I hate saying this but this course looks a little boring. As stated below, no barriers, no off cambers, no super steep up hills, no sand. Hopefully there is some weather during the world Championships. I think a fast race on dry yellow grass will be a bit boring.
The grass will be taken away in the week of the World Championships, it was just put there for the cyclocross in octobre, so that theres no damage to the underground.
No barriers or off cambers? Speed can definitely make this a very hard course but if muddy there’s nothing technically challenging for the elite riders. Great World Cup course but maybe not for the World Championship?
I don't think I have seen a DIRT CRIT till now. Bummer. So much for cyclocross. Not really interested in watching who can pedal the biggest gear the longest vs who has REAL CYCLOCROSS skills.
So cool to see the Belgian sponsors along the course!

+ if it will rain on sunday, the race will be very interesting because there will be a lot of mud on the track.

It's part of the rules that there has to be barriers no? Maybe they don't have them setup on the course yet.
Curtis - thanks for this. Really informative. Women’s WC about to start and it’s pouring
People are Always complaining, the surrounding area looks super awesome ! Just enjoy instead of complain
26 psi? Wow that’s really low, I’m a road cyclist, so I put 90 psi
Sick preview The stairs look really tough have fun good luck
Well done dude! Can’t wait!
Van der Poel will love this
You could have a cyclocross race on the Parris Island obstacle course and Van Der Poel would be happy.
Unfortunately, he won't be racing
1 he’s not racing 2 it’s boring, not technical…so not wat he really like’s
Great to see the World Championship course already, now lets see how it will change from today to tomorrow and until january.
Looks like it's gonna be a mudfest tractor pull. It'll be Great!
Really enjoy these videos👍
maybe the only time this guy shows on a race track, but whatever it takes to get out of the lapped pack.
Looks sick. What spot would you pick to spectate from?
Een parcours voor onze junior Victor Vandenberghe, kandidaat op een medaille.
looks like cross Vegas in Fayetteville.
5:20 Weather forcast is Sunny, Dry, No Precip, 39 F, 5 mph breeze
this is sick way better than falmouth
Saw Jolanda in the pit.
Where can we watch live?
In europe it will be on Eurosport or and GCN.
dreaming of a white championship...

It looks like a fun, flowy course, at least when dry. But Astroturf? Why? I'd think Astroturf would be a major crash factory. Thanks for posting.
I think Curtis ment Rolled Turff, but who knows.
there is no Astroturf on the course.
Second that - there is no Astroturf.

Dullest World Championship track ever. Has nothing to do with Cyclocross.
Jesus. Wat a boring course 😬
I don't think I have seen a DIRT CRIT till now. Bummer. So much for cyclocross.

Worst course ever, opposite of Belgium parcours. Speed is not the intension of cyclocross imo.
Is it me or does this look boring af?! It's the same kind of "pavement" straight through this: just grass. WTF?!
