#SVENNESS 2.10

For episode 2.10, SVENNESS travels to Mladá Boleslav, Czech Republic, for the European Championship. We take a look at the U23 race, which features such up-and-coming (or arguably already here) stars as Wout van Aert, Michael Vanthourenhout and Mathieu van der Poel.

The course is a mix of paved road and mud. Nothing in between. However, it is for the most part all ridable and there isn’t more than a couple feet of elevation on the course. This is the first course SVENNESS has visited that is similar to something most amateurs would race on the weekend.

For this race we focus on riding in the mud, cornering, tactics and blocking. The pro moves these young guns are putting on each other as the race gets heated at the end is not to be missed.

  1. How about all those drive side dismounts and remounts. Happened on left and right turn dismounts and in the pits. Even shouldering with the rings against the back at the very end; ouch.
