Championships.
The UCI also confirmed today that the United States will continue to host the first two rounds of the World Cup next season: Jingle Cross in Iowa City IA on September 14 and World Cup Waterloo at Trek’s corporate headquarters near Madison on September 22. I'm sure I will be in Waterloo again to spectate. It’s too early to know whether I will be able to attend the World Championships in 2022, but I’m hog wild about the idea!
