Although we're in the middle of the worldwide COVID-19 pandemic, the 2021 UCI cyclocross world championship has been approved and is moving forward as scheduled for January 30 and 31, 2021. This race promises epic battles for the world title in a course that features a huge beach sand section, plus challenging climbing on two steep flyovers. 

This episode previews the Ostende, Belgium course, the COVID-19 protocol that will be in place, and the favored athletes who are in podium contention. Finally, you'll get my predictions for the Elite Men, Elite Women, U23 Men, and U23 Women categories.
